Waving hello

Hello friends,

I am sharing this cute card with you all...

I used this super cute stamp set from Lawn Fawn 'Mermaid For You' stamp set which is colored using Copics on Crafters Companion ultra smooth white cardstock. The green cardstock is from Simon Says Stamp, I die-cut the window using LF 'Stitched rectangle' die and sides are die-cut using LF 'Stitched Border' die. The ocean colored panel is done using Memento inks and splattered little water on Beilo cardstock, I also used little vellum for wave, adhered all the elements using foam squares. Sentiment is white embossed and added a little heart then adhered using foam squares. I also added some glitter to the mermaids and merman's tail.

Here is a close up:

Hope you like it!!

I Love You Sew Much

Hello friends,
I have a card to share with you all today..

I have used Lawn Fawn 'Sewn With Love' stamp set which is colored using Prisma color pencils and then cut out using my scissor. For the heart background I used Heidi Swapp 'confetti' stencil and used Picked Raspberry distress ink on a white panel, then I flicked some gold watercolor from Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors for some more interest. Part of the sentiment is embossed using white embossing powder on a black cardstock and the word SEW is embossed using gold embossing powder.

Hope you like my card..

I'm quite fawned of you

Hello Again...
So my last post did not go live on time and it just went up this morning, if you are interested you can check it here..

I have another card for you today and love how this one turned out!!

I played with Neat and Tangled 'Lumberjack Love'. All the images are stamped on Crafters Companion ultra smooth white cardstock and colored using copics and cut it out with scissor. For the background I did some water coloring with distress inks on a watercolor cardstock and die-cut it out with my We are Memory Keepers circle nested die. I adhered all the images using foam squares and also adhered the water color panel using foam squares. For the sentiment I die-cut the word TIMBER out of a shiny red cardstock using Lil' Inker Designs dies and the rest of the sentiment is from the same stamp set which is heat embossed on a black cardstock. Finally I added glitter to some of the images and added little white dots using white gel pen.
Check out all the dimensions... :)

Hope you like my card!!

It's Your Special Day

Hello friends...
I have a fun card to share with you all today...

Yes!!!! I made a pop-up box card today...
It was so much fun to create this, I simply followed the instructions from Anna Kossakovskaya video instruction, so if you want to try your hands on this type of card check out her YT channel.

 Lawn Fawns 'Out Of this World' stamp set and some images are colored using Copics and some using Prisma color pencils. I used LF cloud border dies for the inner panel. For the galaxy or outer space I flicked white and silver water color from Gansai Tambi watercolors on a black cardstock and then adhered everything to the base. Used some acetate to adhere all the images so that it looks like everything is floating in space. The sentiment is white heat embossed and I also lightly added some white ink so that it does not look stark black.
Here is a close up:

 Hope you liked my pop-up box card...

birthday wishes from us

Hello friends!!
I have a super cute card to share with you all today!!

I know you might have seen this kind of layout but I really really wanted to make this style of scene card with this stamp set and I am very happy how this turned out.
This stamp set is from Avery Elle 'Woodland Wonders'; I stamped all the images on Crafters Companion ultra smooth white cardstock and colored everything using Prisma color pencils and cut out all the images using scissor. The cardstock for the background is from Simon Says Stamp. I used lots of foam squares to adhere everything down then used my white gel pen to add some highlights and finally added lots of glitter to the butterflies and flowers and on the leaves...
Here is a close up...

That's all from me for today.
Hope you liked my card...

Birthday Cards Round 2

Hello again friends!!!
I am back to share few more cards...


Card 1:

A Simple one layer card using a super cute MFT 'Hog Heaven' set. The images are stamped on the card base directly and colored using Prisma color pencils. The hog in the front is stamped on a separate white cardstock and colored using Prismas as well, then cut out with scissor and popped it on the front using some foam squares. I finally added some heart die-cuts from SSS and also added the sentiment.
Here is a close up:

Card 2:



 For this card I played with my Avery Elle Stamps 'Be a Unicorn'. The image is colored using Prismas and for the background I used my cheap Crayola watercolors to add the rainbow colors. The sentiment is gold embossed on a black cardstock using WOW embossing powder. Finally I drew some clouds with my white gel pen, added some sequins and also added little glitter.

Card 3:

Another clean and simple card with lots of coloring. This stamp is from Lawn Fawn called 'So Smooth', images are all stamped directly on the card base and colored using Prismas. Then stamped the sentiment and did some doodling on top and bottom of the card with a black marker.





Card 4:







This funny llama is from Gerda Steiner Designs 'Llama tell you', images are stamped and colored using Prismas on Crafters Companion ultra smooth white cardstock; cut out with scissor. The I die-cut out an oval frame and colored the inside panel with distress inks, I also die-cut out the number using MFT dies and colored it with distress inks then added everything using foam squares.


That's all from me for today, hope you liked my cards...

Birthday Cards!!!!

Hello crafty friends, how have you been!!!

I have been MIA from my blog for quite a while but if you follow me on Instagram (chitra01) you can see all my work there where I share all my cards and coloring fun… regularly… J

Kkk…. So I wanted to share few cards which I recently made…

Card 1:

I have used this cute little girl from MFT stamps ‘Green Pastures’; I colored her with my Copics and cut her out using my scissor. For the card background I used a stencil from Hero Arts called ‘Scales’ and distress inks. I stamped the sentiment directly on the front of the card base using black memento ink and then the image is adhered using some foam squares.

Card 2:

This card layout is similar o the first card. The image is from MFT stamps ‘Super Boy’; I colored him with my Copics and cut out using my scissor. For the card background I used a stencil from MFT called ‘English Brick’ and ‘Burnt Orange’ ink from Simon Says Stamp. I stamped the sentiment directly on the front of the card base using black memento ink and then the image is adhered using some foam squares.

Card 3:

These cute little monsters are from Clearly Besotted ‘Out of this world’; I colored them up using my Prisma color pencils and cut them out using scissor. Then I stamped the huge planet image directly on front of my card and colored that too with my Prismas, then masked it and splattered some black watercolor for the galaxy look. Once the splatters was dry, I stamped the sentiment on front of the card base using black memento ink and finally adhered all the monsters using foam squares, I also added some finishing touches to all the monsters and the planet using black and white gel pen.

Card 4:

Again played with my MFT stamps this time ‘Llama Love’; all the images are colored using Prismas and cut with scissor, here I have very loosely followed this week’s MFT sketch challenge. The kraft panel is die-cut out using Top Dog dies, and then flesh adhered to the card base. The sentiment is white heat embossed on a black cardstock using WOW white embossing powder and adhered using foam squares and then I adhered all the images as well using foam squares. Finally added few heart die-cuts from Simon Says Stamp ‘Holiday Shapes’ die and added little glitter on top of it.

Hope you liked all my cards, I will be back tomorrow with more card...

Thanks a ton for stopping by and have a great day!!!!
