Hi there. Welcome to addINKtive designs. I’m so glad you’re visiting my blog today. If you follow what I’m up to you’ll know that I haven’t been up to much lately (not much paper crafting that is).
I took January off to declutter every room in the house – I’m starting to see ‘the light at the end of the tunnel’ as I only have the garage and my craft room left to sort. I’m also back doing some casual work in the form of relief teaching and my mum hasn’t been well; she’ll need to go into hospital soon. Hubby and I have just returned from a short stay in Melbourne where we attended the Victorian Caravan, Camping and Touring Supershow. We pick up our Motorhome (RV) next week so that will throw a huge curve ball into trying to schedule card classes at home as we intend to be on the road a lot!! In April I’ll be attending ‘On Stage Live’, a Stampin’ Up! event in Auckland, New Zealand and there will be plenty of stuff to organise before I head off. My days have been FULL to overflowing. Whoever said ‘retirement’ was dull.
So … there are quite a few new stamp sets and dies that have been feeling rather neglected of late and it was so good to ink up a new Sale-a-bration (FREE) Stamp set called Lasting Lily to make this Window Box Bridge Fold Card and write an accompanying tutorial.
This is an original card fold that I designed a while back and you will need to own the Window Box Thinlits Dies to construct it.
Lasting Lily is such a versatile stamp set but especially appropriate for when you’re in need of a Sympathy Card –
The finished measurements when the card is folded flat is H – 5″ x W – 6-1/2″, so you’ll need to make a custom sized envelope with the Envelope Punch Board –
I’m pleased to be back creating again and hope to publish some more tutorials soon. A huge big thank you to my customers that have popped in an SU order or two or bought some of my tutorials while I’ve been ‘MIA’. It helps to maintain my ‘active’ status as a demonstrator … so thanks again! Just remember that when you place an order over $50 in my on-line store, I will email you a copy of my latest tutorial for FREE. Just click on any product link at the end of the post to take you there. Happy shopping!
Here’s where you can purchase my latest tutorial –
… or for an extra $1 (AUD) you can download both tutorials –

Thanks for dropping by,
Beautiful card, and welcome back.
Thanks, Lawanda. It felt really good to get back in my craft room yesterday.
This is so pretty
Thanks, Tracy. The ‘Lasting Lily’ SAB stamp set sure is gorgeous.
A lovely card.
You are not alone in the decluttering. Several trips to the op shop and more to go! Need to still do a few places in my house too.
