I simply get lost in the craft world, so much so that I forget to eat or drink or sleep. I love paper and everything inky. I make scrapbooks and cards. I hope you like what you see on my blog. Happy crafting!Sweety Guptahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10041489912069665975noreply@blogger.comBlogger151125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008162991990843966.post-84373075759923045152022-11-17T23:08:00.000+05:302022-11-17T23:08:01.020+05:30Thank you Card for MyselfHello my crafty friends,
Long time, no see! I know the title of this blog post seems so narcissistic. Please allow me to explain how it came to be! I was recently laid off. And honestly, with all that's going on in the world, I would not say I was surprised. It made me sad and I reflected on where I was and how far I have come. This made me grateful- to everyone who was supportive as well as not so supportive. And it made me grateful to myself- I picked up myself and walked a path no ancestor of mine had taken so far. I moved countries and now I have a loving husband, food to eat, clothes for this harsh winter. I am honestly humbled. I needed to thank myself for being brave, for having the strength to fight all the chaos and anxiety, and for just picking myself up every time I felt drowned in sadness.
So, here is something I dedicate to myself:
I first started with just finding an inspiration. Here is the link to November card challenge at Altenew. I used the color pattern to create a background piece with layering and stamping but ended up. not liking it.
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSh9CKp6U1-A-swwcTTHcbkzjHZasSv31iJj63Gzeh7or8rrB1JFaeKMFxF3rrfu2CSZgklzf0PH-5cTANMxXXQz19IXNE6bBzZfn4aMi_54zXKYNQi8Xb6v2VSbnFcIkGpvvlzrwSfq4-5oUc8XD6DVvJqSW2boyQLid90Mq-xh8NlkOwqwmB3W0PKg/s4032/20221116_125657.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0; text-align: center; "><img alt="" border="0" width="600" data-original-height="2268" data-original-width="4032" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSh9CKp6U1-A-swwcTTHcbkzjHZasSv31iJj63Gzeh7or8rrB1JFaeKMFxF3rrfu2CSZgklzf0PH-5cTANMxXXQz19IXNE6bBzZfn4aMi_54zXKYNQi8Xb6v2VSbnFcIkGpvvlzrwSfq4-5oUc8XD6DVvJqSW2boyQLid90Mq-xh8NlkOwqwmB3W0PKg/s600/20221116_125657.jpg"/></a></div>
Then I decided to create a CAS card with a coffee mug as the focal image. And drew a basic mug like so:
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlvTO-qITNgZ1lqIN8U6k1Mc_dxn3MYiUb91DyG6QKZC75Za72Vzxzddp0feUpVaVLMLXO8PteXCL-N6OxDROVOF8rQmJzpc_Le9i2hc6b038g4NtIf4H0MPRWOy_eoIv1pP4LEP5RXOn-QChN2qNXyEAaYNynnLo_KIB5skXF6sLnIPq_onpNByrlgw/s4032/20221116_131914.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0; text-align: center; "><img alt="" border="0" width="600" data-original-height="2268" data-original-width="4032" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlvTO-qITNgZ1lqIN8U6k1Mc_dxn3MYiUb91DyG6QKZC75Za72Vzxzddp0feUpVaVLMLXO8PteXCL-N6OxDROVOF8rQmJzpc_Le9i2hc6b038g4NtIf4H0MPRWOy_eoIv1pP4LEP5RXOn-QChN2qNXyEAaYNynnLo_KIB5skXF6sLnIPq_onpNByrlgw/s320/20221116_131914.jpg"/></a>
I used Crayola crayons to color them in. I used some leftover papers that I got second hand from a kind man. The paper has some texture but it got lost as I used water to move the colors. I used the same crayons in different shades on Altenew 3D floral die set leaves. I am in love with my wandering jew plant and I thought it was nice to have blue-pink leaves.
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8Iqk0IonAIbobI5R3BR2mTCivUPHGp4tDN-OirkBxoHm99bLxkPkYic5JHVh0QlSkAqYm0vWQxjJGoqnhXpx9PZd1Aw5fFBafLnr86fRlWDj05uCDNgCqGNDZx9WGUalTWwNcj4Jnu_DcbA802TzXppJ0O1SozspcJQUHUqrr8XF9dqJBxVQFpX6bDQ/s4032/20221116_133644.jpg" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0; text-align: center; "><img alt="" border="0" width="600" data-original-height="2268" data-original-width="4032" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8Iqk0IonAIbobI5R3BR2mTCivUPHGp4tDN-OirkBxoHm99bLxkPkYic5JHVh0QlSkAqYm0vWQxjJGoqnhXpx9PZd1Aw5fFBafLnr86fRlWDj05uCDNgCqGNDZx9WGUalTWwNcj4Jnu_DcbA802TzXppJ0O1SozspcJQUHUqrr8XF9dqJBxVQFpX6bDQ/s600/20221116_133644.jpg"/></a></div>
And this is the final result. I incorporated the previously made background for added effect here. In the past, I have been miserly about using such leftovers in a way that does not enhance them and puts the focus away from all the effort that went into creating it. But as I grow older, I realize that sometimes no matter how much effort you put into something, it's better in the background than in the forefront. I find that inspiring and practical, and not negative. Hope you also feel the same. :)

Hope you had a good time reading my thoughts as I walk this creative path again. And you too will take the time to thank yourself for not giving up and for being strong.
Would love to hear from you if you enjoyed this!
Have a great week ahead.
Best,

