Hi all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Back with another card for<span id="goog_1544633760"></span> AAAcard challenge. <span id="goog_1544633761"></span> I had bought these beautiful blooms stamps from Uniko on black Friday and wanted to use it. When thought of ink blending and card made in few minutes, i had no other choice except to stamp everything on white cardstock directly. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This card seems crazy idea but don't know.,I can't really resist the idea i get in my mind and will be happy if i execute it even though it turns out bad. I will have the satisfaction that i tried and then creating a space for another silly idea. Coming to my card,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For the first card:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1.I had cut a cardstock to ink blend that portion with distress oxide pistachio after stamping the butterflies with versamark and heat embossed with white powder. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2.Then using a Misti i stamped the big flower with distress inks 2times by applying the ink on the stamp with a blending tool. It actually makes the process easy. The ink is spread evenly. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Masked the flower and stamped the flowers with distress ink citron.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. I heat embossed the flower, leaves and the ink blended portion with clear embossing powder and that makes the whole card shine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
5.I finally heat embossed the sentiment on blackcardstock and cut the strip.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The whole card is pasted on a blank white cardstock using foam adhesives. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
For the card 2:<br />
<br />
Its the same procedure as the first one except with few more butterflies. This actually is the sample card i made first and then i thought of trying out other colors and reducing butterflies and thus the first card happened with even less time than this one.<br />

Hi all,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have made a card using the stencil techniques from the class in Altenew Academy course.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I do not have any embossing paste so i used texture paste instead. The stencil is from expressionscraft and the stamps are from Altenew. I started by ink blending the portion of the cardstock by masking the top portion. I used marmalade distress ink. I added texture paste on to the stencil by masking the same top portion again. I added gold glitter paper on the edge and added few flowers which are clear embossed. I applied 3d modpodge to get some dimension on the base of the flowers which doesn't show up much in the picture. I stamped the sentiment and clear embossed it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is the first time i used the texture paste on a card. I colored the flowers using Carandache pencils.I have done something new because of the course. Thanks to Laurel Beard for the encouragement in the videos. I finally tried it. </div>

Hi all<br />
<br />
Posting my work after a long time.I recently joined in the <span style="color: red;"><a href="https://altenewacademy.com/" target="_blank">Altenew Academy certification program</a></span> to get inspired by many artists around the world and improve my cardmaking skill. I hardly get time now a days as we are moving to our home country after many years. I am in the middle of packing the stuff but as i am very excited to join the program and do not want to miss the opportunity, i have started with level 1 course in AECP<br />
<br />
<span style="color: purple;"><b>Card 1:</b></span>I started by learning about layering the stamps. The videos make the stamping with layered stamps so easy. I was very scared to stamp initially before joining in the program but now i feel its all in the practice which makes it simple. My first card is made using PLAYFUL BLOOMS stamp set. I have used a pattern paper which is the one i got for stamp packaging. I do not remember the name but i saved it from long time to use it and i finally got the chance. I stamped on the sides with versamark ink which says I just wanted to say and embossed with clear embossing powder.<br />
<br />
I stamped the flowers with Altenew inks and clear embossed. Stamped the leaves with citron distress ink. I adhered both flower and leaves with foam sheets which are purple and green respectively. I stamped the sentiment using versamark and then versafine. I then clear embossed the sentiment.<br />
Hope i improve as i go on with the course and make better cards .<br />

