shabby chic card and box set...

Hi everyone!

I think I'm going to post regularly from now onwards! ;)

I made this shabby chic card and box set for Crafters Corner's challenge inspiration.

Here it is...

For the first time, I tried sewing on the card.

I made a box to match with the card. The glittered butterfly has been in my stash for quite a long time, it felt appropriate on the box! :)

This is how the box looks...

Closer look of the glittered butterfly...

Nothing much to say about the card...

A big thanks to my friend Hussena who sent some beautiful crochet lace and pearl head pins...

My card was inspired by Hussena's and Pallavi's creations. They make awesome shabby chic projects with many layers that don't seem cluttered at all. However my card is relatively simple with just two layers.

Time for a confession- I loved this card and box set! :-p

Supplies used-
PP for the card- Fairy rhymes 6x6 paper pad- Colour conceptions store
PP for the box- Nupur
Flowers- Maninder.
Sentiment- Inspired By Stamping Store.
Leaves- Crafters Corner

Entering DCAM challenge- Shabby is chic

Also entering IBSI challenge. Actually I have made this card based on these colors and forgot to link it up at IBS! :-p

Also linking up to IBS customer gallery contest for September (http://joannamunster.com/customer-gallery/ ). Used sentiment from Big Notes III set.

some gloss and some shimmer!!

I have a simple card to share with you all...

I have used my favourite stamp set from CAS-ual Fridays again.. This set (wonderful words) is AWESOME beyond words. The flowers in the set are soooo cute!!! The sentiment is from IBS 'The sky's the limit' stamp set.

I wanted to participate in ...
Lulupu's challenge (stamp, colour and emboss)- I stamped the flowers, coloured them with water colour pencils and scored lines horizontally and diagonally (This word reminds me of Diagon Alley in Harry Potter! :-p) with the help of my MS score board to give the embossed look.

Moxie Fax 'All that glitters is gold' challenge- Used gold pearls and painted the petals and centres of the flowers with Lindy's glitz spray (Cactus gold)) using a paint brush.

Addicted to stamps and more- Make your mark challenge- Used water colour pencils.

Also entering IBS customer gallery contest- September (http://joannamunster.com/customer-gallery/). The sentiment is from IBS- 'The sky is the limit' stamp set.

Here is the card...

The embossed lines can be seen in this pic...

Can you see the gloss? Applied glossy accents over the flowers...Covered the sentiment with glossy accents too....

Here is the whole card....

Here you can see the shimmer on the petals ..

CAS+ Ombre

Hi!!

Umm... Missed me? :-p Pls say that you have! :) I have been very busy (read lazy!) and couldn't post anything, not even on my FB page.

If I don't share my projects right away, this post might as well remain in the drafts for ages!

I've some four cards to share...

I made one for CAS-ual Fridays and Moxie Fab World's Tuesday Trigger.

Here is my card

I stamped the blooms on a white CS and coloured them with a Faber Castell bi-color pencil. (I LOVE these pencils. Thanks to awesome girl Tejal for introducing them to me. She has made an awesome video too... check this post.) I used a single pencil to get the three shades. I wanted to achieve an ombre effect. Stuck a PP on kraft CS and stuck the flowers using a foam tape to add some dimension.

Playing along-

 And Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger- Honoring Ombre challenge.

Supplies used-
CAS-ual Friday's Loving thoughts for sentiment and wonderful words for blooms
Faber castell bicolor pencils and blender- Thanks Tejal :)
PP- Simple stories Color vibe collection paper pad from Crafters Corner.
Onix black ink pad- RAK ...from Maninder.

Hi! A very quick, short post...

Made this card for Fusion card challenge. I followed both the sketch and picture inspiration.

A CAS card and a card with layers!

Dear friends,

I have few cards to share with you all... been postponing since long. I got sometime today to spend time with my blog! :)

My first card is the DT project for 'For the love of crafting'. The card looks CAS in spite of all the layers. LOVE the stamp set from CAS-ual fridays!

The next card isn't my type. Wanted to try something new. I took the help of a sketch as I went blank with no ideas!! Here is sketch that I followed.

Here is my card... I loved the card...It's something I haven't tried till now...lots of layers...Used stencil and Lindy's mists from Crafters Corner on this one. The gorgeous flower is from Itsy Bitsy...

How's it? Would love to know from you.... :) Do leave some love too.... :)

Thanks Hussena for sending the punch outs... :)

My love for CAS style...

Two more cards to share with you all...

Here is one, I made this one for CAS-ual Fridays challenge. For the present challenge, they ask us to use buttons...

The second card is made for CAS(E) this sketch! challenge.

So that is it for now...

See you...take care! :)
