Too good to be forgotten!

Hello crafty peeps!

Happy Thursday!

Hoping you all are enjoying your day!

Today I showcased a cute card which is focusing on a sentiment using numbers!

I am inspired by I Love Math Challenge #8 hosting by very talented Crafty Milka! The theme is to use "Numbers". Here is my take on the challenge:

I started with a Inverted scallop rectangle frame die cut in black. In inner piece I roughly drew a grid using a pencil lightly. Stamped the cross stitch hearts using my Misti. First I heat embossed only the pastel pink hearts and then again stamped the rest of the hearts in opaque bright white embossing powders. And Yes don't forget to rub those lines! It is clear in this close up pic below:

Die cut a scallop stitched frame and stamp the sentiment in frost white chalk ink. Then the numbers in the stamped are highlighted with my white gel pen.

I added a doily to create more interest and focused on the sentiment with a pink stripe.

Added a tiny heart with arrow and a bow.

Hope you enjoyed today's project!

Here are the making steps

• Using my Misti I stamped the image in jet Black Archival ink on a Bielo white CS. Watercolored the image with Zig brush colors in a  monochromatic look.

Hello everyone!

I love this time of year because I love to make Valentine cards. Love is definitely in the air and It should be all 365 days in a year:) Lol

I am back and in love with the new fun BEEP-BEEP stamp set featuring some really cute Robot super cool images and sayings offering plenty of ways to use them for different occasions. 

Important: Picked in Top 3 Category here: http://blog.emeraldcreek.org/2018/03/easter-fun-kim-21-to-40.html

A mixed media style Valentine robotic theme revives my inner geek and just make me smile. 
Can I just say I love this set!!!! The images are soooo cute for words if you ask me!!! 

Both of the robots and a cute tiny love bulb are stamped in Jet Black archival ink. For coloring I used Shimmer Paints Creamy Cantalope and Baby blush and mixed it with my Zig markers color brushes and fussy cut them. Love the shimmery touch on these cuties, visible so clearly, A close up pic:

To create my background using Hearts stencil I applied texture paste and gave it a touch of  Baby blush pearl shimmer mixing with slight water randomly and at the edges too.

Added some Liquid glossy accents to the love perimeter, eyes and heart to finish the front of the images.

I added a love bottle fully loaded with different glitters, sequins and hearts and tied it with a love bulb image. Placed a tulle net in pink at the bottom of the card panel and adhered it with my mulberry flowers and pollen flowers. I slightly applied the baby blush shimmer at the edges of rose flower petals too.

I added the sentiment on a black strips and heat embossed them in opaque bright white embossing powder and highlighted the word Glow with Magenta twinkle glitter embossing. To create more interest added some die cut gears in different shapes and colors and bling the centers too.

 One more final pic:



Hope you enjoyed this robotic love!

Valentine card with an announcement!

Hello friends!
Happy Friday!

Today, I'm popping in to share a love themed shaker card that would be perfect for Valentine's day. And I am so glad to announce here that I will work now for Craftyscrappers Design Team!!!!

So here is my card with cute Robotic images! I hope you enjoy it!



I used some robotic images from the Beep - beep stamp set and watercolored with my Steadtler pencils, fussy cut them. I do think the image and sentiment say it all so it ended up being a clean and simple shaker card. 
I added a thin strip which is stenciled in different dye colors using Rays stencil as shown in the pic. 



I die cut the the inverted scallop rectangles out of white foam sheet 3 times to move my shaker elements properly!



The sentiment is heat embossed on a blue strip. Added a few googly eyes, some clear tiny sparkle dots, a bred heart sequin, ringlets sequins and there you have it!

Lots of love with washi tape fun!

Hello friends!

I am sharing some fun way to use Washi tape to jazz up the Valentine Day .

Can you just imagine giving this to someone you love for Valentine's Day, I think it makes a pure joy to show your love to that special person? This darling card is made with straws with some beautiful laces added from my stash gives it that feminine touch and Perfect for Valentine's day by adding a Heart Balloon and shaker cuteness!
It's a part of my DT project for Peek-a-boo Designs!

Such a fabulous moodboard, full of glam elements! I Jazzed up my projects with sequin elements and inspired by all pink! Process

1. I wrapped lots of snippet of straws with  Lovey Dovey Washi tape and adhered them on a Dual Stitched Rounded Rectangle die cut rectangle and added a gorgeous white lace to it. 

 

2. Die cut the next size from the same die and added some snippets of dual shade of pink lace to it.

3. Die cut a heart from Balloon Mania die set out of copper glitter sheet and tied it with some golden strings.

4. Stamped the sentiment from Veined Daisy stamp set in dual shades of pink and before drying, quickly added some clear gloss embossing powder to it and heat embossed it. 

Here is the close-up view: You can clearly see the gloss on the sentiment.

5. Heat embossed an MDF designer frame in the dual shade, cut an acetate sheet to create a window and added some shaker elements to it with the sentiment. Adhered that die cut Heart using the pop dot.

6. Now adhered the focal panel to already embossed stitched base panel. Embellished it using some gold sequins and tiny enamel hearts.

It is so fun to see s big smile on someone's face as you give them your treasured handmade card!!

I am inspired with this image below! Different hues of pink shades on roses, hearts, pink flowers, pink satin ribbon, all these elements are so perfect for a Valentine card!

I simply started with Heart flutter image and stamped on a watercolor white sheet in black archival ink. Using Zig Clean color real brush markers, I watercolored the image with loose watercoloring technique and after drying properly fussy cut it!

On a stitched rounded rectangle white panel I stamped the sentiment from the same set and added the image to the top centre.
Now tied it with a very thin pink ribbon with a black one too. Added this focal panel to my pink card base with another layer of a black border.
Finished it off with a cute wooden heart! The image and sentiment say it all!

Thanks for visiting and stopping by!
