Happy Birthday Kitty!!

Hi everyone!!

Today I have a sweet kitty card,this one is a quick card for some followers who asked me to show them easy ways of making cards,where not too much of coloring or too many card making techniques are involved.So unto my card first,

For this card,I was completely inspired by the Inky paws challenge by Newton's Nook Designs.

Here's the link to the challenge

http://www.inkypawschallenge.com/2018/05/inky-paws-challenge-72.html

The challenge is to add buttons to the project..I simply loved the idea and tried making an easy card with the same.

I have used a stamped image from Newton loves cake stamp set from Newton's Nook designs.

I too a red card base first and then I took a yellow card base and die cut it with circle dies.After adhering that to the base I started putting the buttons around the circle in a designer manner with the help of clear glue.Then I adhered the stamped and fussy cut image with double sided foam.Lastly I stamped the sentiment from same stamp set and adhered it with double sided foam after distressing the edges a little with green color.

Yes,this was quick and easy and can be tried easily by young card lovers as well.

Hope you enjoyed the making,Do try and share your creatives,

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:

Make a wish!!!

Hello all,

Today's card is my favorite...I have tried something very new...crossing my fingers and hoping you all would like this new take.Here's the card first and then I will talk more about the material used and rest of the description.

I have used Superpowers stamp set and Swooshes stamp set from Create a Smile.Firstly I took a raw card base and stuck a textured gold sheet on it leaving some area open.On a separate card stock I stamped stars with watermark ink from Swooshes stamp set in a pattern covering whole area.Then heat embossed with white powder and distressed with two shades,chipped sapphire and seedless preserves.The fairy is stamped on separate sheet with black archival ink and then watercolored with Zig markers.

The die of houses and tress is from Stamplorations, Stitched Winter Landscape- Cutplorations. every aspect is attached one by one either by clear glue or double sided foam tape.Lastly I added some bling to my lovely scene.

I am playing along following challenges with this card!