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
Who doesn't love floral cards? They are always hot! When I got one of the designs from the recent fab release of floral stamps, I couldn't wait to create. Here's what I came up with:<br />
<br />
Card 1: Circle card<br />
<br />
This is a shaped card. I used DCWV pearl finish lavender coloured paper for the card base. I then stamped my floral image using versa mark and heat embossed with white embossing powder.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgASibDbVwHWx3U5ypGUZKl8ULfVVcW0u_QVxvG91p5aZ5Y8Xl-aOVWkBTYLvb69s6RaYB9wx2McxEfYgT6a_s7XR5sDg2PuQNJGUvp0UIIwefehCa2U9dUutgvD8fnFx9mfYwcoo_-w0wl/s1600/20190310_112143.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgASibDbVwHWx3U5ypGUZKl8ULfVVcW0u_QVxvG91p5aZ5Y8Xl-aOVWkBTYLvb69s6RaYB9wx2McxEfYgT6a_s7XR5sDg2PuQNJGUvp0UIIwefehCa2U9dUutgvD8fnFx9mfYwcoo_-w0wl/s640/20190310_112143.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I then coloured the flowers neatly using Camel water colour brush pens. Can you tell the flowers are just monochromatic?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP3odZ9lNyaDKgL6MO59wjxSjNcz_fcr5U4r4xXz5Wgh0fcuj8uecCFl2TlMUGrBPIcZoyLmV7weQ3sFslxiPdy4KDGa5NIadgS4n7Lvg3U4CWaPQBRCmoINiYgfiVUK0P8BkZbA7HZz8o/s1600/20190310_112154.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjP3odZ9lNyaDKgL6MO59wjxSjNcz_fcr5U4r4xXz5Wgh0fcuj8uecCFl2TlMUGrBPIcZoyLmV7weQ3sFslxiPdy4KDGa5NIadgS4n7Lvg3U4CWaPQBRCmoINiYgfiVUK0P8BkZbA7HZz8o/s640/20190310_112154.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The best part is that the flowers have some lines, so it's quite easy to make out where the dark and light colouring should be.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4pwKStSZ5LmioIM0H9UovwUdeUptExxV-Ft3q5Qz988I_4NxjoBZHfoOYNLvNxedk0T6CpgP_-QopGA-sHM-0ZwGat7EdNhfq1FWijkkJscMARBjTFpEI3NDsG11OU8wciXLOf6gYnxhD/s1600/20190310_112214.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4pwKStSZ5LmioIM0H9UovwUdeUptExxV-Ft3q5Qz988I_4NxjoBZHfoOYNLvNxedk0T6CpgP_-QopGA-sHM-0ZwGat7EdNhfq1FWijkkJscMARBjTFpEI3NDsG11OU8wciXLOf6gYnxhD/s640/20190310_112214.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I then heat embossed the sentiment using the same stamp set on Craftyscrappers vellum and mounted it on my card.<br />
<br />
Card 2: Striped base<br />
<br />
I am in love with stripes these days. In my Holi set of cards, you saw one such usage. Here's another.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFxwZjd_3CtlhHAD0DMMVxDL-f7xouBFLmb2m2irUWVcUg90ehEeSRM0CLirm59un2M0qER7B8o-__1-4P5opQCizCol4_mP27rWV8xz-wOGn-7JHlnAKi5RBJI8eWNYmHW9o1clsvIf2B/s1600/20190310_112240.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFxwZjd_3CtlhHAD0DMMVxDL-f7xouBFLmb2m2irUWVcUg90ehEeSRM0CLirm59un2M0qER7B8o-__1-4P5opQCizCol4_mP27rWV8xz-wOGn-7JHlnAKi5RBJI8eWNYmHW9o1clsvIf2B/s640/20190310_112240.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I love the contrast the black stripes create. Notice how the flowers have 3 colours. I used pink, orange and yellow to colour the silver embossed florals.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5A4JUKaARM0v3rlZdXPfy0fgysoLpTOL1bOKC52STp_kPe7ugUIPMY_D10F119wwg07pShvymMQv0D00hUDQaDiYn5pxNwFNivpyLwg94kupBm5B95f6WFbLy8LqVqH36SuXkqEZemEaA/s1600/20190310_112314.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5A4JUKaARM0v3rlZdXPfy0fgysoLpTOL1bOKC52STp_kPe7ugUIPMY_D10F119wwg07pShvymMQv0D00hUDQaDiYn5pxNwFNivpyLwg94kupBm5B95f6WFbLy8LqVqH36SuXkqEZemEaA/s640/20190310_112314.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I hope you like how these turned out. Give the flowers a try and you will fall in love with them.<br />
<br />

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Why do we have birthdays? We should have birthday month! Just like CraftyScrappers has for April! We at CraftyScrappers bring you amazing news; we have a product that all crafters have been waiting for so long. Oh it's not a product but a set of products really. It's a CARD KIT! You get tonnes of products specially curated for the kit and craft supplies which are not available otherwise.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I made a video showing you all the gorgeous things you get in the kit <a href="https://youtu.be/lZyaNSNugdQ" target="_blank">here</a>. Being a crafter, I love creating and being creative. Creativity is like meditation to me. There's so much joy in any handmade item. CraftyScrappers has given me that joy by bringing products like vibrant inkpads and unique pearl stickers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For this first card, I used the paper pack I got in the set. I used the extremely pretty peacock inkpad to give bluish edges to the pattern paper. Underneath, I used sunflower inkpad. I think the two colours complement each other perfectly. While crafting, I believe colour combinations yield their own results. Just get that right.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihkdYhEo5R5vSq0i23KpDV5_ohbnZc7UAJpv2_njLdE7NeOLajWj0NHGvgUoIxeXGjEZLBPP8Zuhci4Gx_ziQt7R_nTUwlufOKRkV0ResHIyWs0k2fFjLAv-hRKtdciJwPm2f2Jmkth2k_/s1600/20190414_225622.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihkdYhEo5R5vSq0i23KpDV5_ohbnZc7UAJpv2_njLdE7NeOLajWj0NHGvgUoIxeXGjEZLBPP8Zuhci4Gx_ziQt7R_nTUwlufOKRkV0ResHIyWs0k2fFjLAv-hRKtdciJwPm2f2Jmkth2k_/s640/20190414_225622.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my second card, I wanted something more fun. So, I used Sonoma shimmer paste to create some beach sand. It added so much dimension and volume, I must say. I think creativity is also about finding yourself. You might enjoy making something vintage like the card above or something more bright and fun, like the one below. You're creative in either case. And that's what matters.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAO9Of83PG6kkJ5abS7kukN7P98C-AJxQz767r3kKJPVCJlXJUDlNqV-U-Qlg7r_Ya21ESDU6kGG0gohRHLAvhFnF5FCc03nWbKWoShg3MprbxUm6x9_tyfoWQm3HyGTh914ci2e-zfWR5/s1600/20190414_225731.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAO9Of83PG6kkJ5abS7kukN7P98C-AJxQz767r3kKJPVCJlXJUDlNqV-U-Qlg7r_Ya21ESDU6kGG0gohRHLAvhFnF5FCc03nWbKWoShg3MprbxUm6x9_tyfoWQm3HyGTh914ci2e-zfWR5/s640/20190414_225731.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The pearls you get in the card kit have been handpicked by Konica and just look at these pearls I used. They are iridescent and look like they have been picked right from the sea. I thin Konica has a keen sense of colour combination and to be a part of CraftyScrappers family has been an honour for me. I can only imagine how busy she is and yet, she is able to find time to make cards for all of us DTs. How sweet is that!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
And look at those stars. They looked like starfish to me. Do you agree? Finally, I added the cute hippo I stamped using sunflower ink pad, and I coloured it using the same.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">I can't get over how beautiful the floral stamps launched by CraftyScrappers are. And so versatile, I must say. So, for my wishes to CraftyScrappers on their 6th Birthday, I created this floral birthday card.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I used the beautiful "Be kind be you" stamp set to create the floral cluster and used alcohol markers to colour the image.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I then stamped the background with orange versacolor to create an interesting background, finally colouring it with yellow distress oxide.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I poked holes in the flowers to insert the pollens and create more magical and interesting flowers.</span><br />

Hello guys,<br />
<br />
I hope you are having fun with your stamps and creating something new everyday. Today, I have a few fun ideas for you to try.<br />
<br />
Card 1: Interactive holi card<br />
<br />
This card features a beautiful 3D pop up of 3 plates of Holi colours.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Thus, making it look more interesting. I coloured everything using Camlin watercolour palette.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwUF7fYs6Ytn6lLc6EY8L1tl3uoGKIdPcXDuKPJR_RsOdYLnqup4lzIbElg9X2_5VtBOfjWlvHhMHLGiZtpftv84WdlmDvBIitr-8CesuIMV0qu6jFYSCtT9qGMIE5Q6x0h8TteJ5rISgr/s1600/20190306_192012.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwUF7fYs6Ytn6lLc6EY8L1tl3uoGKIdPcXDuKPJR_RsOdYLnqup4lzIbElg9X2_5VtBOfjWlvHhMHLGiZtpftv84WdlmDvBIitr-8CesuIMV0qu6jFYSCtT9qGMIE5Q6x0h8TteJ5rISgr/s640/20190306_192012.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The inside features the Holi colours but with a twist. I used shimmer paste to make them look more realistic and pretty. I have to say I love the pink coz it's just so shimmery. It kind of reminds me of the mica that's there in Holi colours.<br />
<br />
Card 2: Hand print card<br />
<br />
This card can be easily mass produced and is so much fun to create. I used Craftyscrappers shimmer colours to print my hand on the card. These are colours with metallic shine on them, so they come out really beautifully on the card. To see how I created this card, click here.<br />
<br />
Card 3: All occasion card<br />
<br />
This is such a versatile stamp set. I created this card using the brushstroke image from the stamp. I think I used all of the colours I had in my possession to create the rainbow.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I added shaker elements to complete the look of my card. One box of these shaker elements goes a long way.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I hope you like how these cards turned out.<br />
<br />

