Hi there.  I'm just a little bit excited today as I have my very first video tutorial to share with you!  Yep ... I talk in this one but I was extremely nervous at the thought of being recorded.  I'm also waiting on an extended tripod for my iPhone so I can record from a bird's eye view rather than from the side of my craft desk.  All I can say is, I have my 'L' plates on and can only improve with practice :).  I would value some feedback, so if you can offer me any video tips and tricks, feel free to leave a comment or flick me an email. Double Butterfly Flip Card with Watercolor Wings     So grab a cuppa to stay awake as it's nearly ten minutes long.  There's no need to write down the measurements as I have included those details in this post.  Have fun watching!

Hi there.  Welcome to addINKtive designs .  Today I made the most of the last day of my holiday break; I spent some time making a card and a short technique video to share with you.  I love it when a good plan all works out and you can tick a few things off your 'to do' list, however, it may be midnight before I head off to bed :) Floral Wings Butterfly Flip Card     I needed to make a Sympathy Card, wanted to try out a new card fold, ink up a new stamp set, try out a fun technique, improve my editing skills in iMovie and use some challenges for inspiration.  Phew!  It was a long list.   The Challenges   1.

... Butterflies! As the saying goes, "Everything old is new again"!  I decided to recreate my 'old' Butterfly Easel Card (which was made from the now retired Beautiful Butterflies Dies ), using current Stampin' Up! products. Here's the New Version made from the Bold Butterfly Framelits and Butterflies Thinlits Dies  Compare the Two - Old Versus New      Project Recipe: Stamps:   Six-Sided Sampler ( My Friend sentiment) Ink and Card Stock:   Blushing Bride Accessories:   Bold Butterfly Framelits, Butterflies Thinlits Dies, Lovely Lace Embossing Folder, Stamping Sponge, 2015-2017 In Color Blossom Accents (Tip Top Taupe)

Just in case you hadn't noticed, The Gold Trend is very popular in paper craft at the moment and Just Us Girls' Challenge this week is to " incorporate gold somewhere on your card and/or project ".  I jumped right in as I have wanted to see what Gold Glitter mixed with Crystal Effects would look like painted onto an image with a fine brush (I have done this technique with Dazzling Diamond s before). All I can say is, I love the way it turned out; so sparkly!    As you can see this is a slider card and the base was made at the Interactive Card Class I went to last week that two of my down line ran.  Jo demonstrated this technique and would you believe that this is the first time I have made a card like this!  Crazy, right? ... considering it's like an easel card :)  I didn't stay late to finish it as I wanted to use a more girly stamp set and make a thank you card for a friend; I was itching to ink up Awesomely Artistic after seeing so many be...
