HOCUS POCUS

 Hello friends,

I am sharing this fun CAS card with you all today!! This card is for MFT stamps 2022 Card Design Superstar contest and I am entering this to Clean And Simple category..

I have used quite a few MFT Dienamics to create this card and those are as follows: Lowercase Stitched alpha dienamics, Jack-o-lantern dienamics and Witches Cauldron dienamics. For the cauldron and bubbles I used some green micro-beads to add some interest to my CAS design.

The greeting is from Best Witches stamp set which is stamped using black ink.

All the element on this card is cut 2-3 times to give some thickness and also so that it could stand out on the card. While sticking everything down I didn't had much space for the bubbles and I was adamant to include that in my card so I came up with this idea to blow few letters up in the air so the bubbles can have some space and it also made it look interesting..

Sharing few more pics below..

Hope you enjoyed my card.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

Mice Birthday Party

 Hello friends,

I am sharing another card for MFT card design superstar content and this one is for the Innovation Master category.

I made a box card, which is also the requirement for this category. Since I don't have the Outside the box dienamics from MFT I made it by myself by cutting and scoring the required measurements. Here I have used white cardstock as my base and then adhered a peach cardstock over all the sides then added another layer of cardstock which is inkblended using Peacock Feather and Cracked Pistachio oxide inks, also it is smaller than the first layer. For the main background panel I used Rolling Cloud stencil and same oxide inks to create my cloud background. I also used Grassy Hills dienamics to create the grass panels. I splattered some water on all the colored panels, once dry splattered some white ink on top and once that was dry I also splattered some diluted Peacock Feather ink. 

The images are all stamped on white alcohol ink friendly cardstock using Memento Rich Cocoa ink and colored everything using copic markers and then cut them all out with my scissors. Then adhered everything down with some liquid glue. I also used some acetate pieces to adhere the confettis and also two of the balloons.

I will leave you with lots of pics, just trying to show the fun mice Birthday party scene going on..

Hope you like my card, I really really enjoyed making this card. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

 Hello friends!! I am back to blogging after a long gap!!

I am sharing a Christmas card with this adorable Llama's from MFT Stamps which I got last year.. 

Here I am following the current MFT Sketch challenge 612

To create my card I started by stamping all the images that I need on Crafters Companion ultra smooth white cardstock and colored everything with my markers, then used my trusty scissor to cut the image out. I took another piece of white carstock and used my nesting round dies to die-cut out two circles, I then did some inkblending with Tattered Rose and Worn Lipstick Distress oxide inks. I splattered some water and some diluted worn lipstick to add some interest. I adhered the images onto the circle panels and adhered the panels using foam squares, before adhering the panels I added a design paper to the card base which is from Lawn Fawn.

I added lots of stars which is die-cut out of a silver cardstock and a die from Simon Says Stamp called "Holiday Shapes". Also the sentiment is heat embossed on pink and red cardstock using silver embossing powder. Finally I added few white details and sparkle to the images.

MFT and Friends - July 2021 release

Hello friends,

OMG!!! I am super excited to be part of MFT & Friends feature for their amazing July release.

I have made few cards for todays post.

My first card uses this beautiful Tiddly Inks image called 'Double Scoop of Cute' stamp set.

 

I stamped and die-cut the image using its coordinating die-namics and colored the cutie using copics.

I took a panel of yellow cardstock and white heat embossed it using 'Paint Splatter' background stamp. I took another white cardstock panel which is smaller than the card base itself and cut in an angle, I stamped my sentiment on it and adhered the sweet girl using foam squares.

For my second card I have used 'Something to Squack About' stamp set.

I stamped and die-cut the image, colored everything using copic.

I took a panel of blue cardstock and used MFT 'Cloud' stencil and then splattered some ink on it.

I then adhered the birdies and tree branch using foam squares, leaves are all adhered directly to the card base, I rounded the sides of the leaves to give it some dimension.

Sentiment is stamped on the card base using a brown ink.

For my last card I have used this utterly cute rat from 'Sweet Surprise' stamp set, he is such a cute little thing....

I stamped and die-cut out the image using its co-ordinating die-namics, and the image is colored using copic.

For the background I masked the bottom portion and used 'Ray of Light' stencil and then masked the other part to create the ground and then splattered the same yellow ink on top.

The sentiment is heat embossed using silver embossing powder.

I also used Happy Birthday Party die-namics, its such a fun die set I am totally in love with it!

Lastly I added few white dots to add some interest to the image.

I hope you like the cards. Hop on over to the MFT blog to check out all the beautiful creations from the design team and other friends joining today for the release.