Hello friends,<br />
<br />
Here's my inspiration post for Craftyscrappers. The stamp set "You and me" has a super cute couple and I have coloured the image with alcohol markers.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQWv1EQHdXyL436gZ4H8iqaNhGdAKYsNNLFBNwrfvsgrFknKMVvnOOvWpkE2kRT_B5NQbQdRTWZ9MZXhCYdftughXmdeBUFsVQbm1W6jbfWwIZ6nM30YGqOFGkx4eiL187gjUh4zshY4PG/s1600/IMG_8005.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQWv1EQHdXyL436gZ4H8iqaNhGdAKYsNNLFBNwrfvsgrFknKMVvnOOvWpkE2kRT_B5NQbQdRTWZ9MZXhCYdftughXmdeBUFsVQbm1W6jbfWwIZ6nM30YGqOFGkx4eiL187gjUh4zshY4PG/s640/IMG_8005.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next I created a shaker window. I used "Hello" stamp set to create ghost images and make my bright background more beautiful and detailed.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLRhlLLLajA2sHELIqS8t0y10pHGnwGZO46763njWPcaDUMXKWtL3oBXa-FJhu54l8Yx4LcmZ_MSGLAQdafCa122wg87cw7LQoPMEh_hNLaJtgdVSfL71hLXNZdIj2TuTu0zOcOVVSuwFo/s1600/IMG_8007.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLRhlLLLajA2sHELIqS8t0y10pHGnwGZO46763njWPcaDUMXKWtL3oBXa-FJhu54l8Yx4LcmZ_MSGLAQdafCa122wg87cw7LQoPMEh_hNLaJtgdVSfL71hLXNZdIj2TuTu0zOcOVVSuwFo/s640/IMG_8007.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I used shaker elements to fill in and create my shaker card.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIGbVDVke0RyNByZoKSsMCrFk9ddSNsT2Fo75VIPlUw2g46zo8ABdAHxJrd6nD-BxWKbweMys6N7mKlVEN7LhD-jRabfot1fFTvCb49tZKu6lDcQyEgAqV2D0wSGWbhAxGNkrx3ohyibSU/s1600/IMG_8008.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIGbVDVke0RyNByZoKSsMCrFk9ddSNsT2Fo75VIPlUw2g46zo8ABdAHxJrd6nD-BxWKbweMys6N7mKlVEN7LhD-jRabfot1fFTvCb49tZKu6lDcQyEgAqV2D0wSGWbhAxGNkrx3ohyibSU/s640/IMG_8008.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I hope you like how this card turned out. Now, let's take a look at another card that I created with a floral stamp set.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLgM4d-ZnySC0ms063T2e1fRyZ_hZZ-QkfAZ_sOujqi44wFgQyZgqXB1m0ZhY_kc8menc3MWvxh73uZbKEX7vO5tyEH6F06xzsLimw6VdMNBl9ojJZQWGCd7RZO1-Ux3CdpgmL6wXtU8bW/s1600/IMG_8009.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLgM4d-ZnySC0ms063T2e1fRyZ_hZZ-QkfAZ_sOujqi44wFgQyZgqXB1m0ZhY_kc8menc3MWvxh73uZbKEX7vO5tyEH6F06xzsLimw6VdMNBl9ojJZQWGCd7RZO1-Ux3CdpgmL6wXtU8bW/s640/IMG_8009.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
For this card, I used the spotlight stamping technique. Using the heart die cut from the previous card, I stamped the floral image in coordination with the background I have on the main card panel.<br />

Then I coloured the individual flowers with Camel watercolour brush pens and fussy cut them.<br />

I love the splatters that add so much interest on the card.<br />
<br />
I hope you like how this turned out.<br />
<br />
Have an amazing day.<br />

Hello friends,<br />
<br />
Welcome to my blog. Today, let's have a look at two super easy yet elegant window cards I created using "You and me" stamp set by Craftyscrappers. This stamp set is not just relevant for Valentine's Day but for any occasion of love. The sentiments can be easily clubbed together to create a more personalised note.<br />
<br />
Here's my first card:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRHtNazzRmneo0R1FmqtkmCFWjmM-FTLJVvfmb3irSVURaQ9fHoJhfCchOkAff1x0pbNbuMW7g23mVEKCeWDcak39RLqdxpKfs6PEh1XVXrQFUU39_MmsCBMckqoduCA65XnBzRUUAAMfv/s1600/20190214_235126.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRHtNazzRmneo0R1FmqtkmCFWjmM-FTLJVvfmb3irSVURaQ9fHoJhfCchOkAff1x0pbNbuMW7g23mVEKCeWDcak39RLqdxpKfs6PEh1XVXrQFUU39_MmsCBMckqoduCA65XnBzRUUAAMfv/s640/20190214_235126.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
It's a tri-fold card with a lot of details on each panel. So the front is the window through which you an see the cute image. I stamped with archival ink and coloured using Camel watercolour brush pens. It was a later thought to add the gold foiled pattern paper to the front panel.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcbKnBGecU4jU3bq55A43HB5B6ioD9LxSHVoACU1nSZ18lDtTsVdn4azWTy9qgtIXqnSK5Hqi6D8Jxq0cuvj5ZYYHqEhb7JRtGtCW-2f03_BXIaHP0XyCe5bSISckKmhyphenhypheneHuYbaieXavcD/s1600/20190214_235207.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcbKnBGecU4jU3bq55A43HB5B6ioD9LxSHVoACU1nSZ18lDtTsVdn4azWTy9qgtIXqnSK5Hqi6D8Jxq0cuvj5ZYYHqEhb7JRtGtCW-2f03_BXIaHP0XyCe5bSISckKmhyphenhypheneHuYbaieXavcD/s640/20190214_235207.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
To make everything more coordinated, I decided to outline the circle with a POSCA gold acrylic marker. It is a very handy tool to have in your craft room as you can colour coordinate everything. I used a white pen to add details such as dots and lines to the images.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIFq994XDASflcm8bTZna2Ogc5k_vyXzYMEEJU7XH2SYLIO5e9Wiq6_tvS1rvAMPeaNQWtIqgR4n2D8iiSo4YKtV5vH-zZ0Nw8ULHgKg4wHsWwOXmkCvl_uBrqBBmNjGueZ0q6TO8ntNbW/s1600/20190214_235220.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIFq994XDASflcm8bTZna2Ogc5k_vyXzYMEEJU7XH2SYLIO5e9Wiq6_tvS1rvAMPeaNQWtIqgR4n2D8iiSo4YKtV5vH-zZ0Nw8ULHgKg4wHsWwOXmkCvl_uBrqBBmNjGueZ0q6TO8ntNbW/s640/20190214_235220.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
Here's how I completed the second panel. As you can see, the green ribbon on the left adds so much interest and make it whole, sort of.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXgaR6f_nY0VmhjcGVIyK7SbUGiN1aJKrNX2EETXMQ50R8KUOpO9L9y13D5BKziiJ4l68qbjnLVVxSasOBThkcEgWOYRjfOrBTyxBdHL5wqrKtVszIU39arXr-v5Wevq0Wn5QSzRhlJH5R/s1600/20190214_235250.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXgaR6f_nY0VmhjcGVIyK7SbUGiN1aJKrNX2EETXMQ50R8KUOpO9L9y13D5BKziiJ4l68qbjnLVVxSasOBThkcEgWOYRjfOrBTyxBdHL5wqrKtVszIU39arXr-v5Wevq0Wn5QSzRhlJH5R/s640/20190214_235250.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The beautiful leafy image is from Hello stamp set. This is a must have stamp set as the images are solid and do not need additional colouring.<br />
<br />
Let's move on to my second card:<br />
This was pretty easy to make. I simply created an ombre effect with pink and orange colours. To see how to blend distress oxide with any other ink, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riHV1TvWMDA&t=135s" target="_blank">click here</a>.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvjkiCrMCH4HAyXe5s6vZp9TXLkfuGjl7Wm5ZfGEl1YuLPRSjuU9RFwO8DKdpMyZ_YZS_MZmJRL1-lBtamJ0ztZpqk4mjArhB6xvP77sEOD9rb3KgtyNYA0HoT7BPi1loWE3maVdOPYNkx/s1600/20190214_235330.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvjkiCrMCH4HAyXe5s6vZp9TXLkfuGjl7Wm5ZfGEl1YuLPRSjuU9RFwO8DKdpMyZ_YZS_MZmJRL1-lBtamJ0ztZpqk4mjArhB6xvP77sEOD9rb3KgtyNYA0HoT7BPi1loWE3maVdOPYNkx/s640/20190214_235330.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I then stamped the image on this circle and placed it inside the window that I created with the same die on the front panel. You can definitely use a smaller or a larger die, depending on the look you're going for. Use a smaller die as window, and you will get a larger image on the inside. Use a larger die and you get a beautiful border all around.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSjgw-AY-YQ3szXub2CGULwAXaGxdhaok0ObY8ZBRByJwtwOupjXyVN36w7wmHoz-Zvp_dytKOBSp2PPMdDs_j3tq4IzStCi2GSbOQdo3KPJbKPhuec5Ea47OvPjZhDt-jiRs1B6ViMdLp/s1600/20190214_235349.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSjgw-AY-YQ3szXub2CGULwAXaGxdhaok0ObY8ZBRByJwtwOupjXyVN36w7wmHoz-Zvp_dytKOBSp2PPMdDs_j3tq4IzStCi2GSbOQdo3KPJbKPhuec5Ea47OvPjZhDt-jiRs1B6ViMdLp/s640/20190214_235349.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Finally, I added some gold acrylic to the couple just to make them stand out just a bit more from the heavy colours of the background. You can definitely try to lift the distress oxide ink or maybe colour with an even darker ink.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdW7dUDGWJig3aWau9OmM03ASboC1eLNEsRClMRoLVO8kbVLkFzRij0hehO-eWNK40tUGEbR5coSs65lpxM_fx4cuKirwqnotvAlU1C84daGGoB8mh_OCeQaUcD52z3VvVP8uujfK6qqcz/s1600/20190214_235407.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdW7dUDGWJig3aWau9OmM03ASboC1eLNEsRClMRoLVO8kbVLkFzRij0hehO-eWNK40tUGEbR5coSs65lpxM_fx4cuKirwqnotvAlU1C84daGGoB8mh_OCeQaUcD52z3VvVP8uujfK6qqcz/s640/20190214_235407.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Lastly, I added some embellishments and finished off the card with really pretty shaker mix.<br />
<br />
I hope you got some ideas for creating your own cards.<br />

