There's always time for tea!

Hello to all!

Happy Friday!

I am so excited as the fun has already begun at Winter Fall / Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop 2021 hosted by Talented Amy and the team!

Each morning I started my day with a cup of ginger masala tea. I love waking up in the morning and sitting down with a hot cup of tea before beginning my day!

When I saw this stamp set from Uniko I recently added ut into my stash. My mind started imagining all the possibilities with this set and couldn't wait to use it!

This is the first card that I made for this coffee lovers hop. I love the colors and artistic look I used on this card.

I made different patterns on my cups. I started by stamping the three-cup in all and heat embossing using opaque bright white EP. Fussy cut them all On the first one I added some DO ink and added some pattern with a sentiment, heat embossed in metallic gold.

On the second cup I applied some acrylic chalk paints with my palette knife and added a heat embossed heart in white.

And on the third one, I applied some DO ink and added some splatters using a stencil.

Now on my focal panel I slightly added some stripes in very fade pink ink.

And added that panel to my card base adhered all the stacks of cups with dimension.

I stacked the cups. added some hearts and finished off with placing a die-cut border before placing the cups.

I think it's time for another cuppa tea. I will be posting a couple more cards from this set in the next few days.

I am hoping these artistic cups have cool look and brighten your day and inspire your creativity today!

Happy crafting!

Merry and Bright

Hello to all!

First I die cut the Centre Burst die out of black CS and used the outline part as a stencil. I placed this stencil on my glossy white sheet. Created a distressed ink background in pink hues by squirting victorian velvet and pink raspberry inks onto my craft sheet and blending them. Then added some water droplets.

After drying added some white splatters.

 I once again die cut my center burst die out of raspberry pink glitter sheet. 

 Placed that outlined piece dies on my stencilled background as shown in the pic. Cut the extra part outside of the panel.

Added that panel to white CS base.

The sentiment is so perfect for the Christmassy feel on it! 

The glitter outlined die .........really made the sun rays sparkle. In the end, tied up a twine around my white panel with a bow. And added some Embellishments.

Happy crafting!

Autumn blessings!

 Hello to all!

Happy Saturday!

It's that wonderful time of the month. Trees, branches, leaves are beginning to change!

Today I have an autumn card to share with you all. I had so much fun using these fall leaves! I created an autumn glass jar containing full of different autumn leaf shapes and colours.

http://pixiescraftyworkshop.blogspot.com/2021/09/pixies-snippets-playground-challenge_01526649633.html

 Firstly I die cut a jar out of a vellum sheet and coloured it with my Copic markers from the backside and added some white dots using a white gel pen.

I die cut all leaves, foliage and coloured them with a variety of  ZIG water brushes.

Die-cut an umbrella too and watercoloured it. My card base is midnight blue on which I added an angled banner at the bottom in white with an autumn blessing sentiment in blue.

I arranged all the fall leaves and foliage in the jar, varying the leaf shape and colour. I clicked the photo before arranging them on my jar for a record.

Here is the finished card with some platinum splatters and added clear droplets and glossy accents to berries.

A closeup view: 

Hope you enjoyed this project in rich fall colours in the air and can enjoy the beauty of this season!

Happy crafting!
