Tea cup with Happy Succulents!

Hello!

Happy weekend!

I made a slimline card using my envelope die! 

I featured a teacup with Happy succulents. The stamp set has a main succulent image with few additional succulents which make this set so versatile and fill the bigger space easily.

 

On a teacup, I stamped one of the single succulents with foliage using my ZIG brushes directly and watercolored it. Then stamped the bigger image using the same method, watercolored it and fussy cut it.

Now die cut another panel using stitched scalloped dies and stamped the image.  Then I slightly added DO with a blender brush to make my own background. The sentiment is from the Verve stamp set. Added some scattered polka dots with sparkle paste using my stencil.

Added my main panel on the card base. Added the die cup with dimension for more interest above the big succulent image.

Hope you like it!

Happy crafting!

Sunshine coffee cup

 Hello everyone!

Hello, coffee lovers!

Today is the first day of Spring/ Summer Coffee Lovers Hop 2021 hosted by the very talented Amy & team and I am so excited to participate! There are lots of super sponsor prizes, how awesome!

I am sharing a card featuring a negative die cutting technique using a Coffee time die cut set from Sizzix and stamps from Stamplorations.

I am thinking of a rising sun, bright morning with a spring feel. So I came up with this idea!

Who doesn't love coffee cup especially with sunshine on them!

I die cut the coffee cup at my focal point. And blended some DI to create a bright background in happy sunrise colours. Then stamped the great quote "even the darkest night will end and the SUN will rise." I love the New Beginning set with charming images and sweet inspiring sentiments.

On my white card base panel, I stamped the morning sunrise scene and watercoloured it using Zig watercolour brushes. Then highlighted the sunrise part only applying crystal Nuvo drops to glow more. Then adhered the blended piece on the card panel with foam tape.

Added a white lid on the coffee cup by stamping hello coffee. Die-cut some grasses and added these strips. Embellished it with some spring flowers and some crystal drops with few birds stamping to make this card pop.

I love this cute sunshine cup!

Happy crafting!