<br />
<span style="color: yellow;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple;">Card 2: </span> The second card also uses the same stampset. I first embossed the background with Darice embossing folder, used the doily Martha stewart punch. For the flowers this time i stamped the outline of the flower on a pattern paper and just used one layer of the flower to stamp on the inside. I fussy cut the flowers. The leaves are from the FOCUS ON YOU stampset from Altenew. Completed with a sentiment embossed in white.I adhered one flower with foam tape and another without foam so it looks like they are on top of each other. Its a very simple card .<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hi all </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Made a card using the inspiration photo from Paper smooches June challenge. I had thought of the daisies and chevron after seeing the spikes of pineapple. Here are the steps for the card</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. Diecut the white cardstock using stitched rectangle die. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2.Embossed more than half of the card with chevron embossing folder. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3.Distressed a cardstock with rasberry and mustard seed and diecut daisies.For the leaf i used paper smooches loopy leaf die which was actually found in my scraps. I think i was supposed to do a background with distress inks green and yellow followed by stenciling of the pattern ,which i did not like and i thought of cutting the leafs instead of throwing. Finally put in to use now. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. Sentiment is from the hope stampset which is also from Papersmooches. I remembered that i won this stampset in the challenge by savanaah long back , i recollected only when going through old posts as i started crafting after 4 yrs now. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hi all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Made my first masking card. It seems challenges make me think more and active. So thought i would participate more often and try new techniques even though i feel my stamping is pretty basic. Now that i gradually feeling good when stamping(no fear) ,i wanted to try out more. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are the steps for the cardmaking</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. I stamped the hibiscus (mudra stamps from India) randomly with versafine black ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder and started wetting the paper followed by coloring with watercolors. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Stamped the leaves with versamark and heat embossed with pearl green embossing powder. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. I found that after coloring my flowers were not as bright as they were first before coloring so tried stamping again with versafine and clear embossed. As i didnot have MISTI it was hard to stamp properly as my cardstock also curled up with coloring but finally stamped properly except two which you can see in the card. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I would have thrown the card in my scraps if i had not heard in the video of Kristina when she found few watercolored droplets in the inside of the card that 'its fine with me as it looks really like a handmade card'. This made me stop me from throwing and it actually looks like a blurred image. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4.Blinged it up with rhinestones. Stamped the sentiment and heat embossed which again has some mistakes. My white embossing powder is almost 6 yrs old and it actually turned to little yellow. I had to buy antistatic pouch and powder soon. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have lots to improve but happy with my first attempt.</div>

Hi<br />
<br />
Made an anniversary card with a lovely pattern paper and diecuts.<br />
<br />
Coloured the diecut roses using Watercolor pencils. Making the two opposite flowers look same when coloring was a big task for me. Finally satisfied with my second attempt of coloring. will share my first card in my next blogpost.Added two layers of flower diecuts. Embossed the sentiment , added 3 layers of LOVE diecut.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hi all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Made a one layer card first time. Its a simple card but i always had fear of stamping on the cardstock but finally happy with the outcome that too with first attempt. Stamped the swirls and butterfly with versamark ink and clear embossed the image. Felt this sentiment will be appropriate as the swirls had hearts. will take a pic in the sun tomorrow so that the shine due to embossing on the card is visible.</div>

Hi all<br />
Made a quick card for fusion challenge. I used both the sketch and colors.<br />
Here are the steps.<br />
1. At first i distressed the cardstock with various colors and sprinkled some water.<br />
2. Die cut the squares and put the embossed cardstock to the back of the square.<br />
3. Die cut and colored the images which are clearlybesotted stamps , stuck using foam squares.<br />
4. Stamped the background with versamark and star stamp, clear embossed them.<br />
5. Finally embossed the sentiment on black cardstock.<br />

Hi all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Just in time for the challenges. Was thinking a CAS card for a while as Iam not used to do such cards, when suddenly got a thought to make a border using sentiments. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are the steps.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. First stamped the sentiment around the cardstock and clear embossed it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2.Die cut Happy ,friend and placed a distressed cardstock on the back of it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3.Took a long time to decide whether to make shaker or not but thought the color will not be visible if it is shaker card so just put an acetate sheet under it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. Cut birthday die cut 4 times and pasted, finally added a love rhinestone.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hi all</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Back with another card with my new idea. Here is the procedure.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. At first i masked a portion of the card and embossed the flower pattern followed by distressing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Stenciled the other portion using Mudrastencils with distress inks and outlined using microtip blackmarker.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Watercolored the background of the flowers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4.Used memorybox butterfly die and clearly besotted die to stamp the sentiment on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
5.Finally colored the centre portion of the flowers using versamark pen and clear embossed it so the center looks darker. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here is the CAS card made with the martha stewart punch. I started by punching both sides of the cardstock which is one third of the card size. Masked and distressed the ends and heat embossed the butterflies.</div>

