CARD MAKING DETAILS

This card measures 5x4 which is smaller than the regular card size. Some how I like this sized cards because the images fit perfectly and I think it's kind of cosy! You know what I mean!? :) I trimmed another panel smaller than the main card base and applied Camlin Water Colors (these are school water colors but they are so richly pigmented) in Pink to the panel, in a gradient manner and let it dry for sometime. I like adding splatters of paints so I went ahead and added splatters of black paint with a paint brush.

I die-cut the giraffes out of white card stock and water colored them with Yellow color. I placed the layer die-cut over the giraffes, die-cut it, layered it with black card stock behind. I adhered them with glue and stamped the sentiment from Altenew in CP Designs Midnight Ink. 

I also added details on face with black permanent marker (love those sweet faces) and foam mounted it on top of the main card base. Also embellished it few sequins from Mudra.

HELLO CARD | SIZZIX LIFESTYLE

Hello everyone! How are you doing? I hope you guys are doing fine! :) I'm here with a Clean and Simple Hello Card made for Sizzix Lifestyle and also this card was made for a couple of challenges which I love the most! I used the gorgeous Paint Splats and Sentiments dies from Sizzix Lifestyle. Look at that sentiment! Oh! I'm so in love with it! :)

I started by watercoloring the card stock with grey and black water colors and let the panel dry for sometime! 

Then I ran all the dies through the Big Shot Plus Machine and adhered it over the main card base. Oh! How I love that glittery 'hello' :D

Finally I embellished the card with a few clear sequins from Mudra. I would like to enter this card for the following challenges CASology Week 283: GLIMMER and Simon Says: Add A Sentiment.

I hope you like the card, thanks for visiting! :)

COFFEE STAINED CARD | SIZZIX LIFESTYLE | VIDEO

Recently I've learned how to stain papers. I'm loving that old and vintagy look lately. So I went into my kitchen, brew some Coffee Decoction and stored into a plastic cup. It's easy to apply the decoction to your projects with a paint brush or sponge brush.

Products from Sizzix.co.uk

• Bigshot Express Machine
• Songbird Thinlit Die

I applied decoction to the projects and sped up the drying process with a heat it tool. I applied second coat to the songbird die-cut for some rustic look. I actually feel that it looks like wood veneer, right?

Next I adhered the papers with Tacky Glue and popped up the die-cut with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment from Mudra in Versafine Sepia Ink and finished the card with a few golden sequins from Mudra.

And that is the card for today and I hope you like it. I have also made a video for you, Enjoy! :)

Sizzix Lifestyle | Little Robin | Video

This Little Robin is one of the cutest dies from Sizzix Lifestyle Chapter 3 release. When I first saw this thinlit I knew that I am going to make a Christmas Card. I thought the Holiday Greens thinlits by Timholtz would match perfectly to Little Robin and yes! they sure did! I really like the bright contrast colors on my projects, it's all depends on my mood! ;)

I started by running Canson Montval Water Color Paper and thinlit dies through the Bigshot Express Machine. Then I water colored the die-cut using Camlin Brush Pens. 

Then I cut brown card stock exactly the same of the main card base and adhered all the die-cuts as shown above. 

To mimic the snow I added droplets of Picket Fence Distress Paint Dauber. 

And finished my card by stamping the sentiment in white ink and dusted off with Perfect Pearls.

I have filmed a video, you can watch it here or at my YouTube Channel. Enjoy!

The above card was inspired by one of previous makes!

I have a video for this one also! Enjoy!

Thank you so much for stopping by. See you soon! :)