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
In my Dec DT kit, I received the festive Christmas colours of shimmer paste. These colours are so amazing and sparkly. I decided to use blue and green for creating a sort of ombre effect through my favourite stencil Starburst. This is one of my favourite colour combination and gives such a cool effect.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrFtZlwMPkqifE8uZfEvnvVCEkNdsltTEuqrODmkVstyhUvry2DfQc8Hv5t0PTAKae6wBxnjEZRE2u28aeFxJsFrE0yYgJUZCEJ6_Vx2ZCg4q4162KYnOhINA2XyBWG3MVywu3xiRfmxHD/s1600/IMG_8188.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrFtZlwMPkqifE8uZfEvnvVCEkNdsltTEuqrODmkVstyhUvry2DfQc8Hv5t0PTAKae6wBxnjEZRE2u28aeFxJsFrE0yYgJUZCEJ6_Vx2ZCg4q4162KYnOhINA2XyBWG3MVywu3xiRfmxHD/s640/IMG_8188.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The shimmer paste is so easy to spread and the glitter is well distributed, so you only need to put one layer of it to get all the sparkle.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ7ahCLytMrpO_wVzteqxebUrGsel_O8qJOZKxhw-JBhkF9Fqvhz3S3Q8_P6lspOh6afACLxRrWyV4abjbpPgrG9c0oC6DORuWhtHYw1rm3V0PGWDSQhc5Hy7HdzoFiFVEhEBe-dM_gfao/s1600/IMG_8189.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ7ahCLytMrpO_wVzteqxebUrGsel_O8qJOZKxhw-JBhkF9Fqvhz3S3Q8_P6lspOh6afACLxRrWyV4abjbpPgrG9c0oC6DORuWhtHYw1rm3V0PGWDSQhc5Hy7HdzoFiFVEhEBe-dM_gfao/s640/IMG_8189.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I do recommend that you move the shimmer paste with your palette knife just a little, to ensure that everything in the jar is all mixed properly.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNXLNs6SZyi8zb_hZ58rj5jvJ5Wu4Hiday05c0IiQElynFCUN9Z34vUezGFr3Cf6rit1rnR-M28M5GMCBUD24T68ZCv_21v2_K3YglRBPPrN8U902VdsnYTfYQkAkiecbncldU87K6lmcY/s1600/IMG_8190.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNXLNs6SZyi8zb_hZ58rj5jvJ5Wu4Hiday05c0IiQElynFCUN9Z34vUezGFr3Cf6rit1rnR-M28M5GMCBUD24T68ZCv_21v2_K3YglRBPPrN8U902VdsnYTfYQkAkiecbncldU87K6lmcY/s640/IMG_8190.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I used a silver foil cardstock for the base and once the paste was all dry, I die cut it with an oval die. And created two cards with the two pieces.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmfNRdMxbt5N-WEiWiUXK7zm4un42kf1lNJ6qvN82UHhb87-oFGyXKCuIIzzD7-_M5duJjoCLUM8eTVSW-Sw-W8Gd_fX4ktb5tsTEgPBGZzMA2stb7CGvUY92TgRGJwLZcCc_z_Yf23Va-/s1600/IMG_8191.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmfNRdMxbt5N-WEiWiUXK7zm4un42kf1lNJ6qvN82UHhb87-oFGyXKCuIIzzD7-_M5duJjoCLUM8eTVSW-Sw-W8Gd_fX4ktb5tsTEgPBGZzMA2stb7CGvUY92TgRGJwLZcCc_z_Yf23Va-/s640/IMG_8191.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
I hope you are doing great. Art journalling is such a fun and relaxing activity. It takes your stress away and it inspires you when the time comes. So, here I have two art journal pages for you:<br />
<br />
For my first page, I created this really cute fish. This I created on a day I felt lost and to go with the fish, I have the quote "When nothing is going right, GO FISHIN'" Isn't that cute? The background uses 3 shades of <a href="http://craftyscrappers.in/index.php?route=product/category&path=126_135_137" target="_blank">shimmer paints</a> (Beautiful sunset, butter chocolate and sweet candy). I used black soft pastel to give a sort of framing to the page.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihAswWTg713U88xmKz-GqT26EDEI46L3BOTpkEfbMS-TCrLk5IiuVmSgDgYDYSrmJsLSSf9lJYBY_2-4uxnMfFMrl5AoGFnNDybE6KiJzu0VeQDng_aBcpMocoOtAwiIVmx3d6vzBdNPU-/s1600/IMG_8156.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihAswWTg713U88xmKz-GqT26EDEI46L3BOTpkEfbMS-TCrLk5IiuVmSgDgYDYSrmJsLSSf9lJYBY_2-4uxnMfFMrl5AoGFnNDybE6KiJzu0VeQDng_aBcpMocoOtAwiIVmx3d6vzBdNPU-/s640/IMG_8156.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
I used Mica flakes to get the effect of fish skin. Underneath I had applied a coat of <a href="http://craftyscrappers.in/index.php?route=product/product&path=133&product_id=1194" target="_blank">Fallen sky</a> Chalk paint. It is such a pretty shade of blue. After covering it with Mica, the color was still bright. So, I sprayed some <a href="http://craftyscrappers.in/index.php?route=product/product&path=142&product_id=1284" target="_blank">tasty tortilla </a>shimmer spray to tone it down. Since the chalk paint has the properties of acrylic paint, the yellow of tortilla uniquely shined on the blue of fallen sky.<br />

