Lots of gold and some glitter - October Release Inspiration

Hello everyone! It's Juhi with my second post for October. My first card is a birthday card for my daughter who is turning 5 in December.

To created the watercolor background, I cut out the number dies on masking paper and stuck them randomly on watercolor paper, leaving some space in the middle for the number '5'.

I then painted the background in pink and orange Gansai Tambi watercolors.

I peeled off the digits once the watercolor dried, some paint did seep under the digits giving the background a beautiful watercolor wash effect! I finally cut out the '5' in gold and stuck it along with some gold thread and sequins and also heat embossed the sentiment in gold.

I hope my daughter likes the card :)

I followed exactly the same process to make the watercolor background of this Thank you card.

Don't you just love the gold against the turquoise? I just love how this one turned out!

I used my favorite "Border Frenzy" die from the month's release. I just can't get enough of this die.....love how it lets you add interest without extra bulk, perfect for CAS cards.

I created the background by stamping the broad stripes from the "It's Plaid Time" set in white followed by red inks. I then added the fancy stitches with the "Border Frenzy" die.
For the glitter heart I used the "Shaker Love" Die.

Well that's it from me for now, I hope you find inspiration in my projects! Thank you so much for stopping by today.

Cards using October release

Hello Friends Pooja here with second batch of inspirations for this month. I have gone soft and subtle with first card.The background is created using beaded Stencil and layered stitched bubble die-cut over it.

 The butterflies are from Doodled Butterfly set and so is the sentiment.

For my next card I used the negative of fern flourish die (By now you must have known I love using negative of die-cuts more than the positives).

 Its a clear shaker card. I have stitched two acetate sheets together with some sequins sandwiched between them. You can see some the sequins inside the ferns in this picture

Third and the final card for October is simplest.Created the texture by applying texture paste through abstract triangles stencil.

I wanted all the focus to be on fern die-cut so kept the design very clean.The sentiment is from Stringy text set.

I hope you enjoyed the post and loved my cards .

Hi.. Crafty friends...

Here I am with my second DT post. To be frank I really struggled and liked the process of these 3 cards. At the end I am pretty happy with my cards.

I hope you are playing along with our October challenge which is a recipe. Please do read Guidelines carefully before linking your project.

Card #1
** First card is inspiration for our october challenge.
** I masked the card base (1"around the card base), placed the stencil diagonally on the base and secured with masking tape.
** I mixed candid apple distress ink with texture paste, applied it through stencil. Left it dry on its own.
** Die cut the scalloped frame (bigger) with same CS, few vellum fern flourishes and one white fern flourish.
** I double heat embossed the CS fern flourish with gold embossing powder to give it dimension. Die cut few Thank you, adhered them together and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
** To assemble the card, I foam mounted the frame on card base around the stencilled area. I put silver embroidery floss on top of which glued ferns. Added the sentiment.

Here is a close up of die cut embellishments, just love this texture of white embossing powder.

Card #2

** This was real fun to make. I just kept die cutting stitched bubble die.
** Used distress inks in blue range to blend over them.
** I stamped the image towards bottom and coloured with Staedler water colour pencils.
** Stamped sentiment with black ink.
** Used stitched rectangle die to die cut these panels.
** I glued these panels with liquid glue leaving little space in between.

Here is a closer look of die cut 

Card #3

** This is water colour card. I stamped the flourish image with versa mark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
** Used zig markers to colour flowers and leaves.
** Die cut the panel and foam mounted it on a grey CS.
** For sentiment, I die cut 2 times with grey CS and once with water colour paper.
** I used Zig marker to add shade to the die cut sentiment.
** Added few sequins.

Possibilities of PABD stamps!

Hello All,

Ria this side. Today I have brought some mix and matches of many products and projects that I have made with PABD stamps. But first I would start with a card.

FIRST PROJECT:

When I had designed the Floral Bloom, I had this picture in my mind to frame it in a CAS style. I hope I have been able to! With the no-line coloring technique I have colored the elements. I did not stamped the whole image and added some loose florals and leaves to it. The die cut happy has been arranged with the birthday from the Alpha Banner stampset.

SECOND PROJECT:

Now I thought to make something for the coffee and tea lovers! You are wondering what it could be... Let me show that to you

I have made few coasters where I have used the stencils available at PABD and the Alpha banner stamp set and yes you guessed it right- my handwritten sentiments. 

Here, the background only has been done with the stencil. 

Colors used here are acrylic colors.

Supplies used:

I hope you have liked the projects.

Hugs 

Ria
