Just Add Ink Challenge #54 - Colour

Bliss Corner Bookmark

I decided to try something different other than a card and stumbled across a tutorial for a corner bookmark. I have, however, gone for the beautiful Sale-a-bration stamp set called, Bliss, yet again!! I LOVE it and I especially love the gorgeous colour combo for this week's challenge at Just Add Ink.



The Scrumptious Colour Palette



Beate Johns has a great tutorial in the resource section at Splitcoast Stampers on how to make a Corner Bookmark if you're wanting to give one a try. You can find it HERE.



I borrowed a very old copy of Pride and Prejudice that my daughter had bought from the Antique Emporium in Devonport to do my mini photo shoot.


Thanks for stopping by and thank you to all those lovely people that regularly leave a comment. I appreciate the feedback.




PS: Thanks again, to Nancy Riley for choosing this as one of her ipicks for #118. It made my day!

Loved the idea, what a gorgeous shaped book mark! and how you used the colours, with Rose Red at the end and Regal for the butterfly (or maybe the other way round but looks wonderful).

Just Add Colour with a Mini Photo Wallet

Image
Photo Wallet and Butterfly Easel Card The Colour Combo for Just Add Ink's 57th Challenge Butterfly Easel Card I designed a butterfly easel card for my latest project at UStamp with Dawn and Friends using the Punch Bunch Stamp Set . For this challenge I popped the little butterfly from the Bliss Set , added some pearls and stamped the gorgeous flourish from the same SAB stamp set to form the background pattern for both die cut butterflies. I also sponged around the edges with River Rock Ink. PS: Thanks again to Nancy Riley for choosing this card as one of her iPicks for this week! Inside the Photo Wallet This would make a Lovely Hostess Gift (especially for a scrap-booking enthusiast) Complete with Photo Mats Instructions for the Photo Wallet can be found HERE .

You'll Read it here First - I have some Big News!

 Hi Peeps, I've popped on here to let you know that my AddINKtive Designs 'Business' is being redirected ... I haven't posted on this blog for a long time because over the last 9 years I have been operating from my own website, addinktivedesigns.com but I've made the HUGE decision to shut down that domain mid-July (2025) and to start afresh. You may have noticed that I tried to do a big 'catch up' on this blog by adding some blog posts from my website a couple of years back but that was always going to be a mammoth task to complete, plus my INSTA handle has been @bronwyneastleydesigns for a while now to better reflect what I do (I also love to knit clothing accessories and sew mohair bears).  AddINKtive Designs  is also associated with my time at Stampin' Up!®. I very rarely 'add ink' (stamping) to my projects preferring to use pretty papers and embossed die-cuts from Paper Rose Studio and recently joined their Design Team.  My life has taken a ...

Scallop Circle Easel Card Tutorial

Image
Punch Potpourri Scallop Circle Easel Card in the Dynamic Duo of Melon Mambo and Pretty in Pink 1. Score a piece of card stock through the middle (which is double the length of your die) and line up the folded piece over the Scallop Circle Die (SCD) leaving 4 scallops at the top to form the base of your card. This is how it should look after you run it through the Big Shot Machine . 2. Score a line through the middle of the top Scallop Circle and fold upwards. 3. Apply Sticky Strip or glue to half the Scallop Circle as shown above. 4. Cut out a single Scallop Circle in the same colour (Melon Mambo) and stick it to the folded half so the top layer sits up like an easel (The top half that is facing will now be a double layer and the bottom half, a single layer of card stock). 5. Cut two circles using the lighter shade (Pretty In Pink) and attach one to the base of the card. Sponge around the edges with the darker shade of ink before gluing the other circle to the front of the c...
