Distress ink Mosaic Cards

Hi friends

As the year end closes in, trying to update the various projects i missed out. The following cards were part of the Teacher's day series. Mosaic cards are easy to mass produce. 

Here the butterfly is coated with glossy accents.

 Also i made few mini cards. Used some bakers twine for the front panel and the sentiment is heat embossed.

Love the look of it. Simple & effective. 

Thats it for today. Thanks for dropping by.

Neon Butterflies!!!

Hi crafty peeps,

Ok first things first!!!
yaay I am the winner in Mudra #1-Anythings goes. So very happy about this. This win comes after a long time and also on my first try @ stamping. yaaay

I am back after another big break. Last weekend i made quiet a few cards, yeah only cards. Since i started stamping, i am hooked to it. Usually i prefer Fun fold cards but boy! Stamping is much more interesting than that.

Ok before the new cards, id like to post about a small card i did some time back.

Neon Notecards

Neon Butterflies

You are amazing

I did a bunch of them for Teachers' day and my kids loved it. The butterfly is stamped and fussy cut (stamp set from cat's meow) with Hero Arts Neon cubes. The sentiment is Heat embossed.

This is a pretty small card, more like a note card. I also did a bigger version and u can check it out here. 

Thats it for today. Waiting to post more cards using stamping. Thanks for dropping by folks. Feels good to be back.

cya,

Pink & Gold

Hello there,

Keeping this blog alive amidst busy days. I made this card for Teacher's Day for my daughter. Here too i have tried few stuff new to me.... Stenciling & Embossing


 

First i clear embossed the piece of card stock with script stamp and then i have stenciled randomly with TH honey comb stencil in worn lipstick. I also inked the edges with the same. The centre panel has the same script stamp stamped with Worn lipstick. The sentiment is heat embossed in gold. 

And see those gorgeous butterflies. I stamped and fussy cut the butterfly and gave it a thick coat of glossy accents. And it sure looks Glassy :) The smaller butterflies are punched and embossed in gold. 

Finally mounted it on card base with a golden strip. So how is my card? I enjoyed making it...... with lots of trial & error. See you with another card soon. 

Happy weekend!!!

My First Water colouring

Hi people..

Glad to be trying some new stuff. Here is my first try on water colouring. Loved doing it. I got some Mudra Stamps recently and i have been colouring like crazy.

For my first try here, i heat embossed it in gold and then coloured the image with DI (worn lipstick and peeled paint). Then fussy cut it and mounted on card base. some glossy accents for the dews. Sentiment is again heat embossed in gold on vellum.

A close up of the water colouring

The card looks grand and glittery IRL. I gifted this to a friend for their house-warming (yeah, another).

Next i wanted to try colouring it without embossing, and here it is

I liked this a little better than the previous one, it has more scope for shading and differentiating the colours. Here i have used worn lipstick and candid apple for the flowers. Same layout again.. 

Next i tried no line colouring. Am soo new to this techniques that i had to do some mistakes. First have a look @ the card.

haha... green flowers!!! very rare :0

For no line colouring i knew u had to stamp the images with a lighter shade colour, and so i stamped it with yellow DI and coloured it with peacock feathers........... so (yellow +blue) became green. I did have a hard time making the leaves look different from the flowers :0 :0 :0

My DI collection is small so i had to adjust with what i had.

Then i stamped the image again with peacock feathers and coloured with the same. Here is the card.

Now this looks a little better i guess. I also used tumbled glass for shading & differentiating. Here is a look at all cards together.

Ok thats it from me today. Any water colouring tips and new techniques would be highly appreciated. Also do comment on which is ur fav watercolouring technique.

Thanks for dropping by,
Hugs!!!

Teachers' Day Cards

Hello all...

Today am sharing a few cards made for Teachers' day. Have a look at it. Its all easy to do cards, I used my scrap PPs mostly.

An Easel card

Design 1

Design 2

Design 3

Design 4

My favourite is the 3rd design. Loved how the 'pencil' turned out. PPs, washi tapes and die cuts can really jazz up any project quickly and beautifully.

Do tell me which one is your favourite card. Also dont forget to link up for my blog candy here, it closes on Sep 10th.

Thanks for dropping by
