My FIRST PROJECT -DIWALI Cards

#1.Its a normal A2 size card
#2. I did distressing using #PABD stencil with distress inks evergreen bough,scattered straw and peacock feathers...
#3. Took vellum paper 2'' * 6'' and did Diwali greeting... stamping using #PABD Stamp ( I wanted to use gold embossing powder ,but my heat gun not working and waiting for my new one)..
#4. Stamped the Indian Motif  using #PABD stamp with black Archival ink, on Rangers water color paper and then colored  using Zig real brush pens ..and did fussy cutting...
#5. Before layering my card I glued vellum piece on my top layer ....,sticking both sides at the back and in front,I glued in few places where I have used Indian motif and enamel dots...
#6. Then did layering with black CS and base fold card.
#7. Finally arranged my Indian motifs using foam dots.

My SECOND PROJECT- INTERLOCKING GATE FOLD MASCULINE  CARD

#1. In this card I have used 5.50'' *8.50'' CS and scored on long side at 2.25''from both sides..to get my gate fold card.
#2. I have used 2nd smaller size die from scalloped circle double stitched die for my interlocking mechanism. Stamped the sentiment in the center using #PABD stamp set
#3. Did layering with PP on one panel and embossing paper on other panel of gate fold... ,distressed with walnut stain and Black shoot. Both the panels layered with black CS.
#4. Used Gear Die cuts in black to decorate,on which I have used Inka Gold and used few black rhinestones

MY THIRD PROJECT- SYMPATHY CARD

When I started with this card , I was little confused ,that...which stamp image to use from my this months DT kit...as I prefers to use flowers with my sympathy cards...and I had flowers only in my little sparrow stamp set .....So finally I got idea to use only flower part from my birdie stamp set.

#1.I took 4.25''* 5.50'' size CS ( Kraft card stock). Stamped the sentiment at the bottom with black versifine black ink...using #PABD stamp set .
#2. Flowers I stamped twice on watercolor paper using #PABD stamp the Little Sparrow( masking the sparrow part) and colored it with Zig real brush pens ....did fussy cutting and used glossy accent and glitter rock candy.
#3. I have used scalloped circle white die cut using #PABD scalloped circle double stitched die .Arranged the flowers using foam dots and used few black rhinestones...
#4. To finish my card I did layering with black CS and then with white main fold base card...

Stencil mania by Swapna

Hi... Crafty folks...

Here I am with my first post for this month. We loved to see your active participation in our July challenge and  hope you all are playing along our challenge this month which is  colour inspiration.

Read the rules carefully before linking the project.

Use 3 or more colours from the inspiration picture and link in the challenge post. We would love to see your creations with Peek-a-boo designs for the challenge.

Now coming to my post for the day. I am sharing 3 cards with stencils which released last month. Tried to make Masculine cards which are hard to make (as people say) .

Card #1 - 

* I used BOX-tacular stencil. 

* I used few distress inks to blend. 

* I placed the stencil and blended orange shade colours first then off set the stencil to blend next set of colours. 

* Heat embossed the sentiment. Kept the background pretty simple.

Card #2

Men play the role of angel in our life. As father, as brother and as husband then why can't we give them an angle card?

* Its a double fold card.  

* I die cut a blue CS with the large stitched oval die and white CS with second largest stitched oval die. 

* I placed the white oval on regular card base and blended distress inks very lightly for subtle background. 

* Glued the smaller oval die cut on navy blue oval and glued it on open side of the card base. Stamped a fairy in black ink. 

* Die cut the word with white and heat embossed it with gold UTEE for more dimension, backed it with black diecut word and glued on the card front.

Card #3

Its a simple one layer card and sneak peek of my next post.

* I liked this stencil but i wanted only little portion of the stencil. 

* I selected the area i want on the card, placed it on card front and masked off the remaining area with masking tape/low tacky tape/washi tape. 

* Blended distress inks from darker green to yellow.

* Stamped the sentiment with grey ink so that it doesn't over power the leaves.

I hope you liked these cards..
