Hello! Have you had a lovely start to the week so far? We’ve just returned from a lovely camping trip to Molloy Island in the South West of Australia. It’s a beautiful place I didn’t realise existed until just recently. What a hidden gem!
Camping doesn’t involve stamping, so I’ve had a lot of time over the past few days to think about what my Just Add Ink card will look like. My starting inspiration for this week’s sketch challenge was a card I saw on Pinterest by Debbie Henderson that used the new two tone Baker’s Twine from the Occasions catalogue and the Love You Sew hostess stamp set to make little thread bobbins – so cute!
This is the JAI sketch…
Somewhere in the midst of the night sky, open air & freedom that camping provides, it occurred to me that the cute little Bow Paper Clips Embellishments from the Occasions catalogue would make great bobbins.
Turns out, I have good ideas when I’m out camping!
And then, because I had so much fun making this card with my little bobbin twine clips, I made another card using similar elements…
Why stop at one, when two is twice the fun??? Kelly x

Super-cute, Kelly! Such an inspired use of the little bow paper clips; love it. Thanks for joining in the fun at Just Add Ink this week!
Thanks Christine!
Oh this is very cute Kelly! Using the twine tails to create a heart is such a delightful idea! Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week.
Thanks Kim!
Very clever chickadee you are. I love it
Thanks Helen!
Very sweet Kelly – I think this is very inventive. Chantell JAI
Thanks Chantell!
These are both sew sweet (sorry, couldn’t resist), Kelly. The bows make a perfect bobbin & I love how you’ve included the twine heart as the 4th element. Very clever & it really works so well.
Apparently camping does give good ideas, but I’m not going to take the chance – do you think a hotel would work too? ;0) )
Thanks for playing again at Just Add Ink.
Di 🙂
Thanks Di! Sew glad you like it hehe! A hotel might work better – worth a try!
Oh, that’s so cute! What a great idea! Thanks for sharing with us at Just Add Ink.
