I is for Ink...

Good morning lovely friends...

A bit of news from me - I have had to review my card making commitments - I love this super blog world but things have got a bit busy!

So - I have made a really difficult decision to step down from a few of my wonderful Design Teams.

 I have said goodbye to Creative Inspirations which has been hard for me because lovely Natalie gave my my first DT chance over 12 months ago - I am really grateful to her for that.  

Creative Inspirations is a super twice monthly challenge and I know the team would love to see you there.

Anyways, on to today - 

We have a new challenge starting at 
I is For Ink
(Christmas Ink Only though)!

Our Sponsor this week is 
with a very generous £10 voucher for their beautiful store.
For my card today I chose the gorgeous digital stamp Wryn - Reindeer Games by Tiddly Inks

I coloured this beautiful image with Copics and made a background with white embossed snowflakes which then resisted the distress ink 'splodged' (technical term)! over the top.

Simples this one eh!

I must say thank you to the very talented Jeanette - Happy Thoughts and Inkspots who inspired me to make this card with a very beautiful similar card she made last year.

Hi Sue, Love your Tiddly Inks card, I'm only just getting past the basic black ink pad to add a sentiment, my new ink sprays are glaring at me now waiting to join in... Thank you for the wonderful inspiration... Megan

This is beautiful, love the image and beautifully coloured. Fab background too. Sorry to see you stepping down but I know how busy it can be with too many DT commitments, that is why I am only on a few nowadays x

A beautiful inky background Sue and such a gorgeous image. Life gets too hectic sometimes and we have to make hard decisions for our own sanity, it's sad to leave a lovely DT family but we all understand.

Beautiful work Sue, Wrynn is a favourite of mine (must dig her out and have a play!!) and you have coloured her perfectly. I "trimmed" my Dt commitments last year. I found I was enjoying the creativity less and less because of deadlines to meet and then couldn't get inspiration!! xx

Lorraine said...

She looks gorgeous Sue, beautifully coloured and I love the background

Hi Sue... this is definitely an OMG card......... your colouring really is stunning (how many times do I say that?!), and then that starry sky...... WOW!! Of course, you cost me as I had to buy the starry stamp - even though I have the die to match already! LOL!