Hi all,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Made a card using a loopy leaf die from paper smooches. It is so amazing to see how the challenges make me think more and excited to see the result. The challenge at papersmooches for the month May is using flower dies but unfortunately i do not have any flower stamps or dies from Papersmooches. So I had to make a flower from the leaf die i had. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1.Emboosed the background using darice embossing folder. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Used the tag die from clearlybesotted ,distressed it and used star stencil on it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Sentiments are also from clearlybesotted.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4.I used the first top petal of the leaf to make the flower. I cut the foam and violet cardstock 10 times to make 2 flowers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
5. For the leaves i stamped and embossed using clear embossing powder and colored using Carandache watercolor pencils. </div>

Hi all<br />
<br />
Back again after a while before taking a long break. I wanted to share a cute album(9 by 9 inches) i made for my kids( yet to be born second one) . I would like to share my album Little by little as i had to edit almost 20 pics, will try to put few in one pic. Sharing the album cover first. Will edit the details also slowly atleast before my due date(in 2weeks). After so many mistakes , learnings here is the first photo.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All started after buying the Marthastewart scoring board and fiskars trimmer in creativa zurich. I always wanted to do an album inspired by many crafters and finally tried mine after seeing couple of videos from youtube. Bought Bundle of joy from echo park , some stamps , coordinated dies from clearly besotted and then got some courage to do mine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The cover is 9 by 9 inches and inside pages are 7.5 by 7.5inches. I thought of doing the album with rings first but later on realized that its not fitting and i dont have any bigger rings. so done with hinges and pasted each page. Covered the middle part of each page with washi tape.</div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Hi all</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Made a home decor with an inspirational quote. I liked this quote CARPE DIEM which means <span style="background-color: white; color: #252525; line-height: 22.3999996185303px;">Seize the day, put very little trust in tomorrow (the future). </span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #252525;"><span style="line-height: 22.3999996185303px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #252525;"><span style="line-height: 22.3999996185303px;">I bought this hexogonal canvas in an exhibition last sunday and first applied gesso all over it. I then applied the distress inks broken china all over it and peacock feathers to the borders and sprinkled some water,made the diecut doily as a stencil and inked with distress inks. You can find the doily stencil behind the tree. I applied textured paste on the branch and leaves stencil and put quilled flowers. Painted the branch and leaves with acrylic paints.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">stamped with hero arts leafy vines background stamp with peacock feathers distress inks on left side and right side used the prima stencil with the sponge dauber. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jAE3BZP2XBw/VDaY9_XTRbI/AAAAAAAAQj0/JWZDhZMPJt0/s1600/SAM_1138.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jAE3BZP2XBw/VDaY9_XTRbI/AAAAAAAAQj0/JWZDhZMPJt0/s1600/SAM_1138.jpg" height="275" width="320" /></a></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #252525;"><span style="line-height: 22.3999996185303px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #252525;"><span style="line-height: 22.3999996185303px;"> Diecut the alphabets 4 times each so that it gives a chipboard look (suggested in one of Tejal's cards). 4th layer of the alphabets is the gold glittered paper. 'Seize the day' is the chipboard alphas which are gessoed and painted with blue silk glaze. I don't really like the font of it but i wanted to put the small letters so had to go with it. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #252525;"> The white bird is the prima's shabby chic treasure, cut the clock from the prima 12 by 12 pattern paper and inked the edges with vintage photo. Added the dienamics flourish die and burlap butterfly on the bottom. Added the pearls lace which i had from long time around the edge of the canvas and finished with some pearls,sequins and glitters. </span></span><br />

Used black ,white and maroon colour. I embossed with darice folder each half in white and black cardstocks. The image is heat embossed with black embossing powder and the umbrella is heat embossed on a maroon paper and put using foam dots. Made a flower with spellbinders rose creation dies and the sentiment is stamped with a versafine ink.<br />
