Wedding anniversary card with a gift bag

Hi everyone!
It's finally time to share the project I have been working on for two days . It's a wedding card with a gift bag for my parent's anniversary on 29th Jan.

This is a gatefold fancy card. A smiling cute bear holding a cake - I think it is perfect for the card. This is a free digi image from coloriage-anniversaire.com and coloured in promarkers and sakura glittered pens and embossed the edges with versa glitter powder. My card base is a golden CS and I added a soft cream color CS panel on it . I attached a glittered handmade paper in a gatefold style and added a stand too. On the inside panel I used a flower stencil(new) on the background and stamped with Versa color ultimate pigment ink. Then a free sentiment from apieceofheart.blog is adhered on it and edged with golden glitter pen and daubered with versa stamp. The flowers are handmade using Spellbinder nestabilities diecut and glittered and attached on a metal wire wrapped with green paper tape. Some embellishments used are - golden ribbon, bow with a rose, shiny butterfly, crystal button flower and pearls which are giving an elegant look to the card.
Here are some close ups:

I have created a gift bag to match with this card. A tag is attached to its handle with a ribbon. Matching stamped background on the tag with a little butterfly attached on it and a free sentiment from desert diva on it. Hand bag is embellished with matching flowers, heart punch and die cutout , crystal flower button, ribbon and a lace to finished it off.

And here is everything together:

Girl in pink

Hi there!
I love to share my latest creation in which I used Magnolia stamp for the very first time. I really love this Tilda......maybe it's the sweet, soft, vintage look,and the girlish style of it!

Firstly ,I embossed white ivory CS using Itsy Bitsy rose and heart folder (new). Then I used light brown dry chalked in the background and gave a shading effect to the roses and leaves using chalk again....love the result and the look it gave:). Then I used EK Success scalloped border punch at the bottom and hand stitched with brown thread chain. Here are the close-ups:

Then, I coloured lovely Tilda with promarkers and i love how it came about. White CS is the base, red CS is the second layer, SOFT pink is the third layer, Bo Bunny Double Dot Designs paper(double scalloped border) and the PP (my friend gifted me) is the last one. I matted and popped up Tilda. Sentiment is hand written by me and I added a little sparkle with Sakura glitter pen to it.. There are lovely embellishments such as flowers, rhinestones, soft pink coloured ribbon and artificial coloured grass. At last , I attached a corner using a charm with twine bow to finish off this card.

Little darling

Hello!
I decided to go monochrome this time and follow a sketch from: Seems a little sketchy.
This lovely girly card features a very sweet Stampendous Boots Kiddo girl stamp which I have coloured with promarkers and added a touch of Sakura glittered pens in her dress, shoes and hair. She is carrying a newly purchased handbag which I have added a price tag to make it more realistic.

Beauty of nature

Hi everyone!
When I saw a challenge on Crafty Boots (Sunshine). I started to think about the theme and wanted to give a very different look to the card using lots of yellow and a version of the sun.

You have my Heart

Hi! Happy Monday to you all.
Yes, yes, yes! Another valentine card and this time I used soft and cool colours. I chose pink and purple as I love how these two colours look together. I'm using this image again because it is so cute and sweet. I coloured it with promarkers and glittered the shoes and girl's dress.

     I stamped the background of white ivory CS using the Kaisercraft OF169 clear stamp using versa colours which is a new addition to my stock.
     I mounted the focal panel on glittering pattern vellum sheet which is giving a soothing effect . And finished off with some flower embellishments, gems, a stunning lace, fauxed ribbon, a cute button with a smile, and a cute heart shape rhinestone.

Romantic heart card

Hello everyone!
While visiting Fred She Said (heart with roses card) I got an idea because I was very impressed by this card project. And I just love how it turned out!!!

For my card I used a free heart digi image. And embossed it and coloured the flowers garland with promarkers, Japanese water brushes (which is my favourite) and Sakura golden gel pen. Then I layered it on the pink heart and applied Metallic satin rose colour (from Encore) to the pink heart edges.
The base is dark pink CS on which I layered floral PP from my stash. Further more, I punched out some hearts and stamped LOVE with clear stamps. Some of the embellishments I used are swirls from Couture Creations (New die cut I used), pearls. Also a die cut used for flowers from Itsy Bitsy Thin cuts Rangoli Art Die and not to forget I added a few rhinestones for the finishing touch.

Have a look at the inside view:

Baby Giraffe

Hello friends!
I made a card using a cute character (giraffe) which is hand drawn. I arranged giraffe patterned paper pieces to the sketch and coloured in the dots with promarkers. I added a little piece of scarf around its neck.

I used Spellbinder Just Swingin' die cut for the tree. I paired the tree with Marianne creatables lr0226 and coloured the leaves and trees with promarkers.
I stamped the ground area of white CS with my New WE R Memory Keepers Autumn Flowers set. Then I adhered the giraffe image to the focal panel and popped it up. The second panel edges of turquoise CS was embossed by Versa super fine silver glitter.

I layered various card elements. The brown pattern paper I used was a new addition to my stash.The sentiment is from Porta Craft sticker.
I added a ribbon bow with a rose onto the first panel of the card and a few pearls for finishing touch.

Inside view: The sentiment is a free Image and coloured with promarkers and Sakura gel pen.

Clean and simple

Hi there!
Today, this card was inspired by the beautiful sketch at http://2sketches4you.blogspot.in/ and I wanted to give the http://casethissketch.blogspot.in/ current challenge a try along with http://cas-ualfridays.blogspot.in/ in a word.

It is a clean and simple card. This card is a combination of poster paint, chalk effect, my own wooden stamping and a handwritten sentiment. A butterfly, rose flower and a ribbon to finish it off.

Flower Power

Hello!
I made up 8.5X8.5" square card. I used an adorable image as a freebie and thought it would make a cute card because Valentine's day is approaching. I coloured the image with promarkers. I have sparkled the cup edges with Sakura Glittered pen. I gently applied shades of pink with chalk set from Scrappin Gear around the hearts.

I placed some heart beads in the centre and placed an acetate sheet on it and covered it with the leftover purple glittered sheet. Now this has also become my first shaker card.
I popped up the image onto a 4.5X4.5" pink CS. Then I added a ribbon On the top layer. The sentiment is a sticker from Porta Craft which I layered on Spellbinder die cut tag.
The purple CS is embossed with a folder from Itsy Bitsy and I adhered both these panel on the main peach CS. The Purple glittered sheet lace border is a die cut from Spellbinder Shapeabilities Asian Accents. I added bits n pieces of scallop border as a banner.
I really wanted a wow effect so I added a sparkle flower charm, beads, blings and rhinestones as a flourish.
