It's beginning to look at lot like Christmas........but not here at Inkspirational! We say 'Bah Humbug!' to Christmas. Show us anything you've made that has NOT got a Christmas theme. 

Like Scrooge, Inkspirational challenges will NOT be taking a Christmas break. But just to help us manage our workload we ask, just for this challenge  :

One Entry Only Please




Please meet our amazing Guest Designer : 

Shirley 






Hi, I’m Shirley and I love nothing more than sloshing and splattering Distress Inks onto my cards.  You can find plenty of evidence on my blog, shirley-bee’s stamping stuff.  I like to switch between different styles, from one layer CAS to mixed media and everything in between, but as long as it includes Distress Inks, I’m happy.  I have my own line of stamps, The Bee’s Knees, sold through STAMPlorations, and I’m on several design teams.  I live in the UK with my husband and rescue dog.

 There are so many cute details in this card, but Susan still achieved a clean look! Also, who can resist a cute love scene!

Challenge #97 - Flake


Welcome back to Inkspirational. This time we want to see your interpretation of the word prompt 'flake'.

First, please meet our fabulous Guest Designer :

Jane 







My name is Jane and I blog about cardmaking and cookery over at Onions and Paper http://onionsandpaper.blogspot.co.uk/ . I've been a crafter all my life - and as I'm now a granny to four, that's a long time! But I only took up cardmaking about 15 years ago - before that I did mostly knitting and cross stitch. I love stamping, encaustic painting, cards with a masculine theme, fancy folds - well, to be honest I love it all! 


Here's what our DT made:

Challenge #96- Photo Inkspiration




Welcome back! This week we have an inkspirational photo for you. 
Please welcome our wonderful Guest Designer:

Asha 








Hello! My name is Asha - animal lover and the person behind Sunny Summer Crafts.  4 years ago I had the brilliant idea of making a scrapbook album of my friend's wedding. I instantly fell in love cardmaking and have made hundreds of cards since. Sadly the wedding album remains unfinished! I don't subscribe to any crafting style and will go with whatever takes my fancy. Right now I am engaged in a torrid affair with my Faber-Castell Polychromo pencils.  


Here's some inspiration from our Design Team:
