Season's greetings!

 Hello friends!

Happy Monday!

As you already know Itsy Bitsy is having a contest with a Christmas theme! And I made this festive card perfect for celebrating the wonderful time of this year!





I inked a white CS panel using DI. Added some white splatters for snowfall. Stamped the hanging lights and watercolored them. I roughly tore the white CS for the snowflake landscape and added two layers.



Now watercolored the snowman, Santa and a house using ZIG watercolor brushes, and fussy cut them all. Stamped the sentiment. Added all the images as shown in the below pic.

 Hello friends!

I embossed a one-third panel of a white sheet using dots EF. Hand cut an arch shape as shown in the below pic. Stamped the cute snowman image, watercoloured it, and fussy cut it.




As shown in the pic, I dragged the distress ink cube on a white panel to ink it properly.

December 2023 New Release Day, Blog hop and giveaway!

Hello everyone!

Happy Friday!


Finally, today is a Release day with such fabulous and unique designs this time! Perfect for this wonderful time of the year!!


Here are these 3 mini-release new products............



Background Blocks Layered Stripes £6
Copyright Uniko Ltd 2012 - To Date



Background Blocks Perspective £6
Copyright Uniko Ltd 2012 - To Date



Stencil - In & Flip Snowflake  £4.25
Copyright Uniko Ltd 2012 - To Date



My first card showcasing Background Blocks Layered Stripes!





Firstly I stamped the Layered stripes in Altenew blush ink on a white CS and heat-embossed all the edges of the CS with Wow Rich Gold Pale Gold EP.
On a piece of vellum paper, I created a bauble in Rich Gold Pale EP using Mid Century Modern Baubles stamp set.





Now cover the striped block with that vellum piece and tie it with a copper string. I matted this onto a Pearl Peach CS.


Totally changed the whole look, so Christmas-sy!


Here is my second card showcasing the Background Blocks Perspective stamp!


 


I started by stamping the blocks on a piece of white CS and colored it with my Blue color ZIG watercolor brushes.



The next step is to color the faces of the blocks in smokey blue.


The rest of the blocks on the upper side I colored red and the bottom ones in pink color.



I paired it with the Mid Century Modern Christmas stamp set and the sentiment is from the Most Wonderful stamp set. And matted it on my card base along with red and pink frames. Does this block have so many possibilities to play with!


My final card uses ink and flip Snowflake stencil.




I started by inking a square white panel using seedless preserves DI. Then got this beautiful snowflake in the centre with a star design!





I masked some of the panels and applied blushing berry sparkle paste to the triangular parts only as shown in the below pic.





But after removing the masking tape some of the parts get smudged, so I cut this panel into pieces like this. 




Inked another panel once again and at the center I created a winter scene using Background Builders Winter Wonderland stamp set.








Adhered those sparkled pieces to the main panel and voila love the result!
