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.

Flip Calendar

Hello, everyone!!!

A very Happy New year to all of you!

Here is my first post of the year 2017. 

And what could be better than a new calendar right now!

 We all are into new resolutions, planning our holidays, trips and many other important activities.

So here it is!!

• Two pieces of cardstock cut as per the desired size. And one more piece to create the base. It is then covered with patterned paper. 
• I have used ready printables of the Calendar months and distressed them. 
• A little work in my MS doc and I made the "Birthdays and Reminders" sheets. This was an optional thing to be added, but considering my memory I thought of putting it right there in front of me..... hehe hehe.... 
• Hole punched these two along with the cardstock base and attached them with a ring. (I was checking out whether it will look better tied with ribbon or the rings...and in the process skipped removing one satin tied there... ;-)) 
• I added a small piece of cardstock ring to the side to hold a pen. (Visible in the front view)
• Next came a satin and a lace tied around the panel. 
• I have added few flowers and leaves to create some dimensions.
• Lastly came a small inspiring note sentiment which I heat embossed to match the colour of the background patterned paper. 

Planning to make a tutorial of this project. Hopefully, I do get the inspiration of penning it all down, step by step and with pictures. 

Materials used are 

• Cardstocks, 
• Patterned paper from Recollections, 
• Calendar printables
• Embellishments - Flowers, leaves, a lace, ribbons, 
• Rings, satin.
• Distress ink
• Stamps / Embossing powder

Some close up pictures!!

I am really in love with this Calendar and had lots of fun making it.

Thank you for dropping in at my blog. Please do leave your comments below. I love reading them all.
