Just Add Ink Challenge #543 Sketch

 This weeks JAI Challenge is a sketch challenge.  I'd been playing around with squares of card with opposite corners rounded so thought I would do something similar for this Challenge.

So here is my card














I ended up with a lot of little bits of paper and card all over the floor. I had also made this card.  I wanted to use a stamp that I hadn't used much.  I embossed using an old SU stamp Hello Doily.

The pitter patter of little paws.

 Recently my friend Jill's lovely whippet Harley passed away.  Understandably we were all very upset so it came as a huge surprise and great excitement when Jill told us she had been offered a new puppy!  Not only from the same breeder but Harleys great nephew.  Jill's other dog Jetta loved having a brother so we hope Darcey will help her get over the loss and they will soon be firm friends.  

I wanted to make a special card to welcome little Darcey (yep Mr Darcey) into the fold. So I made this wee card for Jill and Jetta.

I often use the Just add Ink blog for inspirations but hadn't submitted a card into there challenge or blogged since 2015!  So I thought this was the perfect opportunity to do both.

This #541 challenge is to use a blended background.

I sponged the background and stamped the Toitoi (plants).  The silhouette images I found on the internet and cut them out with black card stock.  Sorry I can't remember where I got them from.
