Pretty Pink Posh Turns 4!

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends, TGIF!!
Welcome to the third and last day of the Pretty Pink Posh 4th Birthday Celebration Blog Hop! You may have just arrived here from amazingly talented Mindy Baxter.

For today’s card, I’m featuring the new Pretty Petunias, Hummingbird Thanks, and Love Sentiments sets.
As many of you already know that Ultra Violet is PANTONE® colour of the year 2018! Honestly it isn’t my favourite colour, BUT.. Pretty Petunias set told me to use that to my card! :D
I stamped petunias (from the Pretty Petunias set) and hummingbird (from the Hummingbird Thanks set) on watercolour paper using VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink, coloured them using mixed with Derwent inktense colored pencils and Seedless Preserves Distress ink. Before mounting all watercoloured images, I ink blended on the bottom left corner of the card base using Seedless Preserves Distress ink.
Look at the hummingbird! Oh, it is so lovely!!

GIVEAWAY!!
We’ll be giving away 2 $50 gift certificates to random comments left on the different stops every day! That’s right, we’re giving away a total of SIX $50 gift certificates!

Altenew January 2018 Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends! Welcome to the Altenew January 2018 Release Blog Hop! Here are the new and (of course) fabulous products we have in January!! If you arrived here from Erum Tasneem’s blog you are on the right track!

For my first two cards, I used the Creative Edges: Lace die and the Rose Flurries 3D die set. As soon as I saw the Rose Flurries 3D, I completely fell in love with it! I’m sure you’ll like it, too.
I die cut A2 sized rectangle panel from white card stock, then die cut from the right side of the panel using brand new Creative Edges: Lace die. For the flowers, I die cut them from coloured card stocks using the Rose Flurries 3D die set, then made a bunch of flowers.
For my second card, I used glitter gold flowers on navy card base!! It’s simply beautiful and elegant!

The new sentiment “Thinking of You” die is so gorgeous!! First, I made a floral background using the Flower Arrangement stamp set. Next I die cut the “Thinking of You” from the centre of the stamped panel. I stacked 4 other die cuts under the stamped sentiment cut using fine tip glue pen. After mounting, I lightly coloured the sentiment with Tattered Rose Distress ink and water brush.

Flora & Fauna: Sending good vibes

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends, happy Monday!
I want to share with you my fun watercolour card today with some Flora & Fauna stamp sets: Love Bug, Winter Aviary, You Me and Tea sets.

I started by stamping “driving friends” from brand new Love Bug set on watercolour paper, watercoloured it with Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel, and then fussy cut it out. For making floral background, I stamped cute flowers & leaves from two Winter Aviary & You Me and Tea sets on the top & bottom of watercolour paper panel using VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink, loosely watercoloured them with Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel as well. I added more watercolours using Festive Berries Distress ink.
Once the floral panel was completely dry, I mounted it on top-folded white card base using double-sided tape, and then added the “driving friends” cut on the centre of the card front using foam tape. I added the sentiment banner as if the personalised number plate. :D
Sending you good vibes!

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

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

Altenew Build-A-Flower: Carnation + Giveaway

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends!
This month’s build-a-flower set features a beautiful carnation. The meaning of carnation includes fascination, distinction, and love, and its use in art and decor dates back to ancient Greek and Roman times. With their ruffled appearance and classic beauty, these flowers possess a charm and allure that continues to captivate people around the globe. Alongside the multi-step carnation, we have included two-step leaves, berries, and a cluster of tiny flowers that can be used as filler images for your flower arrangements! The set also includes three kindness sentiments that are great for any occasion.
Altenew Build-A-Flower: Carnation

Here is what I came up with:
When I saw the beautiful Carnation set, I wanted to make very feminine card. :D I stamped layered carnations & leaves using some dye inks, and then die cut them with the matching dies:
Red carnation: (light to dark) Frosty Pink, Cotton Candy, Coral Berry, Ruby Red
Pink carnation: Frosty Pink, Peach Perfect, Cotton Candy, Coral Berry
Leaves: Frayed Leaf, Forest Glades
Before mounting the cluster of carnations, I decorated the Spicy Yogurt card base with lace.

Please visit and leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog for a chance to win one of THREE $30 gift certificates!!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a lovely day!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

Hello crafty friends, TGIF!
Welcome to the Altenew December Release Blog Hop!! If you arrived here from Altenew Scrapbook blog you are on the right track!

In December, we have 14 brand new stamp sets & matching die sets, 2 stand-alone die sets and..ta-da! new Mini Blossom Die Cutting Machine!!

It can be used to quickly and easily die cut a variety of materials, including cardstock and Altenew specialty papers, and will help you add texture and dimension to your projects.

For my first card, I used the Happy Together stamp set and “Thank you” word die in the Flower Arrangement die set. I started by stamping flowers from the Happy Together set randomly onto watercolour paper panel in pigment black ink, and then watercoloured the panel with several Distress inks.
I die cut “Thank you” sentiment from white card stock using the Flower Arrangement die set. It’s a beautiful and trendy script font!

For my second card, I used the Peony Spray stamp set – I love this set in particular!
