Colored vellum flowers.

Hello again,

Here I am sharing another card I made using Altenew stamp - Wild Hibiscus.

I stamped the images on vellum and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I colored on the reverse side with Copic markers and fussy cut the images.


I diecut two pieces of white cardstock with the Altenew Mid Century Frame die, and stuck them to get a sturdier and dimensional effect.
I smooshed some distress ink on white cardstock to create a background and layered it with pink cardstock and stuck them on the card base. I arranged the flowers and leaves on the frame die and finished off with few clear drops and splatter of black paint.



Hope you liked my card. Till next time - Happy crafting!!

Card with Dahlia Blossoms

Hi there,

Today I am sharing a card I made with Altenew Dahlia blossoms. I have used Zig colors pens for coloring.
I stamped the image with Archival black ink. I masked the first image and stamped using the smaller flowers stamp. I stamped a few leaves also. After I finished coloring, I colored the background near the image with light grey zig color.





I added a few splatter of black and white paint. I added a few enamel dots too. The sentiment is from Beautiful Day stamp set.

Card with Altenew 'Adore You' stamp.

Hi there,

After a long time I am back with coloring, which I enjoy especially with Altenew stamps. So I got my hands on the 'Adore You' stamp set recently, (better late than never 😄) and used it for my card.

I planned to use my Zig color brush pens. so I stamped the image with Archival black ink onto a Canson watercolor paper. I masked and stamped the images.


I offset the panel and layered with mauve color cardstock and mounted it on the card base. The sentiment is from Altenew Oriental Orchid stamp set. I finished off with splatter of black color and few enamel dots.



Hope you liked my card. Linking this card to Altenew August Challenge.





Till next time Happy Crafting!

Special Anniversary card

Hi there,


Here is a card I made recently for a wedding anniversary, a gift from kids to their parents. I love interactive cards, So I made a twist and pop up card.

The card measures 6" x 6" and the pop up panels - 3.5" x 2.75". I have used Graphic 45 'Floral Shoppe' pattern paper.


I embellished the front panel with my handmade foamiran and paper flowers. 



Is any project using G45 papers complete without fussy cutting? Lol.... few fussy cut elements on the front panel. I foiled the sentiment on the front with Minc machine. the glare on the gold foil is giving it a dark look. 



On the inner panels, I added messages which were foiled with pink foil. 








Hope you liked my card. Till I see you next time with another project - Happy crafting!!

Trifold baby album

Hello,

This is a late post since I was busy with shifting my house and settling down.
Today I am sharing a trifold album, as my DT project for ScrapMir. This my last DT project for them. I enjoyed creating all the projects with their amazing paper collections. It was really an honor to be part of the Design Team.

So here is my project:



I decorated the front panel with burlap and few scrap pieces from the paper pack. I added a chipboard frame and a tag which can be removed and the baby's picture can be added. I embellished with flair buttons and epoxy stickers. I finally added a few handmade foamiran flowers.






Fussy few images and made a pocket with tags for journalling. 




The album has three folds to hold pictures and tags for journalling. I am sharing a video of the album. 






Hope you liked my project. Do leave some love in the comments below. Till next time 

Happy Crafting!!

Simple Flowers - DT post for Scrap Mir

Hello,

Today I am sharing two projects I made for ScrapMir using their beautiful Paper pack - 'Simple Flowers'

The first project is a layout using the 8x8 paper pack.




I distressed the edges of my base layer and created texture using Heavy Gesso from Prima and Tim Holtz Harlequin stencil. I created layers with the pattern paper and used the chipboard frames to create a diagonal pattern. 






I printed a quote and used that as the focal image. I used only the doodle flower die cuts that comes in the die cuts pack. I added some flair buttons and enamel dots from my stash.

The second project is a box frame.



I created a box frame with a 12x 12 paper from another paper pack - 'Charming'. 
I used one of the paper from 'Simple Flowers' to line the inside of the frame. 




I printed a sentiment and used the golden chipboard frame to highlight it and stuck it inside. I added foam tape to create dimension. I used the coloured flowers in the die cuts pack to embellish the frame. I stuck a thread at the back and the small box frame was ready as a home decor wall hanging!


Hope you liked my projects. Thank you for stopping by. Till next time - Happy crafting!!
