Just Add...Blue JAI#39 + optional add-on

TGIF ~

Another special week ... Over at Just Add Ink we are recognising Anxiety and Depression Awareness month. Find out more at the fabulous Beyond Blue site.

My card base is the gorgeous new Marina Mist, the scallop layers Baja Breeze and an assortment of both inks using the I {heart} Hearts stamp set. I finished off with a little Marina Mist Satin ribbon - I love love love the Satin ribbons. If you haven't already purchased any go out and get yourself some, it is truly divine!

Now there is an optional add-on challenge this week, and that is to do something nice for someone for no reason - a Random Act of Kindness (RAK). My card was given to a very deserving friend yesterday. She is struggling with her own anxieties and depression more than usual at the moment and to know she has friends and support is very important!

Head over to JAI and check out the other gorgeous DT projects.

Hope you've all had a lovely week and have some fun and exciting plans for the weekend! Take care.

  3. Hey there P!

    This card is so lovely and I can only imagine how much your friend appreciated it! I loved the challenge this week and couldn't wait to make a card this morning!

    RAK's are beautiful, but so are words, so I just want to say that I think you are the most beautiful kind hearted person and a fantastic mother, and I'm so glad we're friends!:)

    Mwah!

    I thought I could live without Marina Mist...but now I'm not so sure ;-). It is a really beautiful shade.

    Best wishes,

  11. LOVE those hearts in blues - what a great idea. Your card is beautiful, lovey :) The only problem with the satin ribbon is having to decide which colours to buy, because they are ALL divine!!
