Happy Bday Friend!!

Hello Everyone!!

This Weekend I made a card for one of my dearest friend for her birthday.My friend loves critters so I chose to use Clear stamps from Create A Smile.I have used "Cart full of treasures" and "Superpowers" stamp set.Here is my card

I have tried adding many interesting elements to this card as my friend is fun loving person and enjoys surprises.

Firstly I took a white watercolor card base and distressed it with Picked Rasperry .Then I die cut some geometrical shapes like rectangles and circle on the card.I added this sentiment from a clear stamp set from Fiskars in black archival ink.

Next I took another white cardstock and placed my first distressed sheet on top of it and marked spaces to stamp now.In the rectangles,I stamped the images and then water colored them.For the circle i chose to put a shaker element.

For this shaker element,I took a transparent small plastic bag and fill in the shakers inside and taped on the back of first sheet which is on the front.

Lastly I added some cup sequins to add interest to the card.

I enjoyed making this card and hoping my friend likes it too.

I am adding this card to following challenges:

Have a COOL birthday!!

Hello my crafty friends!!

I have a friend who simply loves ice-creams.Her birthday is in next week so I planned to make a cute birthday card for her.I have used Your next stamp "Happy Brrthday" stamp set.The waddle holding the ice-cream was just apt and I also had a coordinating sentiment in the same stamp set.Sharing my card below

For the base,I have done marble technique using green and white acrylic colors,adding water to the card stock and then making the design with a toothpick.Once that all semi dried,I have splattered some gold spray and again used toothpick to create a pattern.I left it aside for complete drying and once that was done,I attached it to main card base.My inspiration of doing this marble trick came from a picture posted by UNIKO for their photo inspiration challenge.I was quite impressed by the design on the suitcase and tried replicating it in my trick. along with birthday twist.

Here's the pic which inspired me to make this marbled background.

Next I tried adding more elements to my card,I used Your next stamp "Cool backgrounds" stamp set and lavender archival ink to create a pattern on a card stock of size 2*4.5 inches.Then I cut it into half horizontally and attached it as per the sketch challenge posted by Your next stamp.Here's the picture of the sketch

Lastly I attached the waddle with double sided foam and stamped the sentiment on the marbled background with Black archival ink.I have added some enamel dots on the top as well.

I am entering my card to following challenges:

 Hello friends,

I had a busy weekend with guests around...I made this card before starting the weekend for a last minute requirement of a friend who wanted to give one of my handmade cards to her 8 year old niece who is completely mad about crafts.I was quiet happy with the feedback I got that the little girl loved it.

I am totally excited to share this card as I have used my brand new buys from Altenew for this card.Let me share the card with you...

My inspiration for this card came from April Inspiration posted on Altenew card blog..here is a picture of the inspiration 

It was majorly the colors which inspired me in this pic.Here is the products I used,Altenew Watercolor stripes stencil and Happy Bloom stamp set with Rangers gold embossing powder.

So firstly I used stencil with Distress inks to create my background with some black color splatters on top of it ,after that I heat embossed the stamped image on vellum sheet,attached that to the base and lastly added some coordinating cup sequins and water droplets...TaDAA...my card is ready in 25 minutes...yeah I call that quick😅😆.

Here is one more pic of the card in different setup

While making this card I was completely inspired by Priya's card posted for Papericious March Birthday Challenge.I have tried making it sparkly birthday card by adding gold foil sheet and sequins.

I have used Papericious Gold foil heart sheet from Femina pack as my base sheet.Next I created a shaker element using Happy Birthday pack from Papericious again.In the center I have put number 3 which is diecut on Gold sheet.

I have used MFT Beary Special Birthday Stamp set,stamped the images with Black Archival ink and then water colored with zig pens.

Happy Birthday sentiment is from Papericious birthday paper pack.

I enjoyed making this cute adorable card.Hope you liked it too.
