INKS, FEATHERS AND BUTTERFLIES

Hello dear friends, Martha Lucia here to share with you a fun selection of cards using different elements. Each of these card was created using different inks to create special effects. Let me show the first.


To create this card I used the Feather stamp set and the embossing technique. First I used the dry embossing over the second layer and I stamped the sentiment with heat embossing technique using Verdigris Embossing Powder. To complement the design I stamped two small feathers included on the same stamp set with the same embossing powder, fussy cut them with scissors, decorated them with gold metallic thread and paste over the dry embossing with dimensionals. Finally I pasted the decorated layer over the card base.


  My second card was made using the stamp set Indian Motif, one of my favorites. I stamped the main images with Kaleidacolor Ink to have the rainbow tones.


  I used Bouquet Kaleidacolor Ink for both images. I jut turn the images to have different tones. For the numbers I used the Numbers Dies with dark brown metallic card stock. The base and second layer of this card are very vanilla card stock and the second layer was pasted with dimensionals to have more high on the project.

  
  The third card is a butterfly card created with the fabulous stamp set Doodle Butterfly.


   I stamped one of the butterflies included on the stamp set using Crumb Cake classic Ink, the same color of the second layer. Then in a separate piece of Whisper White card stock, I stamped the bold butterfly using VersaFine Satin Red and Clear Embossing Powder and fussy cut this image with scissors. I pasted the butterfly over the layer  using dimensionals and stamped the sentiment with VersaFine and clear embossing powder. I pasted the decorated layer over the Real Red card base and decorated with a few rhinestones.

Time to wish Happy Diwali

Hey all,

Ria on this side. This is the second post of this month and I am loving all the designs coming on to this blog! I started the month's post with traditional looking ethnic Cards, moved to Indian wedding cards and now diwali cards. I must admit all these styles I am trying for the very first time far from my CAS style. I hope you like these too :)

Coming to Diwali cards now. Diwali or Dipawali is the festival of lights, as maximum of us know, right? But to me it is the festival of bright colors (unlike Holi) as during this festival, people buy a lot of new clothes and wear those on the festive day.

Without wasting much time, lets move on to the projects...

PROJECT 1


I am in love with the Indian Motifs and I am sure this phase of the year is the best time to use this stamp set for all the festivals!
  • I stamped the design from the Indian Motifs with Gold on a red cardstock and cut it into this pattern excluding the central portion.
  • I used Solid Shapes (circle biggest) to make the semi circle with distress ink and the diamond shape from the same set with varied inks blended together.
  • I masked the area and blended some Lime kiss yellow ink
  • Finally the sentiment with gold embossing.
PROJECT 2



My second card is inspired by a Rangoli that people make on Diwali.
  • I took two shades of metallic paper.
  • I stamped the images from the Indian motif in two shades of gold



PROJECT 3


  • I blended some ink with the Grid Stencil and applied mist on it.
  • I stamped the design from the indian motif to create a 'diya'
  • For the flame, I layered three layers of glitter sheets.
  • A scallop cut to frame the diya and the sentiment with some enamel dots.

PROJECT 4



  • For this, I took different scraps of paper and stamped designs randomely with distress inks and sparkle embossing powder finished it.
  • I made the flames with the same technique as I applied in the previous project.
  • I arranged these scraps to make candles.
  • I drew some flourish with hand and embossed it with silver and the sentiment to finish it.


Supplies Used:








I hope you like the post.
Thanks for stopping by:)

Hugs

CARD INSPIRATION WITH MARTHA LUCIA

Hello crafty friends, Martha Lucia here to share with you a bunch of cards that I created using some of the products released this month. I love to combine stencils and die cuts in my creations and in today's card I used some of these.


My first card is following our Challenge of the month. As you may remember, this month we have a wonderful sketch to  recreate and I decided to use the Grid Stencil to create the background and the Scalloped Circle Die Cuts to create the Focal Point. Take a look at my card.



In this card I created the background with distress ink using the colors Ground Espresso, Abandoned Coral, Picked Raspberry and Spiced Marmalade and VersaFine Onix to stamp the sentiment from the stamp set Happy Birthday to All. To finalize the decoration I added some enamel dots from the Pastel and Smoky Quartz Collections.


My second card was created in Very Vanilla card stock accents in Peacock Metal Sheets. I cut the second layer using the larger die cut from the Dual Stitched Rounded Rectangle and pasted it directly over the base.


Then I cut and embossed a third layer using an embossing folder with leaves and pasted over the layer. I stamped the sentiment With Deepest Sympathy with VersaMark and Gold Embossing Powder and created a banner and paste over the embossed layer using dimensionals.


To finalize the decoration I cut the Dual Leaf die cuts using Peacock metal sheet and pasted it on the left side of the banner with a large pearl.

My third card has a base in Watermelon Wonder card stock and the next layers in very vanilla. I cut these layers using the new Scallop Rectangle Die Cuts. I pasted the border directly over the base and stamped the images over the center piece.


In this card I used one of the images included on the stamp set Indian Motif stamped in three different colors of ink: Watermelon Wonder, Daffodil Delight and Tip Top Taupe. I also edited one of the sentiments included on the stamp set Sympathy to create two lines that I stamped on the right corner.


I pasted this layer over the base using dimensionals and added some enamel dots from the Smoky Quartz Collection.

My last card was created using the Beaded Stencil with white craft ink and tangelo twist ink to create a special shadow.



I used a decorated paper on the lower part to create a diagonal angle. I covered the union with a tiny embossed white border and added the word Celebrate die cut to finalize the decoration.


As a final touch I added a cute white bow to complement the sentiment and party look.

These are the products that I used in my creations
