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 different direction and I'm enjoying retirement ... I don't want my paper crafting to consume a huge chunk of my time. Hubby and I have a new RV (Motorhome) and love to explore this beautiful state and country of ours and my DT work for Paper Rose Studio 'fills my crafty bucket'. Running a website and the time and expense that goes into it all is something I don't want to expend my energy on.  

I have decided to start a new blog; it's still a work in progress as I continue to add some important catch up posts for my DT work with Paper Rose Studio. From July 1st all of my blog posts will be published at https://bronwyneastleydesigns.blogspot.com/ If you are a subscriber to this blog or my website, I hope you'll pop on over to my new one and subscribe. It's pretty safe to say I won't be moving again!

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 . My Tutorial for the Butterfly Easel Card can be found HERE .

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...

CASEing the Catty Blog Hop - Mother's Day

Image
Hi there and welcome to add INK tive designs.   I'm first on the hop for our Friday night CASE-ing the Catty Blog Hop.  We are a group of Stampin' Up! ® Demonstrators who love to use the SU Catalogues for inspiration. This week we are looking at the Mother's Day  section in the Occasions Catalogue - pages 36 and 37. When this post goes live, eight of the CTC Crew will be catching up at an after party on the Gold Coast , at the last Stampin' Up! ®  South Pacific Convention as we know it.  I'm sure I will have some pics to share in another post, so stay tuned. A Planter Box Card for Mum I really, really love my mum because this card took a whole morning to make.  I combined the instructions from two demonstrators, Linda Bauwin and Rebecca Hopper , on Stampin' Connection ,   to make my Planter Box Card. Here's what inspired me on pages 36 and 37 of the Occasions Catty - The Colour Palette from the Pain...
