Flower pots!

Hello everyone! Happy Monday! Do you love pink succulents? Yep! In my world actually they are not succulents, they are just flowers in pink. Imagination has no end at all, right!

Ink smooshing is one of my favourite go to techniques these days! It is not only very easy but the results are awesome with beautiful backgrounds. I'm loving these color combo - pink and black, lately and you may see a few projects with these colors in future! And the touch of brown to this color palette is really good! what do you think?

I have added a strip of pattern paper from Studio Calico along with pink paper tape! After that I stamped the pots and flowers from Stuck on You stamp set on another piece of cardstock by slightly removing the ink from the edges with a tissue paper just to add some dimension and interest to the images. Finally adhered them with foam tape and glue. Without glitter and ink splatters my card is just incomplete ;) so I went ahead and did that! Finally stamped the sentiment with Archival Jet black ink.

And that's it. I hope you like it. I'm entering this card for Lawnscaping Challenge: Beautiful Florals. and CAS on Sunday Challenge #80 Flowers

Thank you so much for stopping by. Take care and I will see you soon :)

Happy News + Giveaway! (closed now)

Edited - Winner announced here

Hello everyone! I'm so excited to share some happy news with you all. You guys know how much I love doodling. I had the idea of taking it to next level but I don't know any basics in business management or about the products or manufacturers and etc! I thought the idea of designing my own stamp line would go in vain but I always had some hope like I can do this, may be this not the right time - everything has got it's own time and there is a right time for everything! so I thought that way and kept continuing and focusing on my work! :)

One day - I happened to share my doodles on Facebook and Instgram, then I got a message from Vidushi, owner of Peek-a-boo designs asking me to design a few stamps for her stamp company. I was like 'aww! and right away I said Yes! :) She is very supportive and sweet. Thank you so much Vidushi for having faith in me and for giving me this wonderful opportunity! :)

I designed these stamps called 'Chirping Away' and 'Sheepy Friendship' for their April release and you can buy these stamps here. To be honest, still I need to focus a lot on my drawing skills!

And here are the cards I made using these stamps! I thought of making more cards but I didn't find time to make more! But you'll see me using these stamps more often! :p

I used Sheepy Friendship stamp set to make my card.. 

I simply stamped the sheep and flower pot, masked off and inked up the lower portion with Antique Lenin distress ink and the top portion  with Broken China distress ink :)

And here is the second one made using Chirping Away stamp set.

First, I inked up the background with Neon green ink from Tsukineko with a sponge dauber. Then stamped the fence twice, you get a bigger fence like this with masking! and colored it with Vintage Photo distress ink. Then stamped the flowers and colored them using neon inks Tsukineko! Fussy cut and adhered everything together! And that's it!!
