It's time for another fun challenge at Just Add Ink and this week we have a fab mood board to inspire you.

What do you see when you look at the mood board? I saw terracotta/apricot and sage greens plus the wee ginger kitten stole my heart. So I have ended up working with different greens than I normally would, which was actually quite a lot of fun. I'm sure I'm not the only person who gets stuck in the same rut and would normally work with bright yellow-greens to craft with. I've also added a wee kitty as well - one ginger and a wee grey tabby one, representing my fur baby Cinder.

I started by lightly blending some Shabby Shutters Distress Oxide ink in the top left hand corner. I then used a Leafy Background stencil (PFS), which is a set of 3 stencils to add Cracked Pistachio, Evergreen Bough and Lucky Clover. 



I have Copic coloured up Newton's Blooms (NN) and tried to only colour with Apricot/Terracotta/Sage green tones. 

Copics used:


Ginger kitty: Y38 YR21/20 E000 R32/30
Grey kitty: W6/4/2 R32/30
Terracotta pot:  E19 YR27/24
Green leaves/grass/ pot: G85/82
Apricot flowers: Y38  YR02/61/20
White flowers: Y38 BG000
Bee: Y38 YR27 BG000

Well I sincerely hope you have a purr-fect day and you can find some time to play along with us. Do check out the fab inspiration from the Just Add Ink team, we'd love to see what inspired you.

Thanks for popping in.
