A Floral Card

Hello Friends,

Sooo excited to share this card , here's how it looks -

Well i am really hooked on to making roses , i started this card by making the roses first and than finally picked some of my not so used dies. The technique for these spellbinders roses is something i hit upon by chance , is totally new to me as well and i am just loving it ....

Here's a close up-

I have created the BG for this card using Gesso , distress inks - walnut stain , vintage photo and the Kaisercarft script stamp.The frame is Memory Box which has been embossed and coloured using LSG sprays.

Both the Butterfly and the roses have been paper pierecd from Prima Lyric papers .The sentiment is from Penny black and the gorgeous flourish is a marriana die coloured using shabby shutters distress stain ..

So how do you like my card ..Love to read your comments , Thanks a lot for stopping by.
Have a great weekend ahead !

Blooms n buds

Hi friends,

This card from me , is inspired from the amazing cards that i keep seeing on Pinterest .

I started this card by making the blooms first ,somehow i just wanted to create and use yellow coloured roses .Here's a closer view-

Also I just love adding layers and dimension to my cards . I have tried highlighting the blooms using l natural fibers and torn wooden elements. The Ankara Lace doily peeking from the first layer is shaded using antique bronze distress stain ,love the colour !

And here's a final view -

I have added some texture to the MS wildflower border by embossing it with gesso.
And seeing the floral mood of the card i thought it can do without a sentiment . Hope you agree with me . Thanks for passing by , hope you like my work , do let me know your precious comments . Good day !

A Criss Cross Card

Hello friends,

This is my first attempt at a criss cross card and got to say its fun to make this.Well i have gone back to the basics again and for this card i have gone pastel and used one of my favourite colour combo pink and green

So with much ado , here's my card -

I have added an insert card for the sentiment piece and decorated it using floral ovals and the pretty MS Doily lace punch.

The colouring is done with Distress markers and copics and i have outlined both the images with the fine tipped spectra brown marker , this is also great in highlighting hair as well.The sparkle on the flowers is from the crystal dust glitter by DCAM .The edges on the pink background piece and the big center bloom have been brushed with the pearlescent strawberry mist , doesnt it add a lovely glow ?

Thats it from me , hope you like my card , would love to hear from you ! Thanks for stopping by , Have a great day ahead !
