No line coloring

I was inspired by Marika's video of no line coloring with flower stamp from Altenew Beautiful Day stamp set.

My first attempt on this type of coloring. I used Magnolia stamp from Altenew. I stamped a second generation stamp on Neenah cardstock and colored with distress inks - Peacock feathers and salty ocean.

I didn't get a bright darker shade for contrast. So used Derwent inktense watercolor pencils for highlighting.Here is the final shaded one.

 The contrast is not so defined since my lighter shade should have been still lighter. I lightened a bit with Derwent inktense white pencil....

Thank you for stopping by. Cheers!

Altenew Feb Challenge.

Here is my take on Altenew's February Challenge.

Birthday card

I wanted to try out a shaker card. So made a small shaker element as a trial and ended adding that to an aperture card. I made the shaker piece with wonky rectangles die and added few sequins and gold glitter balls.

 The 'Happy Birthday' sentiment was die cut and stuck on the shaker piece. An organza ribbon bow with a pearl bling was added to give a delicate touch to the card.

I stamped the sentiment and embossed it in gold. Decorated with handmade flowers using HFC Delightful Daisy die.

On the inner panel I stamped and embossed a cute girl stamp and colored her with copics. A butterfly, also colored with copics to add to the cuteness.

On the inner panel, I added a pocket to insert a photo tag.

gatefold easel card

I was searching for easel card ideas and as usual I searched Christina Griffith's site and she had given a tip of adding a gatefold card to an easel card i.e. two - in - one. So here goes my creation.

 Colored this cute girl with Zig clean clear brush pens. 

Flowers from Altenew stamp Beautiful Day, as stopper for the easel and colored again with Zig pens.

Layered the flower and added foam tape to give dimension.

Hope you like this card. Thank you for stopping by.

Coloring on vellum

Hi there,

I have seen fabulous cards with coloring on vellum and so I wanted tried my hand in that. Here is a gratitude card I made, since it is the time for sharing and thanksgiving.

 I stamped the flower images and heat embossed with white embossing powder and used Zig brush pens for coloring. I used Spellbinder die to create a window and layered it with die cuts from Memory Box dies to create Faux laser cut effect (inspired by Jennifer McGuire). The sentiment is heat embossed in gold.

Sharing Handmande Kindness

I made this card to cheer up someone who is suffering from cancer. Even though I don't know her personally, I felt I should try my best to brighten up her day by sharing my handmade card.

I colored the flowers with Zig clean color brush pens and layered with Spellbinder dies. 
Inner panel I stamped a wonderful sentiment and a butterfly. I also added a personal message.

Hope this cheers her up!

Peacock theme

I had made quilled peacock feather on tags. My third attempt as a center piece for this card. I layered the peacock feather to give a recessed window effect and covered it with an acetate sheet. I used Heartfelt Creations dies for flowers.

 The inner panel is stamped with HFC Peacock paisley stamp, colored with copics and cut with coordinating die. The feathers are also from the same collection. 
 

Hope you liked my card. Thanks for stopping by.
