Craftangles Monthly Challenge #10 'Festivals'

Hello!!

Welcome to the Craftangles Monthly Challenge #10.

This month we are making cards for festivals.

You will find all the challenge details here...do play along!

For cards one and two, I started with a stencilled background using the Craftangles 'Swirly Circle'

stencil and Tim Holtz distress inks. I then stamped, watercoloured and fussy cut the diyas from the Craftangles 'Happy Diwali' stamp set. 

For the first card, I adhered them to two die cut circles (these were left overs from and earlier card, which I had made using the Craftangles 'Rays' stencil and Craftangles white texture paste.)

I then added some self adhesive gem stones to finish the card.

For the second card, I stamped a sentiment from the Craftangles 'Diwali Sentiments' stamp set, adhered the two diyas to the stencilled background and added Craftangles sequins to finish the card.

For cards three and four, I started by creating a background using the Craftangles 'Swirly circle' stencil and Tim Holtz  distress inks.

For the focal image, I used the Craftangles 'Small Ganeshas' stencil and Tim Holtz 'Carved Pumkin' and 'Fiery Brick' distress inks. I adhered it to the background using fun foam. I then finished the card with  silver thread, green metallic sequins and die cut leaves from My Favourite Things.

I loved making these cards...I hope you love them too and will be inspired to play along with our monthly challenge "Festivals".

You can link up your cards here.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a wonderful day!
