~ 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 ✨

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 :)

~ 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 🤩

Guest Designer @ Ifeelglee

 Hi my crafty friends 🤗

As the title says today I had this wonderful opportunity to be guest designing at Kanan's blog ifeelglee . I am honoured and grateful for her sweet gesture. She is one of a kind and sweet cute friend that I have ever met. Thank You so much Kanan ❤️ 🥰

I was overwhelmed by her sweet gesture to ask if I could do the designing over her blog !! Yay 😁 I literally did a happy dance as it's one of my first guest designing post !! 

Today's card is all about cute bunnies 🤩 Other day when I was looking over my card projects I came across that I had never made card saying Safe Travels. So this made to pick up these cute little bunnies. 

Let's see how I made this card !! 

Cute bunnies were stamped on the Watercolored paper using Versafine Onyx black ink and coloured using my favourite zig markers. To attain the beautiful cloudy background I have used stencilling technique through inkblending. I used a rectangle die to create a window. To add a color play I added a piece of pattern paper behind the panel. Once I was happy with the outcome I adhered everything using liquid glue and bunnies with foam squares for little dimension. Also few sequins and enamel dot for final touches  🙈 I never fail to add these little add-ons to my card to give that extra effect . 

I hope you like my this cute bunnies card inspiration and do let me know what you loved about it in the comments below 👇