It turned out to be so amazing and realistic and surreal at the same time.</div>

For the next page, I used just a hint of shimmer paint to add a touch of shimmer to various parts of the coloured image of Durga. This is simply a fantastic image, and you know why? Because the face looks angry if you want to look at it that way, and loving, if you look at it that way. So, basically it becomes a matter of your perspective. Isn't that cool?</div>

I used the same shimmer paint to add splatters for some interest in the background. The images are from the gorgeous Durga Puja stamp set.<br />

Craftyscrappers<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
Interactive cards can make anyone's day! And I was craving to make something quick and easy. So, I have a card with a bookmark on it.<br />
<br />
Here are 4 such cards:<br />
CARD 1: This one is my favourite I guess simply because it's so vibrant. I used Camlin brush pens to colour the flowers from this gorgeous image from "Be kind be you" stamp set.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhMvdjnuor9gX74BfWFbvnaJuKvoXpWWjxz4-aWT1JvTk0n6syX9YA1018VKrpb_EyZN1bfICYUOPz1PClesPhuSq6bkPSaCCbitUWPxXHx5d-ENhksGiri6QzgyVQQu6mUT_6QNbRi1OM/s1600/IMG_8113.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhMvdjnuor9gX74BfWFbvnaJuKvoXpWWjxz4-aWT1JvTk0n6syX9YA1018VKrpb_EyZN1bfICYUOPz1PClesPhuSq6bkPSaCCbitUWPxXHx5d-ENhksGiri6QzgyVQQu6mUT_6QNbRi1OM/s640/IMG_8113.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
CARD 2: This card uses emboss resist technique to colour the same image. I have used shimmer sprays to colour the panel and creamy bookmark.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigGkQhIo-auHvJJ6jIER3S-5dfU_mFyg9sp_4GtQ7dLK7KW-Sq3Z32Mi9GzFCMgaKXtTeepewt5C-taQSwOCbpGnsrif2KO-uMg99-kPFAgQ66cMcWay6VIZNoOshMJrWQc3t3h3UWkcGT/s1600/IMG_8115.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigGkQhIo-auHvJJ6jIER3S-5dfU_mFyg9sp_4GtQ7dLK7KW-Sq3Z32Mi9GzFCMgaKXtTeepewt5C-taQSwOCbpGnsrif2KO-uMg99-kPFAgQ66cMcWay6VIZNoOshMJrWQc3t3h3UWkcGT/s640/IMG_8115.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
CARD 3: For this third card, I got a really bright and vibrant colour with Camlin brush pens. The pinks and purples shine against the silver embossing.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5lWVYUDSE9sJupMk67AH_apM9HX3t808HO19JZToXr86hjey9Pkkmg0IfoJZ4VW39Zf45aJmNbujzWsP6RgBvcXwgn7BZTBXSI0ILZhHWzbmexam1gfTZ3I3IPWeRJStGd2d-C2R4i3eO/s1600/IMG_8117.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5lWVYUDSE9sJupMk67AH_apM9HX3t808HO19JZToXr86hjey9Pkkmg0IfoJZ4VW39Zf45aJmNbujzWsP6RgBvcXwgn7BZTBXSI0ILZhHWzbmexam1gfTZ3I3IPWeRJStGd2d-C2R4i3eO/s640/IMG_8117.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Shades of brown go well with the brown corners I used to hold the bookmark.<br />
<br />

<br />
CARD 4: For the final card, I used more subtle tones with Camlin water colour cakes.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am getting so busy with exams, ugh! I don't find time to craft. But here is what I made using Penny Black stamps and some pre made flowers from my stash:<br />

Hello everyone,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I hope you are enjoying the festivities with Durga Puja and Navratre. With this festive mood, I have 3 simple and easy cards to share with you today.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Card 1: This one is my favourite as it's interactive and fun. I used an oval die to partially cut a paper and then shaped it like a Diya. I have a unicorn horn die that I used as the light of the Diya. But of course, you can simply draw and cut it out. I then put acetate and created 2 separate shaker windows.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZh6tLddIqkungCJByrk4rzR6PJKFHYV0gzhpNgge1Ft81qNab0WLFAhUR1OA-dy_xsYJqyLL4UoChNJRDEe0rjekPWvuHk8etFcXwKX072B3W8XWpNkS4hBXIxq95j8R_hpPjHhBsBqAV/s1600/IMG_8039.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZh6tLddIqkungCJByrk4rzR6PJKFHYV0gzhpNgge1Ft81qNab0WLFAhUR1OA-dy_xsYJqyLL4UoChNJRDEe0rjekPWvuHk8etFcXwKX072B3W8XWpNkS4hBXIxq95j8R_hpPjHhBsBqAV/s640/IMG_8039.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I used Craftyscrappers shaker elements <a href="http://craftyscrappers.in/index.php?route=product/product&path=139&product_id=1397" target="_blank">festive poppies</a> to fill in my Diya. It looks so ethnic with this brown rustic color tone. I matted the panel onto a gold foil paper. The sentiment is from the stamp set.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiR6y1Gk-KLTwkWm8_CbKQQcLtRADd7o3lzrFtIJf5MMho5dXBVW0VtIGd1fO-l3KdAwqkfucluj4z7kHhpYi85wn6QJL6QYnCrgTxUiS9ZID5AVz9qTWoQbqkGewM6P2eW6OeTGymI2Ho/s1600/IMG_8040.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiR6y1Gk-KLTwkWm8_CbKQQcLtRADd7o3lzrFtIJf5MMho5dXBVW0VtIGd1fO-l3KdAwqkfucluj4z7kHhpYi85wn6QJL6QYnCrgTxUiS9ZID5AVz9qTWoQbqkGewM6P2eW6OeTGymI2Ho/s640/IMG_8040.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Card 2: For this one, I used a different colour combo and made a sort of night sky with blue tones of inks. I used silver embossing powder to create those stars, and gold for the sentiment.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTD_Mv7T6PLk3oQZL4-_vH-ka12aNC9pml8014x7WXtFddHO0PYjh0xL7u0z50QDLVR7fliwXYVLqIrdJw7CpU3zEMiCYIweXdSZK2DmCzo-s-U66zV4SFkwbZyzzCnQfB3E831C9EGjS9/s1600/IMG_8041.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTD_Mv7T6PLk3oQZL4-_vH-ka12aNC9pml8014x7WXtFddHO0PYjh0xL7u0z50QDLVR7fliwXYVLqIrdJw7CpU3zEMiCYIweXdSZK2DmCzo-s-U66zV4SFkwbZyzzCnQfB3E831C9EGjS9/s640/IMG_8041.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Both the images on this panel are from <a href="http://craftyscrappers.in/index.php?route=product/product&path=73_80&product_id=1104" target="_blank">Sparkling Diwali</a> stamp set.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Card 3: I used <a href="http://craftyscrappers.in/index.php?route=product/product&path=86_88&product_id=1108" target="_blank">premium white card stock</a> to create my panel here. This is slightly off white and is a great paper to use if you don't like that striking white on your card. I lined up and stamped the images, coloured them with Camel water colours.<br />

