I Love Mom

Hi!

I have been creating some Mother's day cards for these last few days. 

I would be sharing them over the week. 

Here's my card for today.

I began by creating few roses and leaves using the Create-a-rose layered stencil by Craftyscrappers. Fussy cut the flowers and leaves. On a white card panel, I made a floral arrangement using the fussy cut images. Created levels by using foam under one flower. Added few floral fillers using some stamps and green ink. Die-cut the "Love" sentiment using Pink and Main die. Created some dimension by sticking few layers together. Adhered the die-cut on the card. Stamped the remaining sentiment using the brushed alphabet stamp set by Mudra. On a white card base, adhered this panel by adding strips of black and silver underneath. Lastly, added few dew drops to complte my card. 

 That's all for today! 

Looking for your genuine feedback on my card.

Keep checking back for few more Mother's day inspirations!

Watercolour background card

Good Evening everyone!!

First attempt at a new technique. 

A watercolour background card!!

• I took a watercolour paper and distressed it with blue and green distress inks.
• After covering and shading it as required, I misted it with water.
• I mounted the watercolour paper on a black cardstock. (Not visible on the black background)

• I added washi tape on the cardstock before mounting the watercolour paper.
• I heat embossed the sentiment from Mudra "Sentiment essentials" on vellum using white embossing powder.
• Used Paper smooches white "Foliage" die-cut.
• Stuck Glitter few dots.
• There! The card is ready!

I am really happy with the outcome. 

Thank you for hopping over.

Beautiful day

Hello, Everyone!

Today on the blog, I am here with a set of cards. 

Simple and fun cards.

For card 1 -

• I took a ready patterned card stock.
• Used two colours of paper tapes with polka print, at the background,  to match the patterned paper.
• I stamped a floral image on a paper and coloured them. Stamp used is Mudra "Floral Note". Cut it later and mounted it on a paper.
• Heat embossed the sentiment, again from Mudra stamp "Polka dots butterfly" set.  

• Finally assembled it all on to the base cardstock.

For Card 2 - 

• I stamped and heat embossed the Mudra "Damask" stamp on a white paper.
• Mounted it on a cardstock. 

• I used Mudra stamp "Polka dots butterfly" set. Heat embossed the butterflies in various colours. 
• Heat embossed the sentiment, again from Mudra stamp "Polka dots butterfly" set.  

• Arranged the butterflies and the sentiment on the cardstock.

 Hope you all like it!!
Thank you.

Just a little note for you!!

Good Afternnon folks!

Christmas day is already gone. Last month was mostly filled with making Christmas projects, what with the paper bags, cards, keychains, tags etc..... 

Now today I am herewith a card for a challenge i am participating in. 

I began by Stamping the background white paper randomly with my Mudra " Floral note" using the Versamark Watermark. Heat embossing the same with white embossing powder. 

I later used Distress inks to create the shaded background I wanted. 

I attached this white cardstock on a brown cardstock. 

Cut a 3" doily piece and attached it on the stamped paper. 

I then stamped Mudra "Floral note" sentiment on a brown paper, similar to the main cardstock. Stuck this on the card, overlapping the doily with a foam tape. 

            Added up a few flowers to the note and tied a twine around the cardstock.

And here my card is ready for the challenge. 

Kindly leave your feedback on the same.

Scrapbook layout

Hello everyone!

Today I am herewith a Scrapbook layout, made specially for a friend who delivered a cute little bundle of joy yesterday! 

It's a Baby boy! Yayyy!!!

To begin with I attached a green colored patterned paper on a brown cardstock. 

Then on a white cardstock i stamped Mudra "Old Script" multiple times in greenish blue colour. I put this paper on the patterened paper. 

Later came a photo background. I have kept it white, with a blue checkered paper border. Tied a blue bow on one side. I mounted this frame on to the stamped cardstock. I didnt want it to be symmetrical so i mounted the frame a little offset. 

Next came the embellishments...... few flowers, stickers, a little duckling, baby clothes,   
a butterfly, some alphabet buttons etc...

 Lastly came the sentiment " Congratulations" to the proud parents!
Again a Mudra "Sentiment Essential" stamp.

To avoid the monotonous blue look, I have added few different colours such as yellow, orange n green. 

That makes my layout complete. Hope you all enjoyed it!

Kindly leave your comments below. I would love to read them through.
