Flower from a leaf


Hi all,

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. 

1.Emboosed the background using darice embossing folder. 
2. Used the tag die from clearlybesotted ,distressed it and used star stencil on it. 
3. Sentiments are also from clearlybesotted.
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. 
5. For the leaves i stamped and embossed using clear embossing powder and colored using Carandache watercolor pencils. 




I donot know if this is eligible for the challenge as i didnot use any flower stamps or dies but happy how this turned out

Hi all Made a card for Freshly Made sketches.  A simple Quilled christmas tree. Another card with the same green pattern paper. Layered it with washi tape and a ribbon. Used coloured rhinestones and a star. I applied glitter glue to the edges of the pattern paper. http://stampinsistersinchrist.blogspot.ch/2012/11/challenge-167-last-challenge.html http://craftycreationschallenges.blogspot.ch/2012/11/197-christmas-is-coming.html http://lexiscreations.blogspot.ch/2012/11/challenge-79-and-winners-of-78.html http://glitternsparklechallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk/2012/11/challenge-8.html Hope you like it Thanks Kavitha

Focus on Texture

Image
Hi all, I have made a card using the stencil techniques from the class in Altenew Academy course. 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.  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.  Hope you like it.
