~ AAA Birthday Challenge #60 Shaker ✨💖🧁🥳

Hello my Crafty friends,

Summers are full on swing mood ☀️🏖️ Miss A has conquered my craft space with her new goodies. She is eager to explore my craft supplies and she wants to learn how to use them 😂😜 I'm excited as well to see what she comes up with her ideas. 

Coming to today's post , it's card made for AAA Birthday Challenge #60 - Shaker. Isn't it a fun to use shaker elements in a simple card !! 🤩

To be frank, I wasnt a fan of shaker card until today's card even though it cheers up the recipient. It was mostly due to the foam tape that I was using before. Over the time the tape would open up was my fear to trying this out. It upsets a perfectionist like me if it opens up when given to recipient. 

When I was talking about my concern with my dear friend Disha, she suggested to try out infinite shaker card. And that's what my card for today's post

It's self explanatory card, I choose an ink blended background with shaker elements in the packing sheet and adhered the 'Big Birthday Wishes' diecut on the top of shaker window. 

I hope you like my card inspiration and if you would like to play along with current challenge please head over to AAA Birthday Challenge Blog and get inspired by my fellow crafters to play along :)

~ AAA Colourful Challenge #2 - Guest Designing

Hello my crafty friends,

I'm here with a new colorful card for a brand new challenge in town called AAA Colourful -Colour theme challenges. I'm guest designing for the current month and the mood board is just intriguing 🤩💟 

This month mood/colour board is as below: 

Summer is full on with humid weather in here Mangalore, India !! Also Miss A annual exams ☺️ I wanted to keep my inner self calm so used watercolors after a very long time 🥰 Without further delay sharing inspiration : 

The Stampset is from Simon Says Stamp - Delicate flowers. I have used antique lenin distress ink for stamping and used zig markers to colour them. Tried no line colouring to give natural affect. Fussy cut them and colored their edges with respective colors. 

Some white and golden splatters, die cut frame beneath. Arranged the florals and leaves with foam squares & others with liquid glue to create dimensions. Once I was satisfied added sequins of matching colors and finished off my card. 

I struggle with arrangements of florals and adding layers with floral composition. Do let me know few go to techniques that you follow so that I can use them in my next cards. 🤗

I would take this moment to thank Jane and AAA Colourful Challenge Team for giving me an opportunity of guest spot. Thank you once again ❤️

Do let me know how it has turned out and that's all for today and hoping you all will join us in the ongoing challenge and  don't forget to link your projects here ☺️

Love,

Deekshita

~ Heart'y Birthday Wishes 🌈🥳🎂

 Hi my Crafty friends,

Its a 1st day of a new month- February already !? We have a new challenge at AAA Birthday Challenge #58 Hearts 💕 How not to incorporate the heart theme with birthday when its February month ?! Isn't it ?!

 

For today's card inspiration I chose to make pastel rainbow heart theme as initial design. I punched out heart diecuts from a strip of paper and colored them using alcohol markers. Also used Wonky Stitched Rectangle STAX die on a kraft cardstock and an oval die to make a window. 

Adhered white texture note card to the kraft die cut window. Colored Heart die cut is pasted on one another using liquid glue and mounted on the textured background using foam tape. For sentiment I chose to write on my own and tried my hands on brush calligraphy 🙊

~ AAA Birthday Challenge #56 Add a Tag 🔖🎂🥳

 Hi my Crafty friends,

It's a last month of the year already !!!! Hope all are busy with preparation for Christmas already 🎄 🎁 

But today I have a new card that's made for AAA Birthday Challenge - 56 Add a Tag

I have attempted a masculine birthday card with tag attached. It was a quick card but choice of colours made it easily as I had a pattern paper that matched my colored lil guy 😊

Little guy is from the Scooby Mysteries stampset from Craftyscrappers and I colored him using alcohol markers. Sentiment & patterned paper was gifted by Jane from Janedoodles :) I have used rounded tag Punch from dress my craft. Lastly for the little bing the used few sequins here and there !! Viola it's ready:)

~ AAA Birthday Challenge #54 Favourite Colors

 Hii Crafty friends,

I'm back with a new card for a new challenge at AAA Birthday Challenge - #54 Favourite Colors . 

I chose to make a galaxy themed card for today's card 🌌 as blue and pink are classic combo and I love the results of them using ink blending technique. 

I have stamped the image on neenah cardstock and coloured using alcohol markers. For the background have masked the area to do the ink blending. I have used the distress inks for the same. Some white ink splatters and water to lift inks. Sentiment was heat embossed on black piece of cardstock. Star sequins to finish it off ✨

~ Happiest Birthday Ever - 🥳🦊🎉

Hello my Crafty friends, 

           How often do you make CAS cards ?! Or do you tend to make more lesser than clean & simple 🙈😁

 

I'm sharing my cute and simple card that's made for MFT Superstar Card Design 2023. Here is my entry for Clean and Simple Genius Category 

I thought it would be good idea to do no - line coloring on kraft cardstock but the fact is I have used pencils for couple of times only 🙈 Still, I was clear what I wanted to make. Sometimes its good to take up challenge and go with the flow !! 

I have stamped this cute little fox on the kraft cardstock using antique linen distress ink. Using polychromos pencils colored the image with no line effect. Masked the fox added leaves and added the grass beneath. Sentiment was heat embossed and stamped little bufferfly for added interest 🙈 Its very hard to walk away and not to add anything else !! I can't wait to see what you all come up with 🤩

Supplies used 

Let's Curl up & BB adorable elephants Stamps 

Wonky Stitched Rectangle STAX die
