Have a rainy day!!!!

Hope everyone is having good time enjoying this pleasant climate.!! These rainy days reminds me of my childhood days where I used to play in rain...But now
whenever it rains I used to watch it from the window thinking of those good old days.
Having that in mind I created this card




The actual stamp was like a girl holding a star . Using masking technique I stamped this girl without that star and added  this hand drawn umbrella . 
By spraying water I created the water effect at the bottom .

Tried this quilting technique with patterned papers today and am satisfied with the results. Used some of my scraps to create this card.

Masculine Card

Hi!!!
        A quick post on masculine card! A very simple and CAS type card that I made today.





Created landscape with distress inks. Thought of getting a scattered clouds effect with blue distress ink, but i didnot succeed :( Hand drawn the golf stick and colored it. Placed a half pearl for golf ball. And stamped the sentiment .

Braided ribbon tag

Hi all,
       
Happened to see  ribbon braided headband tutorial in YouTube. It was an excellent technique and wanted to try it immediately. The outcome was gorgeous and that's when I thought to implement that somewhere in lulupu bingo challenge. Here is the result.......

Took ribbons, patterned papers,chipboard grid to create this simple tag.








 

Those flowers and leaves were handmade without any punches or dies. A very simple tag. Hope you like it

Simple pop up card

Good evening !!

               Had fun making this pop up card. Even though it is very easy to make I found it difficult to decorate the card. I did not decorate much ,as the pop up mechanism is the center of attraction.









Those flowers were made without any punches . stamped butterflies and fussy cut to decorate. Placed my favorite stamp and die cut in the center and finished this card . 

Used patterned paper, dies, ribbons,leaf punch, pearls and butterfly

Heat embossing - My new interest

Good morning!!
 
              When i saw lulupu's bingo grid challenge ,without much confusions I chose the grid with heat embossing , ribbons and sprays because,  just recently I got to know about heat embossing and I have started exploring  this.

             I was so ignorant that i didnot even know i need a heat gun to emboss. I thought the hair dryer will do it :(

            I am yet to buy a heat gun to emboss. With the help of my dosa tawa I embossed the flower :p.
       
            I know i must try another wonderful card with different grid definitely.





Distressed with yellow and red. Those flowers were heat embossed and sprayed with water ...

With the same technique  tried different color combination 



I know the silver spray I made at home did not work well.  
Any suggestions for improving embossing and spray technique is really appreciated .

Celebrate heartily

Hi all

         I am getting comfortable to make CAS cards after seeing so many from several other great blogs.  Discovering a new way of using it daily and I absolutely love my distress inks.

      I made this card for CASual Fridays blog challenge .






Handmade the heart banner without any dies . Using the masking technique colored with distress inks. I was amazed by the result once the masking tape was removed.   




The heart banner is not too perfect still I adore this :p 
This is the heart banner I made for this card. Hope you like it .
