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.

Trick or Treat – Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember

Hello folks, Happy Monday!!
I was lucky enough to receive a free stamp set from Simon Says Stamp as part of their ‘STAMPtember‘ festivities. I’ve got ‘Trick or Treat‘ stamp set and this is one of SSS’s famous set! I am not a big fan of Halloween but, Kristina Werner’s catcula (cat + dracula) is SO so so adorable!!! Yay!

Here is what I came up with:
20140908-01To create my card, I cut on the white panel using two different circle dies and stamped ‘trick or treat’ bubble and little bats in Memento Tuxedo Black. Besides it, I stamped cat another white cardstock in black for copic colouring. I used copic markers for cat and all other elements – spider and bats – were stamped in black.

This is catcular’s spooky house. He is looking out through the window and says “Trick or Treat” lol!!

The Card Concept #18 – Back to School Theme

Hello folks!
It is time for a NEW challenge at The Card Concept! Check out the gorgeous inspiration below:
IP-18
And… here is what I came up with:
20140901-01As part of the wild card team, I am to create a card in the Shabby Chic style. Making shabby chic card with back to school theme? Oh…My… I was very concerned about it. But finally I found the great word ‘JOYFUL’. School life is full of happy & fun and it means there are lots of joyful moments like holding a bunch of beautiful flowers! Woo hoo!! These two is different kinds but the same feelings :D Hahaha~~

I chose two beautiful pattern papers from BasicGrey aspen frost collection pack – I used pattern papers after a long time – and put two pieces of paper together and then of course distressed the edges using Tim Holtz Paper Distresser. I then added more white acrylic paint on top till I had the look I wanted. Next, I decorated with several red & white roses, swirly leaves and white thread together.

20140901-02For the sentiment, I was so glad I found perfect stamps for back to school theme from Mama Elephant Today Was Stamp Set. “MON, TUE, WED, THU, FRI. full of laughs, so much fun” Phew~~~ Mama Elephant saved me lol!

20140901-03I hope you enjoyed my modern shabby chic style! :D

CASE Study 4th Anniversary Week 4

Hello folks!
My card today has been inspired by Jill Foster’s awesome card!

Here is her card:
CASE205-01Absolutely amazing!!!

And… here is my take on it:
20140902-01To create this card, I chose the largest flower stamp from Penny Black Floral Applique Stamp Set as a focal point and Stampington & Company Come Hither Stamp as well at first. I then stamped outline flower in Onyx Black pigment ink and the letters in Vintage Sepia pigment ink. Once dry, I painted whole panel include flower using several distress inks and then inked the edges with Vintage Photo & Black Soot Distress ink on an Ink Blending tool. Besides it, I applied white acrylic paint to the sides of red pattern paper panel till I had the look I wanted and also inked the edges with Black Soot Distress ink. Lastly, I added ink splatters for finishing touch.

20140902-02For sentiment, I used Wplus9 Hand Lettered Hello Die.

20140902-03Woo-hoo!! I really love this vintage look lol!

Big! Big congrats on the 4th Anniversary!!!

ric#66 – Sportmax

Hello folks,
My card today is for a new Runway Inspired Challenge #66 (I love Runway!)
ric badgeric66-Sportmaxric#66 – Sportmax
Wow… red, pink, violet on deep blue… really amazing colour combo!!! I love, love, love it.

Here is what I came up with:
20140826-01

For this card, I made deep blue paper panel using Studio Calico Color Theory Ink Deja Blue at first. I then affixed diagonally red, violet, and pink glitter striped along deep blue panel onto the white cardstock.

I chose a large rose stamp from Clearly Besotted Blooming Stamp Set and stamped on the separate white cardstock using Simon Says Stamps dye inks and then cut and layered them to form a cluster. In the centre of the flower cluster, I stamped sentiment in black pigment ink and then heat embossed it in clear – It is more shiny than just stamped sentiment – I affixed Studio Calico wood sequins for finishing touch.

20140826-02Oh! I didn’t forget to coat the roses using glossy accent :D

And… one more card here:
20140826-03YAY!! Watercolour card here! I am seriously Water-Colour-Lover :D Basically, I stamped on the watercolour paper using Wplus9 Stamps Coming Up Roses Stamp Set and then painted it using several distress inks.
