Here is my take for this challenge. I've made a greeting card. I've used my own designed stamp 'Floral Zen' from January release. :) Super happy to use my designed one for this first challenge of year 2018!! :)

Here it is...

It's a One Layer Card and I've chosen pink cardstock for that. I first stamped this floral in the middle of my cardstock then heat embossed with gold. I stamped and heat embossed again this image partly here n there for completing my background. Water colored them using Zig Markers. Used my color pencils for giving it a finishing touch. 

Here are some closeups..

I've created a video too about all the coloring of this card. Here it is...

Here is the pic of my designed stamp set which I've used for creating this card..

Ruchi's Crafeteria-Tutorial - Note Cards with Card Holder!

Hey There..!

This is Ruchi from Ruchi's Crafeteria..! 

Today I'm sharing an article about some Note Cards with a Card Holder which I've created using PABD ( Peek-a-Boo Designs ) new release. You can check all the new products HERE & HERE

Here is the pic of my project...

Christmas is all around so I chose some Christmas colors for my project. I have step by step procedure and one fun video too. But before that enjoy all the pics..

This cute green button is from my stash and that maroon circle behind the button has created using Circle Die form PABD. 

These Note Cards are 3"x3" in size. Used CS, PPs, embellishments, washi tape n many more materials for creating them. :) 

Here are individual pic of all three note cards..

I've used PABD- Colorful Polka washi tape in the first note card and sentiment is from PABD- Veined Daisy stamp set. In the second green card, created my own background using big n small leaves from PABD- Pretty Roses stamp set along with Memento inks. Sentiment is from same stamp set and heat embossed in white. In the third card used pattern paper and added this sequin flower. Sentiment is heat embossed in gold n again from PABD- Pretty Roses stamp set.

A close up pic of this flower which is from PABD- Pretty Roses stamp set. Colored it using Altenew Markers and added that shine using Wink of Stella. 

And now it's tutorial time! Here are the pics of all step by step procedure. I'm explaining all the steps too with every pic..

Step 1- Take a cardstock measuring  8"x7-1/4" I've chosen Neenah Bright White cardstock.

Step 2- Score at 2" n 4" using your score board at the length of 8"

 Step 3- Score at 2" at the length of 7-1/4" and flip the Cardstock and again score at 2"

 Step 4- Now make a mark at 2" on the top of the cardstock both the sides and make mark diagonally.

Step 5- Cut those mark lines and make 2" mark on the both side of your score lines horizontally. You have to make total 4 marks and cut it out.

 Step 6- Look at the pic. It's all about the mesurements for decorating your Card Holder. First 2 pieces are for sides. Third piece measuring 1-3/4"x3" is for yor card holder base and the last big piece is for  inside decoration.

Step 7- Take your choice of Cardstock measuring 3"x3" for your Note Cards and PPs are in 2-3/4" x 2-3/4" in size.

Now enjoy the video which is all about craeting and assembling this project. You can check the video HERE
