Merry Christmas

Hello friends, I am back again with this cute Pink Christmas card!!!

I played with this super cute stamp set from Simon Says Stamp "An Arctic Christmas", I stamped it on Crafter's Companion ultra smooth white cardstock using Memento tuxedo black ink and colored everything using Copics.

Then I masked the colored image and did some ink blending using Distress Oxide inks in Picked Raspberry, Spun Sugar and Shaded Lilac (just on the top). Once dry I removed the mask and splattered some white acrylic paint on top of the panel.

I added lots of glitter to the image for that shiny Christmas-sy feel and I also added some white highlights using white signo gel pen.

The sentiment is heat embossed on some teal blue cardstock using WOW white embossing powder and cut to thin strips and adhered using foam adhesive.

I adhered thin strip of red foil cardstock from DCWV on each side of the card base and then adhered the colored panel directly to the card base.

That's all from me today!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

Hugs,

Chitra

Joy From Our Home to Yours

Hello friends, I am back with a Christmas card to share with you...

I played with my Lawn Fawn stamp again, this set is called Winter Village. The cute images are all stamped on Crafters companion ultra smooth white cardstock and then I colored everything using Prisma color pencils and cut all the images using scissor. I scallop die-cut out a black cardstock and a white heat embossed the sentiment JOY using WOW white embossing powder and then flick some white paint to interpret as falling snow. I also die-cut out some hill side using stitched hillside border dies. The houses and trees are the adhered using foam squares and the added glitter on top of all the houses and tress to show snow. I added three heart die-cuts coming out of one of the house chimney, the die is from Simon Says stamp.

Have A Lovely Day

Hello friends, hope you all are having a great weekend!!
I have a card to share with you all today.. Few days back I got an amazing package from Simon Says Stamp which took me totally by surprise and just couldn't wait to dig and play with my new goodies..! THANK YOU so much SSS for such a generous box of goodies!!!

Here is my card for you all...

There was this stamp set called "Lovely Spring" and  few ink pads in the package, so I wanted to you use those together on this card.
I stamped the images on an A2 size white cardstock to create a nice floral design. Stamped the sentiment on a piece of white cardstock and just to make it stand out a little on the busy pattern behind, I smooshed the sides of the sentiment panel on Delicata Golden glitz ink pad; used some foam squares to adhere it to center of the card front.
Finally added some gold sequins and also added white dots to the flowers using a white gelly roll pen.

Hello friends!! I have a card to share with you all today. I made this card way back in 2015 but never got yo share it...

I wanted to make this kitty with cape as "SUPER KITTY" who is always there for his friends...

• I stamped the kitty from Simon Says Stamp "Trick or Treat" set onto Crafter Companion ultra smooth white cardstock and then colored using copics and then I added some glitter all over the cape. 
• For the background first I took Tim Holtz water color cardstock and did some ink-smooshing with my mini distress inks. 
• Once dry I stamped my sentiment from Simon Says Stamp "Thanks" set.
• I layered the water colored cardstock with a black cardstock which is then directly adhered to a white cardstock.
• And finally added a little red heart using foam square.

Here is a closer look:

That's all from me today.

Then took recollections 100lb white panel and colored the panel using distress ink and foam blender. Then die-cut all the elements from recollections 80lb black cardstock; dies are from Lawn Fawn, Clearly Besotted, and Top Dog Dies; adhered everything directly to the colored panel and used foam squares to adhere the monsters. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp "Trick or Treat" set. I added glossy accents to the monster's eyes and glitter to the basket, heart, stars and bats.

BOOYAH

Hello friends, I am playing along with The Daily Marker 30 Day challenge on Instagram and today I did some no-line coloring on these cute monsters from Simon Says Stamp "Monster Hugs"

I took a white panel and die-cut it using an oval die and then worked on the oval die-cut; first I did some ink sponging on the background for a spooky sky (don't ask me what colors I used, I don't remember :D ). Then I used grass die from Lawn Fawn, and the stars and moon dies are from Top Dog Dies. The grass and stars are directly adhered the oval die. The monsters and moon is added using foam squares.
I adhered the negative panel to a white card base using foam dots and then inlaid the oval die in place, which is adhered using a less dimensional foam tape.
The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn which is stamped using watermark ink and embossed using white embossing powder, and adhered using foam squares.
Finally I added glossy accents to the monsters eyes and lots of glitter. Here is a close up:

Hope you liked my card. I really had fun coloring the monsters and creating this card.
