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!

Hi there and welcome to addINKtive designs. Today I have a Planter Box Card to share with you. After a bit of a craft 'slump' three challenges finally got me motivated and back into my craft room ... so a big thank you to all the DT members for their inspiration. This card is similar to the one that I made for mum for Mother's Day but I changed the measurements slightly so it's a little shorter and have included a mini tutorial at the end of this post if you would like to make one too. 1. Colour Challenge - Global Design Project #005 The colour challenge at the Global Design Project is just perfect for spring and I really, really love the combo!

SUO Challenge - #132 Punch It Up The second challenge that I have entered is at SU Only where the theme is to feature PUNCHES. Here's my list of Stampin' Up! punc...
Hi there. I've been eying off some great examples of Z-fold, pop-up cards on Pinterest and thought it would be fun to make one. I tweaked the basic design a little by adding some inserts; the ones you use in card-in-a-box style cards. So I've called my take on this fun fold, a Pop-Up, Z-Fold, Card in a Box! - It's a crate full of summer strawberries with some home-made strawberry jam sitting on the kitchen bench. Summer Strawberries This card was made for a dear friend's birthday and I'm also entering it into two card challenges - JAI #318 - "Just Add S" S is for ... strawberries, strawberry jam, straw and summer! Thanks, JAI! and ... JUGs #350 - Word Week Here's a bird's eye view before I added all the stamped strawberries etc. - Folds flat and fits inside a standard (C6) card size envelope - Thanks for stopping by, Please note that...
