TO FINALIZE SOMETHING SWEET

Hello dear friends, Martha Lucia here. I chose something sweet to finalize the year and said thank you for share with me. 

I love techniques and embossing is one of my favorites. Today I created embossing with die cuts on my first card. Take a look at my card:

  To create this card I used Whisper White card stock, the Dual Stitched Rounded Rectangle and the stamp sets Poppies Bunch and Friends Forever

1. Stamp the Poppies Bunch using Versamark and Gold Embossing Powder.
2. Stamp the sentiment from the stamp set Friends Forever.
3. Apply Distress Ink over the stamped images using a bending tool. I used the Cracked Pistachio color.
4. Take the small stitched rectangle and place over the card stock just like if you were to cut
5. Replace the lower cutting plate in your big shot for a rubber mat. The correct sandwich will be: acrylic pad - rubber mat - card stock - die cut - acrylic pad.
6. Pass your sandwich for the big shot
7. Finalize your decoration adding some enamel dots or sequins.

For my next project I used an Embossing Folder to have a Dry Embossing and images from the stamp set Flower in a Jar

The base of my card is Crumb Cake and I made a Dry Embossing over a Very Vanilla card stock layer. Then using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink I stamped the tulip image over some of the frames of the background and colored the flowers with Copic Markers. The sentiment is from the same stamp set, the Flower in a Jar

With a few elements you can create a great compositions and embossing technique always offered hundreds of possibilities that you can apply easily. I hope my projects inspired you and come back soon!

Enjoy the Season

Hello all,

Today I have brought few cards that I have done in a very less amount of time. As the holiday season has set in so why not celebrate the season with a quick set of cards!

CARD 1

For this, I have used the Its Plaid time stamp set to create the lines and embossed them with white and gold. The numbers are hand written and embossed, you can use our numbers die which is the perfect to use for these cards. The sentiment is from the Happy Birthday to you set. 

CARD 2

I blended red and green colors through a stencil made from the Lattice die. I sprinkled some mist over it and then blended Gold pearl powder. The top of the CS is done with a pigment ink pad from Versacolor mini cubes as I always love the effect. I completed the card with a hand written sentiment and few embellishments.

CARD 3

This card I made for a special purpose for a little girl. I have used the image designed by Neha Tulsyn, such a pretty design. I have coupled the design with the little birdies from Alpha Banner stamp.

Supplies used:

I hope you have liked the projects. And Do not forget to participate in the current challenge that is going for the two months CHALLENGE #12 - COLOR INSPIRATION

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.

Hi PABD fans! Today me Nadiya Bilovodenko is here on the fabulous Peek-a-boo Designs  blog with my inspirations projects! and today I did two projects for you. Christmas calling!!! you hear it? The air is already hovering flavor of New Year holidays,  here in Ukraine. I came with some more inspiration for challenge #12 which is a color challenge.
I do a lot of cards to my friends and relatives. Who said, that PABD No Christmas stamps? Let's look together!

 If you have a set of stamps Solid Shapes , can feel free assume that the New Year you have come!

 I took a star stamp on paper pastel purple made embosing white powder, then cut along the contour.

 Background I've done with the help of structural paste and stencil bubbles.

 Then I painted the background with a conventional art of watercolor.

 Who said that our palette can not be the New Year! It may be, let me assure you!

My cards look almost the twins!

I wish each of you good mood and wonderful holidays, regardless of our religion, and faith! Holidays and New Year, it wonders, let us believe in miracles!
