JUST ADD SUMMER #49

I hope everyone has had a lovely break over Christmas and enjoyed some Family time, as I have.  We spent a lovely 5 days with family at Waitarere Beach.  The weather was percfect, and there was also the odd sunburn!!  Not me, thankfully, blahaha!  It certainly put me in the right mood to design my entry for JUST ADD INK this week.  The theme - Just Add Summer.

Nothing says summer to me like fresh, colourful flowers of any variety.  I have chosen to use Sweetpeas and trellis this week.  I have put a very colourful sun with rays behind the trellis, but, unfortunately, you can't see the full effect.  But I have already decided to do another card with this sponged creation as the main feature.  Watch this space!  I got the idea for the trellis from Valita Reynolds and you can check out her video tutorial HERE

Don't you just love these gorgeous little flowers?  They are so easy to make and you can't go wrong when you are scrunching cardstock!!  It is yet another tutorial on my list of things to do!!  Watch this space :-)

The Design Team have come up with some fabulous ideas, yet again, so be sure to go check out the designs and spread some comment love while you are there!
