HAPPY FATHERS DAY - JAI #230

To celebrate Fathers Day this Sunday, the design team at Just Add Ink have come up with some gorgeous designs to help celebrate Dad, and we hope you will join us too this week.

Now,  not everyone has a Dad, me included, so I kept manly colours to celebrate the other men in our lives, but I chose not to put a Fathers Day sentiment on my card.  I also used a technique called "bokeh", which is a photography term (see my blog header!), and a trending technique in card making.  I watched this wonderful video by Dawn Woleslagle, before attempting to "bokeh" my card!

This card ended up celebrating a friends birthday and I am pretty sure he liked it, lol.

Join us this week at Just Add Ink and show us what you have done for Dad or the man in your life!!

  3. Paula I think I can safely say you have perfected the bokeh technique! This is stunning and it feels like you can just fall into it there is so much depth! xxx

    1. Aww, thanks Kim! I think the dark colours help, rather than lighter ones.