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
The month of autumn is known for thanksgiving, and all the beautiful colours of fall- orange, green and yellow. I chose these three colours to make a bright card today:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I chose food colours to get the effect. The brown is just the result of the puddle orange and green make. And no, it wasn't accidental. I love this colour combination and I knew brown would add something extra to my background.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0CJtjRfPgDA6oAvRok0D32ISzsXRv3pAcyfN-iRMYS361bIeA0NAiVeEbtTpDp08PxYIzvakst9z6iXYKfbTeUw8gOPwGFDZYkAsmf3Tgafdf655JO794qPerRm6L4yQ9mRTz0_w1q3BY/s1600/IMG_8009.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0CJtjRfPgDA6oAvRok0D32ISzsXRv3pAcyfN-iRMYS361bIeA0NAiVeEbtTpDp08PxYIzvakst9z6iXYKfbTeUw8gOPwGFDZYkAsmf3Tgafdf655JO794qPerRm6L4yQ9mRTz0_w1q3BY/s640/IMG_8009.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I used starburst stencil by Craftyscrappers to make the pattern with modelling paste. Then I used the food colours. and since everything got covered with colours, I used Posca acrylic marker to go over the raised areas to highlight the pattern.<br />
<br />
I hope you like how this turned out.<br />
<br />
Have a great day!<br />
Sweety.<br />

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
I hope you are enjoying the gorgeous floral stamps Craftyscrappers just released. All of them are simply amazing. The incredible details makes them so easy to colour.<br />
<br />
Here are 2 cards I made using the "Be kind, Be you" stamp set. I coloured all the images with watercolour brush pens.<br />
<br />
Card 1: In this I kept the colouring limited to one colour for flowers and one for the leaves. I used water to get transparency and depth in my colouring.<br />
These Koi water colour pens are my only 2 possessions of this brand and I simply love the modern look these colours give.<br />
<br />

<br />
I mounted the panel on a card base I created with DCWV Christmas greetings paper pack.<br />
The craft colour of the base compliments the craft colour of the sentiment panel.<br />
<br />

<br />
Card 2: For this I changed the colour panel from pink to blue. No water. Just 2 shades of blue for the flowers.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The golden circles are actually die cuts from a panel on which I tried Craftyscrappers shimmer paste. I used the newly launched Dazzle paste in pineapple colour for the background through Starburst stencil.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
It feels like I am not crafting enough these days. Does it happen to you as well? Anyways, I find that when a few days pass by without crafting, my mojo works in mysterious ways. And usually, I end up creating something I really like. Today's card is something like that.<br />
<br />
Here's what I made:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Here I used a floral stamp set and this bunch is simply gorgeous. I water coloured it using Camlin water colour brush pens. These were unbelievably easy to colour. Would you believe me if I said the whole thing was done in 10 minutes!<br />
<br />

<br />
The cute little birdie is from Penny Black stamp set. I used orange and white sequins to give it a finished look.<br />

Hello friends,<br />
<br />
It's Sweety here, creative designer with Craftyscrappers. Craftyscrappers strives to bring you amazing and innovative stamps, and mid July release was no different. When I set my eyes on "Grunge gears" stamp set, I knew I had to have it! It's a background stamp, available in multiple sizes. I received mine in 4X4 inches.<br />
<br />
This is an artwork in itself and so many details on this stamp set make your life so easy. All you need to do is stamp it on a beautiful background and you are done with a card. But how I can I make it so easy? I made 10 cards using this stamp set.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Card 1:</u></b><br />
<br />
I began with the white premium cardstock by Craftyscrappers. This is a smooth paper and provides a great surface for mixing colours. I cut it into 4X4 piece to fit the whole design of my stamp.<br />
<br />

<br />
I then used Versamark over the stamp and laid my paper onto it rather than bringing the stamp to the paper. This way, I can press using a brayer and get a uniform stamping. I gold embossed the image.<br />
<br />

<br />
I then sprayed Shimmer spray in 3 colours. You can see the names in the pic. These dye based inks are very vibrant.<br />
<br />

<br />
But the grunge gears needed grunge background colours. So, I lifted some of the colours off the paper using a baby wipe. I also wiped the wet wipe across to get a smooth coverage of colours.<br />
<br />

Here's how the finished card looks after I wiped the mud colours with a baby wipe to get a smooth look.</div>

<br />
<b><u>Card 2: </u></b><br />
Now card 2 has a more rustic feel to it. Almost always, I have found emboss resist difficult as the colours do not remain vibrant. So, I decided to make the background first and then stamp over it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtI0sVmvoRHsjo7rtGAlH_TtmYMce304Yfb5tLWehZYVsxHUhF9mXzjYd7SViwj9_SNWF2UJ3enS9f0raTz2B8ZIqmu4puZClVdcEwUZ_Uv_eM16i1pMTbHzmpvyQKCwAbM9Fzn-EINnhy/s1600/IMG_7736.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtI0sVmvoRHsjo7rtGAlH_TtmYMce304Yfb5tLWehZYVsxHUhF9mXzjYd7SViwj9_SNWF2UJ3enS9f0raTz2B8ZIqmu4puZClVdcEwUZ_Uv_eM16i1pMTbHzmpvyQKCwAbM9Fzn-EINnhy/s640/IMG_7736.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I used sweet pumpkin and spicy walnut to get a grungy look. These shimmer sprays shine so subtly and give everything a finished look. I sprayed the panel as shown below, with water to get the colours moving. This also toned the colours down a bit, and make it perfectly pastel.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This is how it looks once dry. The paper burnt a little because I was in a hurry to get it dry. But thats ok. I sprayed just a little green and it became perfectly rustic.<br />
<br />

<br />
This is when I decided to stamp using the same paper to stamp technique as in the 1st card.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here's how the finished card looks:<br />

<br />
<b>Card 3:</b><br />
By now, I wanted something more vibrant. So, I sprayed a piece of white cardstock with blue and green shimmer paints. I let it dry naturally. So, the colours stayed vibrant.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I now twisted a gold wire just as that in the stamped bulb. Such wires are easily available for flower making.<br />

It is vibrant and look how well it goes with the background created using the same stamp set with distress oxide inks.<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>Card 4:</b><br />
<br />
For this one, I simply stamped the image on a craft cardstock and coloured the images with white and green Staedler watercolour pencils.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI-ysN4KzxHTw07PknK45ZerlhzaPs4XHeuyhHWkBnngecUGzGPhCJe8CEeX_U-bKDZk-Hsv_bRfi26P-UVkldvLi4zbaPovHSjLrdAclOKF7SzmQ4xQKMOpRH25l0VvnzqjDKcSxLhZCm/s1600/IMG_7832.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI-ysN4KzxHTw07PknK45ZerlhzaPs4XHeuyhHWkBnngecUGzGPhCJe8CEeX_U-bKDZk-Hsv_bRfi26P-UVkldvLi4zbaPovHSjLrdAclOKF7SzmQ4xQKMOpRH25l0VvnzqjDKcSxLhZCm/s640/IMG_7832.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I then added details such as metal brads and eyelets. Notice how the green glitter paper peeks through the eyelets.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<b>Card 5:</b><br />
<br />
Another great way to use the stamp set is using it with gold embossing powder on a black sheet of paper. It brings out all the metallic details so well. I then mounted this upon a gold foil for a contrast.<br />

Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
Rakhi is round the corner, and what's better than a handmade card for your brother or sister. Today, I have 3 different cards to show you. Even though I don't have a photo tutorial but I will guide you through the steps.<br />
<br />
Card 1: VINTAGE<br />
So, this card has a vintage feel to it because of the craft paper and cream flowers.<br />
1. I stamped various sentiments from the "Rakhi wishes" stamp set using brown and red Versacolor inks on a craft sheet to make my own pattern paper.<br />
2. I then inked the edges using Artistry brown ink. This makes everything look older and prettier.<br />
3. I then heat embossed the bold and brush lettered sentiment on a red circle.<br />
4. I inked the edges of flowers from the Craftyscrappers embellishments.<br />
5. I finally added a bow using glue dots. They are really strong adhesive and hold such elements quite well.<br />
<br />
Here's how my card looks.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
As you can see, it's a fancy fold card. I simply folded the base to create this z-shape.<br />
<br />

<br />
Card 2: MODERN<br />
<br />
For this card, I first coloured the brother-sister image from the "Rakhi wishes" stamp using Camlin brush markers. This is such a cute image and so much fun to colour.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgItv5SZJKCAB9jxFtLlKZ4f8XcBIJBArJ4LrXDruQrFqdnbw-aLqRSapAatzlbrkT0BUFn3ygAplB6O9A-Vwg9UIrFuPtokNO_wCmeVOC_hMFx7GG15hBWlsNQJLHDjtaxTx7TtsOZG9s-/s1600/IMG_7789.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgItv5SZJKCAB9jxFtLlKZ4f8XcBIJBArJ4LrXDruQrFqdnbw-aLqRSapAatzlbrkT0BUFn3ygAplB6O9A-Vwg9UIrFuPtokNO_wCmeVOC_hMFx7GG15hBWlsNQJLHDjtaxTx7TtsOZG9s-/s640/IMG_7789.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I then did the fancy fold as I did in my previous card. I glued the image such that whole of it was visible upon closing the card. Then I added a green pattern paper underneath the image to give it some base. Otherwise, my image will look like its floating.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRVn1PKSfSlIcyX8JG5gCqCcbiicgzQ0WdXoOp22_PAMqS89HxWTmpJ-LLiuTj1_k60WlF7VWznDCK1Q6haNpOaHdduR662xp6SVozgXvCxm457-E4qaMcj1av4Q4NWZ_TRYXVd12DuCQp/s1600/IMG_7787.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRVn1PKSfSlIcyX8JG5gCqCcbiicgzQ0WdXoOp22_PAMqS89HxWTmpJ-LLiuTj1_k60WlF7VWznDCK1Q6haNpOaHdduR662xp6SVozgXvCxm457-E4qaMcj1av4Q4NWZ_TRYXVd12DuCQp/s640/IMG_7787.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I finally stamped the sentiment on a cream coloured paper using red versa colour ink, and matted this circle onto a red paper. I cut the red paper with scissors to create the postage look.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Card 3: ULTRA MODERN CAS CARD<br />
<br />
This card uses "grunge gears" stamp set and is fit for all occasions. Just add"loving brother" below the hello and you have a card for your brother.<br />

Hello friends,<br />
<br />
Galaxies fascinate me. They have such an odd balance of chaos and order. Don't you think so? Anyways, I have 3 beautiful galaxy inspired cards for you.<br />
<br />
Card 1: It uses stickers to create the sentiment.<br />
<br />

Craftyscrappers<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Hello friends,<br />
<br />
In my last DT post, I talked about how versatile the "Rainy Day" stencil is. I thought I will combine it with a stamp set I adore. "Sisters for life" is a cute stamp set with amazing images and awesome quotes. I coloured Elsa and her traditional blue attire using Touchnew alcohol markers.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="IMG_7356.JPG" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11089" data-attachment-id="11089" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-description="" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"PC","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"1533036579","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="IMG_7356" data-large-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=1086?w=966" data-medium-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=1086?w=283" data-orig-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=1086" data-orig-size="2335,2475" data-permalink="https://craftyscrappers.wordpress.com/2018/07/31/shimmery-starry-background-card-a-step-by-step-tutorial-dt-sweety-gupta/img_7356/" sizes="(max-width: 1086px) 100vw, 1086px" src="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=1086" srcset="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=1086 1086w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=2172 2172w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=142 142w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=283 283w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=768 768w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7356.jpg?w=966 966w" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<br />
I then used the Rainy Day stencil with Gold shimmer paste to create a starry sky on a black paper. I also used shimmer paste in Lilac, Envy and Salmon colours to create a fun rainbow on a scrap white paper using the same stencil. I also silver embossed the sentiment from the same stamp set.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I then stamped the snowflakes on a metallic blue paper with white ink.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
While trying to add shimmer to Elsa's dress, I spilled the whole bottle of glue glitter on my project. I was heartbroken, and it took me some time to lift everything and clean the mess. But I managed to salvage the project. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="IMG_7360.JPG" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11091" data-attachment-id="11091" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-description="" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"PC","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"1533036579","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="IMG_7360" data-large-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=1086?w=960" data-medium-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=1086?w=281" data-orig-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=1086" data-orig-size="2339,2496" data-permalink="https://craftyscrappers.wordpress.com/2018/07/31/shimmery-starry-background-card-a-step-by-step-tutorial-dt-sweety-gupta/img_7360/" sizes="(max-width: 1086px) 100vw, 1086px" src="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=1086" srcset="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=1086 1086w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=2172 2172w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=141 141w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=281 281w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=768 768w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7360.jpg?w=960 960w" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<br />
I stamped and heat embossed some silver snowflakes from the same stamp set. I fussy cut them and stick them over the stamped image. This hid the snowflakes I had stamped and ruined while picking up my glitter glue.<br />
<br />
Here's how my final project looks:<br />
<br />
The sentiment goes so well with the starry background and magical rainbow.<br />

