Just Inklined to Hop–Lavender and Lace

Today is blog hop day and our super talented Design Team have some amazing projects to show you.

To make the hop more fun, there are 2 hidden spot prizes along the way, chosen from those that leave comments on the blogs.

This months theme is "lavender and Lace" hosted by Gaynor  which is where the blog hop starts.

I’ve used Little Church in the Snow for my card and you can buy it from Just Inklined

I know I stretched the boundaries with the lavender part as mine is on the purple side but hey lavender comes in lots of shades from deep to light yes?

Image coloured with Copic markers and a little bit of snow writer for the rooftop and scenery.

Next up is Lori who always amazes me with her beautiful creations.

Foldi Lamp giveaway–Daylight Company

There are times in a crafters life that you need to pack up a work station and just take it with you which can be done so that no matter where you are going you can whip out the craft and never be bored. I have always done this on my travels but I have often hit a stumbling block in the way of good lighting. It never seams to be in the right place in hotel rooms.

Daylight company have that covered for us

Not only is this lamp a God send but it is slick and stylish too.

Miles in Winter

Another clean and simple card for me using this gorgeous little chap.

Miles in Winter from Mo’s Digital Pencil 

Coloured with Copic markers and Chalk pencils

He’s such a darling isn’t he?

Later this week I have something special to give away, I just need to do the write up for it but believe me you’ll need it, it’s amazing.

Plain Sailing

I’ve really struggled to make a card this last week or so, you get times like that don’t you? life gets so busy and on top of the hustle and bustle of life we nearly have Christmas upon us.

I was lucky enough to get the cold that has been doing it’s round and I still have the hacking cough to prove it, you know the type, the one that waits until you have warmed up in bed then starts until you are so hot and bothered from coughing that you fling the blankets off only to freeze your nads off later. Hey Ho.

So I needed something to ease me back into colouring and this ticked all of the boxes.

Galleon from Just Inklined it is a pencil lined digital stamp and the beauty of this is that the shading in the stamp helps immensely when colouring, it makes it so easy to colour.

I coloured this one with Copic markers as I only have a limited palette in Graph’It although I will add more to my range because I love them.

I used chalk pencils to create the sky.

Clean and simple style with a little bit of designer paper and a button and hemp cord.
