To create my card, I randomly stamped holiday petals and leaves on the kraft cardstock using Simon Says Stamp Dye Ink Khaki. I then stamped those adorable kids using Memento Tuxedo Black and then coloured the images using Copic markers.

The Card Concept #22 – ThankFall

Posted on by

Happy Wednesday everyone! Are you still enjoying the lovely autumn weather? Here we are again with a new challenge at The Card Concept! Check out the beautiful inspiration picture below:
IP-22So lovely! isn’t it? I love those rustic fall colours!!

And… here is what I came up with:
20141029-01

From this challenge, I can pick any of those 6 different styles as part of the wild card team and I chose ‘Freestyle Collage‘. Well… it could be called CAS card but… Hmm… Anyway, I made watercolour card :D

To create my card, I used second generation stamping technique. Second generation stamping is a great way to watercolour painting. For sentiment I heat embossed on the black cardstock in white and cut using banner die among Sweet Havana Die Cuts and then adhered it to the rustic vase image using dimensional foam tape. To finish it off, I spritzed Studio Calico Mister Huey’s Calico Shine around the flower vase.

20141029-02Ohhhh.. I love Mama Elephant Sweet Havana Stamp Set and watercolouring! I was inspired by Nichol Magouirk‘s beautiful watercolour cards :D

Thank you so much for stopping by and Have a wonderful day!!

The Card Concept #21 – Sunflowers

Posted on by

Hello folks! Are you enjoying the lovely autumn weather?

Today I want to share a NEW challenge at The Card Concept! Check out the gorgeous inspiration below:
IP-No21I love, love, love those beautiful sunflowers!!

And… here is what I came up with:
20141015-CAL-01
As part of the wild card team, I am to create a card in the Clean and Layered style! I thought dies and layered card, those two make a very good combination!

I die-cut Poppystamps Bountiful Sunflower as a focal point. Next I made two different sized pattern paper panels and die-cut a circle out of the panel each. I then the sunflower & leaves went both under and over the circle window.

Hello folks! It’s already October?! Time flies!
Today I want to share a NEW challenge at The Card Concept! Yay!! Check out the gorgeous inspiration below:
IP-20

And… here is what I came up with:
20141001-01

As part of the wild card team, I am to create a card in the Clean and Simple (CAS) style. I really love Clean and Simple but, it was a bit of a challenge because I usually make bold cards :D

I chose rustic wagon with full of yummy pumpkins from Flourishes Autumn Blessings Stamp Set as a focal point. I stamped it in Memento Tuxedo Black and coloured with Copic markers. I made one layer card!
20141001-02Isn’t look yummy? I hope you enjoyed my CAS card! :D

The Card Concept #19 – Colour Challenge

Posted on by

Hello folks!
It is time for a NEW challenge at The Card Concept! Check out the gorgeous inspiration below:
IP-19Isn’t it gorgeous autumn colours? So lovely! I love the lime, red, yellow on the white :D

And… here is what I came up with:
20140915-01

As part of the wild card team, I am to create a card in the Freestyle Collage this time. Hooray~ I love autumn colours and am so happy to make card with watercolours!!

To create my card I chose two beautiful dies. One was adorable Poppystamps Maple Leaf Border die as a focal point and another was Wplus9 Hand Lettered Thank you die.

First I created my own watercolour background using several distress inks. I blended Festive Berries, Mustard Seed, and Mowed Lawn together and then stamped letters on the left side in distress ink Aged Mahogany. I then spritzed fresh water and shiny gold on the watercolour panel. Besides it, I die cut the maple leaves on white cardstock and dabbed them in lime green, yellow, and red each and then applied gold ink to the edge of all leaves. For the sentiment, I die cut the ‘Thank you’ letter instead of message stamp. Lastly, I spritzed shiny gold ink splattering on the maple leaves and letters.
