Baby best!

Good morning everyone!
Today I have a cute baby card which I made on order for a friend. I wanted to submit it for the Case Study challenge 178 but  I missed the deadline by a few days! :(

I love the way the card turned out though...I had been struggling with it for a few days!

The flower die is from Spellbinders, the little baby is a ready made embellishment from a local market, the cute little charms are from my shopping in Mexico and the stamps and banner die are from the Simon says stamp and Memory box tilted banners stamp and die set.

I found this cute baby's eyes follow you whichever way you turn the card! Such fun!







Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a great day!

Inks are from Memento and Versamark and colours are Faber Castell colour pencils.

Love the way it turned out..don't you?

Washi tape hug

Another post this evening...this time for the Clean and Simple challenge 280 and the CASology cue card BOLD challenge.

These gorgeous washi tape stamps are from Uniko Studio and the sentiment is from verses rubber stamps.

I just love the bright colours from Memento inks, don't you?!



Thanks so much for stopping by!
Good night!



Grandpa rocks!

Hello everyone!
Tonight I am playing three challenges!

The heat embossed sentiment is from the masculine graphic tee stamp and die set from mft stamps and the moustache from Lawn Fawn's Dad's Day stamp set.
I embossed the moustache with 'detailed silver' embossing powder from american crafts, fussy cut it and popped it on with a bit of 3D foam tape.
I just love the silver look!



Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a great evening!

Valentine cards without hearts!

Hi everyone! Happy Valentines Day!
Don't you think there are too many hearts around today?!!! So, I decided to make cards for Valentines day without using hearts.



For the first card I  have used the mason jar  and lid stamp from PTI and filled it up with punched out stars. the sentiment is from Hero Arts.

The second card is actually a postcard...simple and to the point...
The stamps are from Stampendous.
the apple is coloured in with watercolours!
These cards were the best sellers at my stall at the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival 2014!





Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have great Valentines' evening!

Casing Stamping Mathilda

For my second post this evening, I am casing a card made by Godelieve Tijskens...aka Stamping Mathilda.
She is the most amazing card maker and someone who has helped me so much to grow and continues to inspire me with every blogpost !

Here are her set of masculine cards...



and here are mine...





The stamps I have used are from Hero Arts (Newspaper background and Have a Donut), Paper Smooches'Cyber Cafe',  Lawn Fawn 'clear to see', Lawn Fawn (Dad's Day), and Stampendous (Birthday sayings) stamp sets.

To create the illusion of glass, I stamped the background on off white card stock and then stamped and embossed the spectacles over it. i love the pop of the red on the cups...nice a cheery!



Thanks, Godeieve, for inspiring always!!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a good night!
