This is my one layered creation! I stamped some stripes using my Misty(an easiest job now) and heat embossed in them gold! Using ink smoosh technique I die cut a sentiment out of 1mm chipboard. I heat embossed a cat image die cut in gold 2 times, isn't she looking glamorous!!! Thanks to KTFitKitty for sending this amazing gift and the very right time to use it! 
Before adhering all the die cuts, I splattered some tiny dots for the background and heat embossed these tiny hearts in gold again 3 times. I adhered all these die cuts using pop dots and glossy accent the cat eyes.

Make a wish!

Hello everyone!
I am back again with a cute creation! I have created a night scene with a wish! Recently I won a Lawn Fawn GC and purchased some more new products in my crafty stash and I totally love their Puffy Cloud Borders, so many ideas in my mind! Special Thanks to Amy for this GC and Lawn Fawn too!
I don't have any cat stamps, but a large puffy sticker in my stash and I thought it's perfect for this Cat Lovers Blog Hop!
 I used all three puffy cloud borders to create this night scene and layered them to create some magical wish! There is a secret too!!! I have some tiger print papers in my stash and I combined them with a special small circle print shining paper in silver and blue, a perfect match!
I created a speech cloud bubble out of mirror sheet and vellum too and heat embossed some shiny stars from Lawn Fawn! And heat embossed the wish sentiment in black!
Now I wanted to show you the secret! There is a metal tag hiding behind the clouds to fulfill the wish of this sweet cat, here it is!
I hope you all enjoy this creation and now my favorite one too!

Supplies used:
Snippets of silver and blue colored Mirror papers; Snippets of tiger print backing papers in three colors; Silver and blue colored backing paper, White CS for the base
Lawn Fawn Puffy cloud borders and sentiment & stars from critter ever after stamp set

Cat Lovers Hop- Finger puppets

Hello everyone!
Today is a National Cat Day! And I am very excited to participate in Cat Lovers Hop  and  Janis has organized the hop to celebrate this wonderful day at Her Peaceful Garden. Tomorrow is the last day to participate. I don't have any pet animals, but I love them! This time I didn't make a card, I created finger puppets out of felt! I named my cat as Poosy and for a lion Prince!
  
To create them, I drew their shape on grey and yellow felt two times for front and back and then added ears, tail and stitched them leaving the bottom side open. Then I attached their legs. For the cat face, I glued eyes, nose and whiskers and for lion I glued a brown coloured felt hair around his face.
Isn't it a cool technique to make cute finger puppets and we can create a whole story of our own for dramatisation too! I used this technique many times when I was a teacher and my Kindergarten tiny tots really enjoyed the stories very much while dramatising through finger puppets!
Hope you like my different creation!

I would like to join in these challenges:

Pinterest Inspired

Hello everybody!
Today I want to show my new creation!
I got my inspiration from Pinterest Inspired challenge! I love the graphics, colors and design and blue is my fave color too!

And here is my interpretation;
 I used the stamps and scripted hello from WPlus 9; the die cut leaves and edged speech bubble from Die-namics ; stitched borders from Lawn Fawn and the white enamel drops are from We R Memory Keepers!
I started by creating my spring flowers to make my own background: first I used distress inks and spritz it with water before stamping to give it a watercolor look.  I played first time with my new Misti tool here! I opted the color combo of blues and black. Then I blended the edges with my wet brush. Then stamped those leaves and tiny buds and used second generation stamping technique.
I adhered a stitched speech bubble on the top with dimensional adhesive. Then die cut a hello sentiment 3 times and glued them for dimension.
Then die cut some leaves on the snippet of some transparent sheet and rounded them using my round puncher to match them with my stamped leaves!
I love the final look, isn't it!

Other supplies used;
Snippets of Turquoise and whisper white CS
Tumbled glass and mermaid lagoon Distress inks and Grey to black Ombre ink pad from Hero arts
Spring Blooms stamp set from WPlus9

I would like to enter my creation in few more challenges:

I am always here with you!

Hello Everyone!
I am invited to join as a Guest Designer this fortnight after being chosen as a winner from challenge No.36! I am feeling so honored, Thanks to Mrs, A! She asked me to choose a letter and I have chosen Letter E and the new challenge started today over at Mrs.A Butterfly challenge!#40 Butterflies + E is for Embossing.

Today I am showing a card using purple color scheme, so I can support Becca's The Hop to Stop, a blog hop designed to raise awareness about domestic violence.
Check it out!
        Domestic violence thrives when we are silent; but if we take a stand and work together, we can end domestic violence. Throughout the month of October to raise awareness about domestic violence, Please join in our efforts to end domestic violence. 

