ADDINKTIVE DESIGNS

I love making 3D cards, I love a fun Card Challenge and I love the fact that my craft area has moved to a spare room inside the house. I've set up a comfortable, clean and tidy, organized space where it's warm and cozy and I have left the mess of the converted garage/rumpus room behind.  My mojo is back and I have spent some of Mother's Day in my 'happy place' making a birthday card for a friend.

Hi there.  Welcome to addINKtive designs. A week ago I made a fold over window card and really loved the design so much so that I wanted to create another.  This time I used LeAnn Greff's Tutorial ; followed her measurements but used a balloon die instead of the circle punch and made this birthday card for one of my nieces. I have used three challenges today for inspiration -   FMS 178, CC 31, AW 37 Challenge #1 - A Sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #178 Challenge #2 - Cupcake Theme at the Card Concept #31   Card Style: Classy and Elegant     Challenge #3 - Around the World Stampin' Up! ® Challenges #37- Confetti       A Fold Over Window Card Confetti stamp from Celebrate Today stamped with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder onto a Window Sheet (acetate).

Hi there.  Welcome to add INK tive designs.  I'm entering this card that I made today in the latest challenge at The Card Concept .  My sister wanted me to make a wedding card to give to her ex-sponsor child in Indonesia, so I went in search of a starting point and just loved the colour palette and photo inspiration for CC#28.   The Card Concept #28 - Romantic Roses Shabby Chic (Vintage) Style           The card has a closure made from the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch with a pocket inside for a gift card or letter. The butterfly was cut from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper and coloured with the darkest shade from the  Pink Pirouette Blendabilities . The Card Concept have a variety of card 'styles' that the DT use to inspire.  I think mine falls into the Shabby Chic/Vintage style. Thanks for stopping by,
