9 days of Navratri...its GREY today!

Hello! Good morning!

Its day 5 of navratri and we are celebrating the colour GREY today.

I have three cards today....

I have used seasonal sentiments...I think they make for very unusual Diwali or Christmas cards...what do you think?

 

For this card, I heat embossed in silver, the Impression Obsession stripes background on grey cardstock. I then added a frame cut with Simon Says Stamp stitched rectangles. The vase is from paper Smooches..I heat embossed it with Hero Arts white embossing powder to make it look like ceramic. The sentiment is from Hero Arts 'Holiday Sayings' stamp set.

I then made the bird of paradise flower using coloured vellum and added some punched leaves to finish. 

I really love this card...its a personal best for me!

 

For this card, I dry embossed (cuttlebug folder) a panel of silver  cardstock, added pre-made orchid flowers and finished off with a sentiment from Hero Arts 'Holiday Sayings'. I embossed the brown panel with a cuttlebug embossing folder. It was quick and easy and I love the striking colours.

 

For this card, I cut a trellis using the PTI die from silver cardstock. I then added it to the card base and added some punched vellum flowers for the celebratory feel of Diwali.

Thanks so much for stopping by...I'll see you tomorrow with the colour  Orange.

Have a great day!

Today its GREEN

Day four of our Navratri series...We are celbrating GREEN today.
I struggled a bit with this one..till I remembered this gorgeous stamp from Stampendous( elegant borders).
I masked off each layer to create an ombre effect.
The sentiment , from Momenta, is gold embossed.

I love how the card turned out...elegant!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Celebrating Yellow!

Hey there!

Today is the day we celebrate Yellow... day 3 of the nine days of Navratri. 

To make this card I stamped and heat embossed the flower from Hero Arts with white embossing powder ..also from Hero Arts.

I then watercoloured the background with  Windsor and Newton watercolours. I then added the sentiment from Lawn fawn's 'Lunar Lights' stamp set and added a die cut butterfly...which I cut using the Spellbinders shapeabilities dies and sparkly yellow card stock from DCWV.

This card surely celebrates Yellow..don't you think?

I am linking this card to the Simon Says Stamp Monday 'Watercolour ' Challenge and 

Virginia's view 'All thing coloured challenge'.

Happy Navratri

Hey there!
Its Navratri! 9 days and nights of festivities before the festival of Dussehra!
It is the festival that celebrates the Goddess all over the country.
Each of the 9 days is celebrated with different colour representing a different avatar of the Goddess.
Today celebrates the colour Red.

Though I am not a religious person, I have decided to make a card everyday to celebrate the various colours...I am an artist after all!

Today I have made  really simple CAS tag...
And, I absolutely love the sentiment from simon Says Stamp.

The Stamp used is from Hero Arts and I used my Steadler fine liners to colour the flowers red.

Thanks so much for stopping by...

See you tomorrow with the colour Blue!
