My Galaxy card

Hello there crafters....

My first post for March!!
I was soo fascinated with all the galaxy bg cards and i was inspired to do one. Here is my humble attempt at it.

I started off with the idea of a moon and and after few trial this seemed better, that is the sentiment on the moon. The sentiment is heat embossed in silver and slightly distressed with pumice stone DI. 

Background

For the bg i have used Faded Jeans, dusty concord and pumice stone. And when i was pretty satisfied with it i splashed it with white acrylic paint. 

Shaker

I made a small window with nested rectangle dies and added acetate sheet. Some silver sequins to finish it off. Also i have added silver twine below the Moon. 

Thats it for today. Hope you liked it. Thanks for dropping by and have a great week ahead.

Unicorn shaker card

Hello all,

Here is a quick post from me. Its a fun Unicorn shaker card. I actually wanted to do a slider card, but a shaker card was easier to finish for me. So do expect a slider card very soon.

Also Unicorns are my daughter's all time favourite. She is quite a reader and recently she has taken an immense liking to Linda Chapman's Unicorn School. So this card is for my lil darling girl.

Have a look at my unicorn,

The stamp set is from Avery elle 'Be a unicorn'. The images are gold embossed on watercolour paper and coloured with Distress inks. 

I have used my new Pumice stone Distress inks for the frame and the sentiment. The sentiment is from Peekaboo designs. Below is a close of the unicorn. I have tried watercolouring with multicolours on the unicorn mane and tail.

Filled the shaker with silver sequins and red stars. Dont ask about this combo... jus went with my crafty gut feeling.

Thanks a lot for dropping by.
Bye bye guys
Bye Feb.
xoxo

Hi crafty heads,

Am soo excited to share this card today. take a look

Here is another card i coloured with my kids Faber Castell colour pencils. The image is a free digi from the net. I applied a layer of Mod-podge for the glossy look. But the most exciting part for me is the bg. I recently bought a pumice stone DI and i love it. Still trying out different possibilities with it.

After blending in worn lipstick & pumice stone i splashed some water drops and heat dried it. The sentiment is heat embossed. The card front and base are cut from Peekaboo stitched rectangles.

Oh i love clicking photos with props. And i love the girl's pose. Soo lovely.

Thanks for dropping by today. 

PS..Am planning to buy some Artist colour pencils (not water colour pencils though), can anyone suggest the best.

xoxo

You rule my World!

Hi all,

so happy to share a dear card of mine. I loved making it. Here is the card

Yeah, the castle stamp- its gorgeous and am loving it. Its been sleeping too long and am glad it has finally seen the light of the day. And also TH honey comb is my fav now, love it. 

For the card, first i went about and stencilled the pattern with yellow, orange & red DI. Then stamped the image on a separate watercolour sheet and heat embossed it in gold before fussy cutting it.

I wanted to add more interest to the card and hence splashed some black ink with a brush and added sequins to the bg. And now before adhering the castle, added some silver twine behind it for more added interest 

Close up of the bg

The sentiment is from Peekaboo and i loved the mix up possibilities in this set. The sentiment is Heat embossed in black on vellum. May be i should try another card without the vellum and stamping the sentiment directly on the bg. what do u say gals??

Happy Monday all!!

Happy to share a LO today,

YOU & ME Layout

I loved this PP from prima and exclusively did this LO for the sake of the PP. Love it to bits. The only tedious work was to fussy cut the wordings. The wordings were actually from an previous gift my husband gave me. Gave a new feel to those. 

I started out with the photo placement and the wordings. Rest fell into place easily. The butterflies u see near the cycle is paper pierced from another pp. 

Charms, MDF, washi, heart blings, heart paper clip, twine and some distressing/stamping and finally am done.

Hope u liked it. Thanks for stopping by today.

Have a great week ahead

Love you...

Hello folks,

I haven't been around here for more than 3 months. Crafting always but no time to post. Ok no stories, straight to the card. Creating a simple card is always a tough job for me. scrapbooks, explosion boxes and interactive cards are ok for me but simple one layer cards... nope!!!

Check out the card and gimme your comments gals

What started out as a simple one layer card, ended up as a shaker card. 

Am never that good at heat embossing, so finally ordered Goodbye Static!! Lets c, hope my next project with heat embossing turns out good.

For the shaker elements, i added tiny star confetti, and also stuck few stars as bling.

The card looks a lil better IRL. Hoping to brush up on a few new card making skills soon.

See you soon again (hopefully)

Valentine day card #2

Hello again friends,

Here is the second card i tried this Valentines'. My favourite one!!1I almost had a different idea for this but ended up with a completely different one(it happens a lot with me ;)) I am not much foresighted i guess. 

 Its been a while since i played distress inks in my cards. Mostly i use DI only in the corners of my scrapbook pages. So loved this card wen i got to do more with DI. It all started with the grass, then tried with the negative of the clouds, and finally for the sentiment. Am just a novice with DI colouring

Do give ur ideas of how u would have done this card. Would you have added anything more to build this card or done anything differently. Do share ut views, i would love to improve with DIs.

Thanks a lot for dropping by

Valentines' day Card #1

Hello all,

trying to stay active in blog land. ok today here is my card for dear hubby for Valentines. Made a card for simply the reason of crafting after a long while, no orders, no commission.

Its been long since i made simple open n close cards, i prefer interactive and multi layered cards but this one was fun creating. It was a quick one. The hot air balloons are cameo cut as i dint have a die for it. I added the basket weave design for slight texture. Slight distressing and doodling here and there. 

That's it today, thanks for dropping by and for ur lovely comments. Thanks again

Sujana
