More diwali cards

Continuing with my diwali card reveal...

To make these cards, I watercoloured two pieces of card stock and then stamped and heat embossed the awesome fireworks (from Stampendous) with gold embossing powder. The sky line is from Memory box and the sentiment from the Hero Arts 'Holiday Sayings' stamp set. 

These were quick and easy...and I love how they turned out! I feel the festive mood creeping up!

 

I am playing a few cahllenges with these cards...

Diwali card reveal!

Oops I deleted my earlier post  by mistake! So I am writing it again!

To make this card and tag, I first stamped the flower motif on a piece of white card stock and coloured around it with Camlin watercolours. I then added some gold with my Signo gold pen for interest.

I then cut up the panel and adhered it to another piece of white card stock along with the gold cardstock edging (from spellbinders dies). I finished them off with sentiments from the Hero Arts 'Holiday Sayings' stamp set.

Fun and festive, don't you think?

Continuing with my diwali card reveal...

Here is a card with a fun chandbali (earrring) motif! 

It is a stamp that I got made from my local stamp manufacturer many years ago. 

I stamped the image on white cardstock with versamark ink and then watercoloured around it with Camlin watercolours.  

I then cut up the panel to  use on two cards. I then added little gold dots with my Signo gold pen one one card and with white acrylic paint on one for interest. 

To create a background, I stamped the same image with Memento's London Fog ink. 

I finished the cards with sentiments from the Hero Arts 'Holiday Sayings' stamp set. I used a left over scrap to make a tag as well.

I am playing the Paper Players challenge with this card!
I used papers from the Doodlebug design 6"x6" paper pack. Oh such fun papers! I finished the card with a button from my stash, sentiment from Simon Says Stamp and some sequins.
I think it is a bright and cheery card.

Enjoy fast food

I am playing the Paper Smooches Sparks 'designer draft' challenge with this card.

The stamp set is Paper Smooches 'Think Fast' and the sentiment is from Paper Smooches 'Scripty Sayings'.  I used Versafine Onyx black to stamp the images, Camlin watercolours to colour the images and then fussy cut them. To complete the draft, I used some gingham  self adhesive fabric tape.

since it is 'Anything goes 'at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, I am linking up this card as well.

Shiny Sunshine

Hey there! Good morning! It's been an awfully productive morning so far! I am playing a few challenges today!

The first one is the' Less is More 'something shiny'  challenge.

I started with the sentiment (from Simon Says Stamp) and then pulled out this 'small circle burst' die from Memory box that I had been hoarding a while. In order to create something shiny, I took the circle from the centre and heat embossed it a couple of times with Gold embossing powder. I then inlaid the die cut onto the card.

I just love the simple effect that it has created.

I am also playing the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday 'Anything goes' challenge.

Science of Love!

I have one more card this evening!

I am playing the CASology 'Science' challenge with this cute tag I made using the 'Lawn fawn'.

It seems perfect for this challenge. I used watercolours and colour pencils to colour the birds... I find using colour pencils over the dried watercolour colouring tends to enhance the colouring.

I had a lot of fun and I hope you are having a fun evening too!