This card is dimensional and Elsa looks like a rockstar!<br />

Craftyscrappers<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Hello everyone,<br />
<br />
I hope you are having a great day. Today's cards feature a beautiful and versatile stencil by Craftscrappers "<a href="http://craftyscrappers.in/index.php?route=product/product&path=110&product_id=1352" target="_blank">Rainy Day</a>". Though it's called rainy day, this stencil can easily create a winter night sky, a sunny sky and a spring rainbow, along with the rainy scene. So, I decided to merge all 4 in one card. Here's how:<br />
<br />
Step 1: I took a square card stock and drew 2 lines to make 4 sections as shown:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="IMG_7344.JPG" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11002" data-attachment-id="11002" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-description="" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"PC","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"1532950889","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="IMG_7344" data-large-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=1086?w=959" data-medium-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=1086?w=281" data-orig-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=1086" data-orig-size="2335,2493" data-permalink="https://craftyscrappers.wordpress.com/2018/07/30/all-seasons-in-1-card-a-step-by-step-tutorial-dt-sweety-gupta/img_7344/" sizes="(max-width: 1086px) 100vw, 1086px" src="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=1086" srcset="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=1086 1086w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=2172 2172w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=140 140w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=281 281w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=768 768w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7344.jpg?w=959 959w" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<br />
Step 2: I then coloured each box with a different color of Distress oxide- Twisted citron/Cracked pistachio/Broken China/Fossilised amber.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="IMG_7345.JPG" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11003" data-attachment-id="11003" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-description="" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"PC","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"1532950889","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="IMG_7345" data-large-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=1086?w=944" data-medium-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=1086?w=277" data-orig-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=1086" data-orig-size="2335,2532" data-permalink="https://craftyscrappers.wordpress.com/2018/07/30/all-seasons-in-1-card-a-step-by-step-tutorial-dt-sweety-gupta/img_7345/" sizes="(max-width: 1086px) 100vw, 1086px" src="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=1086" srcset="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=1086 1086w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=2172 2172w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=138 138w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=277 277w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=768 768w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7345.jpg?w=944 944w" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<br />
Step 3: I then used the stencil to create rainbow using permanent alcohol markers in the greenish box. These Mungyo markers have a solid tip, so the ink does not seep under the stencil and gives a finished look.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="IMG_7346.JPG" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11004" data-attachment-id="11004" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-description="" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"PC","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"1532950889","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="IMG_7346" data-large-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=1086?w=733" data-medium-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=1086?w=215" data-orig-file="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=1086" data-orig-size="2336,3264" data-permalink="https://craftyscrappers.wordpress.com/2018/07/30/all-seasons-in-1-card-a-step-by-step-tutorial-dt-sweety-gupta/img_7346/" sizes="(max-width: 1086px) 100vw, 1086px" src="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=1086" srcset="https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=1086 1086w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=2172 2172w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=107 107w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=215 215w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=768 768w, https://craftyscrappers.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/img_7346.jpg?w=733 733w" style="text-align: start;" /></div>
<br />
Step 4: Now I used the stencil again to create night sky with <a href="http://craftyscrappers.in/index.php?route=product/product&path=126_130&product_id=1325" target="_blank">gold shimmer paste</a> on the blue box and rainy sky with modelling paste on the pista coloured box.<br />

Step 5: I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment that suited my background. This is from "You n me" stamp set by Craftyscrappers.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The sun and clouds were also created using the stencil. Don't they look like stickers? I matted every panel on a black burlap, and then stick them using foam adhesive.<br />

Hello friends,<br />
<br />
I hope you are having a creative day. This weekend I decided to create a double interactive card: a box card with a shaker window! Doesn't that sound fun? There's also a pool ring sliding along the string at the back of the card. You really have to see the card in action to see all the fun elements work together.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
All the cute hippos are actually from the stamp set "HELLO SUMMER". The cute shaker element is on the front side of the box, and a cute hippo looks at you through the window. Don't you think the golden sparkle dots resemble sand here?<br />

This card was super fun to make but more importantly, it's so engaging that recipient of all ages would simply love it!<br />

Hello friends,<br />
<br />
Sweety here, with a tutorial for a cute slider card. It doesn't need a die or any special equipment. Craftyscrappers has come out with really cute critters stamps in June. My favourite among them is the "HELLO SUMMER" stamp set featuring really cute hippos in summery clothes.<br />
Here's the card I made using the stamp set:<br />
<br />
<br />
Let's take a look at how I created the card:<br />
<br />
1. I started out with stamping images that I needed in black archival ink. This ink is permanent and does not smudge, so I can easily color the images using Touch New alcohol markers. I fussy cut all the images. It's easier to cut after colouring rather than the other way around. Do not forget to cut out the centre of the swimming ring.<br />

<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0l59zNtQW-t5pcYAC7sbbi6YzCfFFVkvXhddWHA2WQBdhARGswS9Kp3NkUmRL8pWbm0-PYSqiHAj2fhND9Nb_YNtBjd6eoEy8qfjXLMjK_kIWCSAuR1TAP4G1W71y9cG9n65SxPIvcNsI/s1600/B6F66115-6598-4A9E-B001-148D9BA77555.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="796" data-original-width="1600" height="316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0l59zNtQW-t5pcYAC7sbbi6YzCfFFVkvXhddWHA2WQBdhARGswS9Kp3NkUmRL8pWbm0-PYSqiHAj2fhND9Nb_YNtBjd6eoEy8qfjXLMjK_kIWCSAuR1TAP4G1W71y9cG9n65SxPIvcNsI/s640/B6F66115-6598-4A9E-B001-148D9BA77555.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

3. Next, I kept the rectangular floater somewhere in the middle on my card panel and drew some random lines to give shape to the pool. Keep some gap between the floater and the lines to make sure you have room for the slider element to work.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br />
4. It's time to colour the panel. I did some basic blending. Did you know Distress oxides blend beautifully with so many other types of colours including pigment inks? I spritz some water to give the blue panel more watery look.<br />
<br />

6. Now onto the technical part. You will need 2 small sized 1 rupee coin (the new ones, I find the old 1 rs coins to be a tad bit bigger.). Start with cutting out 2 parallel lines for the slider to work, and trim it out. There's no need to be precise but just try getting neat edges coz they will be visible. Add foam adhesive to the coin such that it fits nicely into the slit. Remove the backing and add the other coin. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
7. All that's left to do is to add our cut outs to the panel and of course, some final touches. This included adding touches of Sakura 3D gel pen to the moustache dots on the hippo, and a few white highlights. I also added glossy accents to the pool ring.</div>

Hello,<br />
<br />
I have been MIA for some time. Hotch potch at work and exams have kept me busy. So, I made full use of Sunday today. Here's a cute bear hugs card:<br />

I used Sizzix dies to die cut a bear from a craft card stock. The pattern papers are from DCWV Nana's Kitchen paper pack. This is a super cute paper pack with lots of glittery paper.<br />

Hello,<br />
<br />
I haven't had the time to create anything recently. So, when Saturday came, unsurprisingly I was in my craft room for straight 4-5 hours. Here's one of the cards I made:<br />

Hello,<br />
<br />
I am honoured and excited to tell you that I am guest designing for Muse Card Club today. I decided to make a bright and happy card with just a single focal image.<br />
<br />
This is for a friend who has her birthday next week. I would have used a Happy Birthday Sentiment but I didn't have the sentiment in this size! :( But well, "Friends are a gift." :P<br />

<br /></div>
<br />
You can see how I have used foam adhesive to adhere the lotus, and this makes the flower pop. Do you know lotus is my favourite flower? It has a huge significance across cultures, from Buddhism to Hinduism. It grows in muddy waters, and blooms. It inspires you to do greater things in life, bloom in all circumstances.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Oh, for the lower part, I added an off white paper, and added criss cross pattern on it using Scoring board. I also used Nuvo gold drops on each junction. I didn't know it will look so elegant. :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
For the flower, I used Mudra Craft Stamps Lotus bloom. I recently bought two colours of Koi water colour brush pens and used them here. Gold embossing makes the flower look so elegant. This also brings everything together, with gold everywhere.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8RM_Y-55Ca4PmdwjjIum4jyryxQuNfaVhyeVpQlBB6McY4fXq66PTGceeMWnIxKEueGPI5fX78X3hCmZDfMuZ7lcErwOLZ7EXSjDOJJAxLYQXRUDm853Cf86_tusEpIBiWZ1WnjcHEpbZ/s1600/IMG_6990+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8RM_Y-55Ca4PmdwjjIum4jyryxQuNfaVhyeVpQlBB6McY4fXq66PTGceeMWnIxKEueGPI5fX78X3hCmZDfMuZ7lcErwOLZ7EXSjDOJJAxLYQXRUDm853Cf86_tusEpIBiWZ1WnjcHEpbZ/s640/IMG_6990+2.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Finally, I gold embossed the sentiment on a black strip of paper and matted it on a gold glitter paper.<br />
<br />
I hope you like how it turned out. And get inspired and join in the fun at <a href="https://musecardclub.blogspot.in/2018/05/muse-challenge-268.html" target="_blank">Muse Card Club</a>.<br />