       Wouldn't it be so awesome if we can bring a smile to the faces & brighten the life of all who are victim of Domestic violence, simply by sharing our love of card making! A simple gesture to let them know that they are not forgotten and important to the society!
        My submission has a phrase, "I am here always with you“. In a world with so many uncertainties and sufferings. I wanted my little piece of inspiration as a reminder that one should never lost hope what so ever is the adverse situations in once life It’s important to come together as a World community to help build strong foundations for all where ever as anyone is in state of exploitation and distress. We are always better when we work together and caring for each other! With every new dawning of the sun, fresh blooms, bird songs and the transformation of the caterpillar into the butterfly, and birth of new life !!!
Here is my creation:

 This card begins with a snippet of white panel and using my violet color bursts on it and reacted it with my water mist and  embossed my panel with embossing folder. This is a product that knocked my socks off!!! It's so fun to watch them react when they come in contact with water:). Then I raised my embossing panel using distress scrubber for more dimensions.  I added the panel to a Pearlscent purple colored CS frame.

 Next I used up a snippet of vellum and stamped the sentiment using Versamark and heat embossed it for some shine and dimensions. Then I created a designer frame out of two different sheets and adhered it to highlight this beautiful sentiment. 
 
Using emboss resist technique, I stamped and heat embossed the butterflies and using color burst and mist it and let them flutter by! I added a cute tiny heart from Lawn fawn and glossy accent it as an embellishment!!
I really wanted the sentiment to be the focal point and the challenge colors complimented the scene perfectly. 

Supplies used:
Snippets of Pearlscent CS, White CS, glitter sheet and a vellum sheet
Wow embossing powders-Opaque bright white and Magical mauve glitter 
Color burst-Violet
WeR Memory Keepers Distress tool

Ahh Nuts!

Hello Everyone!
 My creation is based on sugarsketch-30 !
Recently I won this cutest stamp set"Nuts about you" from Sugar Pea Designs(Thanks you so much Wendy:)!!!! Yesterday I received it in my mail box and I was so excited that I created it for World Card Making Day, inspired with Fall season!
To create this card, I first applied Distress ink on a white CS. The little scene was made by stamping the objects, character, colored them, fussy cut them all, put glossy accents in this cutest squirrel eyes for shine and on a nut too!
I don't have any tree die cut, so I got an idea, I have used my Swingin' die and trimmed it according to my need, embossed it, distressed it, Isn't it great, perfect for this scene!!! Then adhered all the pieces on this main panel, added a burlap grass border and popped up the main image for 3D look! Then I mounted it to a card base with some cloud print PP according to the sketch. Cut a fish tail banner and stamped the sentiment in black.
A closer View:

Coffee Pillow Box in fall colors

Hello everyone!
                       October is a month of festivals all over world in different ways!!! In India, Festivals take a significant turn in the month of October. The season October ushers in a season of festivities that is both religious and social in nature marked by fun enthusiasm and celebrations! Our main festival is Dushera, a Hindu festival!
And now, I am back again with one more creation for the Fall Coffee Lover's Blog hop 

Guys, I played again with my new goodies- the pillow box and so much love in!!!  It is featuring Reverse Confetti sentiment and fiskars image with a surprise and I am glad that Reverse Confetti is one of the sponsor! Here is my creation:
Look at the gorgeous designer paper, isn't it awesome with gold foil printing with textures! On a textured white CS, I played  with some alcohol inks and stamped the coffee cup, fussy cut it and embellished it! The steams are embossed with my new Gold Satin Pearl Regular Powder{which I won as a prize from Wow challenge blog}! I cut those beautiful textured leaves out of a heavy gold CS, great textures on the gold. The flower is handmade and added gold alcohol ink at the edges of this tiny flower using Botanical wings set.
A closer view:.
That stitched circle border in golden is created from Stitched scallop edges. I placed all the things using pop dots, then die cut 'enjoy' letters from an adhesive glitter sheet and added them on that border.
Now for a surprise:
There is a gift for my friend! I attached the leftover border at the top of the pack. I die cut a pierced circle from same DP and overlay with another die cut vellum circle and stamped a scalloped circle in golden, burnish it with perfect gold pearl using a brush and embossed a sentiment with the same powder. And embellished with a leaf charm
Another view:
       Look at the sentiment, love the results,  how gracefully it matched with my DP! And I am very much inspired by Sandy Allnock!!! She is creating 7 days class on Gold creations!
Hope you enjoyed my coffee themed pillow box creation!

Supplies used:
Snippet of DP, texture sheet, golden paper and brown colored adhesive sheet are from my stash, Vellum sheet from Itsy Bitsy
