Uniko Sponsors - 25 days of Christmas tags

Hello everyone, today Uniko is sponsoring Our wonderful Tracey's annual event - 25 days of Christmas Tags.

I have 2 tags today.
The first one is an Acetate one. I used Avery Elle tag die cut to cut out one card stock and one acetate tag.
i used the falling snow Bg for the paper tag and stamped in SU ink, and also stamped the sentiment on to it.
I stamped the snowflakes on the acetate tag. Finished off with a black ribbon.

----------------------------------------------

The second one is made using WRMerory keepers circle die cuts,
I stamped the rustic wreath, and built he wreath with more stamping, I added a black diecut circle frame around the wreath, stamped the sentiment in the center, and used a jingle bell along with a green string to finish off the tag.

I am linking this with the tag challenge, inspired by trascey's beautiful wreath tag on day 14

I hope you like what I made!

CAS with Acetate

My second post today.
I am sharing an acetate card here now.
I had used the lotus image which I shared on the Instagram, which i colored a few days back.
I used Faber Castell color pencils to color the lotuses from Waffle flower her, and fussy cut only the top a bit, and added it to the acetate base. I aslo did some stamping on the acetate using the dragonflies.
I used a blue ink to sponge the bottom, and then used Tim Holtz woodgrain stencil to mask the sponging to add more blue to give  a water effect
I used another fussy cut one too, a few pearls to finish off. The sentiment is also from the same set.

Acetate and vellum together

Good evening blogger peeps, it's night and I usually don't post at this time. It just happened that I finished making a card, and then I saw on Instagram Hannelie's card for CASology, and bingo...it matches the cue, this doesn't happen that often. So I looked at the time, it's past 9, and I have quite a bit of time to write a post ;)

Ok as you all know that I am bitten by the acetate bug, I made one yesterday also, I am holding that one for a while before I post.
Using acetate is very easy, and I find stamping on acetate is fun and very forgiving, all you need is to keep a wet wipe handy, if you make a mistake, just wipe immediately, unlike card stock, where you have to think of ways to cover up or trash it ;)

I chose Uniko's bold blooms here, and stamped in Hero Arts Ombre ink, and then used clear embossing powder to heat emboss. The leaves are stamped using the wild wasabi from SU and heat embossed. I fussy cut all to add to the base. I used a white back and a acetate front for my card. I stamped some leaves on acetate, and arranged the flowers and leaves. The flower is cut out in 2 steps to give more dimension.
The sentiment is from Uniko - get well soon set, I lined it with a pale green. That's all, I am calling it a CAS card, and hoping that looking at so many elements people, still consider it CAS. It was a quick make.
I have quite a few pictures, I usually craft in night, and take pictures in the morning under natural light, but I was bit eager to share this card, and hoping I have done justice with the pictures.

Back from holidays, and up with an acetate card

Hello blogger peeps, I am back from my holiday. It's been 2 days already, but seems like I need a holiday to get over my holiday. It was a hectic holiday, with climbing up the steps of the temples, and walking so much everyday. Over all it was a nice holiday, but bit tiring physically. I think we might have seen over 20 temples, all built about 1000- 1200 years ago. I always wanted to visit Angkor Wat, so I am happy. You might have seen the pictures on my Instagram, it was all worth.
I am bit tired to step in my craft room, but managed to go in for a short time today, to make a quick card. The idea was sitting in my head and troubling me for last few days, so had to sit down to execute it.
I made a super quick acetate card. It is not fully acetate, but only the front is.
I chose a white base, and acetate front. I started with heat embossing the vellum using a silver embossing powder, The stamp is from CAS-ual Fridays - hope ribbon, then colored the back using a pink copic marker. I fussy cut it to add to the front.
I kept the white border on the front, and added pink glitter paper strips. Stamped the sentiments from the same set on the acetate in black archival ink.
That is it nothing much is done here to talk about it, I like how it has turned out, and I hope you all like it too.

Acetete with Paper Smooches

Happy Monday all, the weekend went by too quick. I am still exploring acetate, you know me, when I pick up a technique, I just use it till I have explored it many possible ways.
I don't think, I have explored enough with acetate yet, so you might see many more cards.

This card is made with partial acetate and partial card base for the front and back. Actually, I used part of acetate for the coffee shaker I made the other day. I am not in mood for shakers at the moment, and thought of using it this way.
For the back, I inked a panel using distress inks to get the autumnal tone, and it goes bit further up tha the front, as I want it as my background for the buildings and birds on the front.
I did partial die cut of the buildings die from Paper Smooches, for the front, and added it, I also decided to add a "friend" die cut also from Paper Smooches The birds are from the Summer lovin set from, and the sentiment is also from the same set, but I stamped only the 2 words from the sentiment.
A few jewels to finish off.
I am quite satisfied with my card here, and I hope you like it too.
