Sponged card

Woke up to a foggy and cloudy morning, and I sat down to make a card, all I knew was that I will make something bright. This is what I have come up with.
A single layered card, did quite a bit of sponging to create the background. I cut the cloud and flower stencil myself.
The middle layer is sponged with a golden shimmering ink, I have added a picture but need to really focus to look at it.
Added some purple glitter to the big bloom.
For the bottom most layer, I sponged lightly with a green ink, then added the die cut  leaves to sponge the leaves.
Used a tiny bloom, and a tiny butterfly as embellishments. Lastly, stamped the sentiment on the bottom layer.



The pigment inks I had used.

Managed a picture of the shimmer.
  

Posting this card to the Catchy Challenges

And for  STAMPlorations Blog yet again as one of my favorite techniques - Sponging.



CASE Study, My blog is just over 2 months, and this will be my first time entering for a DT spot, 
I am CASing Valita's work here, it was this card of hers, which got me into sponging, and there is no looking back, I am addicted to sponging now.

Another challenge

Easter holidays have kicked in starting today. I am off work for a bit more than a week now. So I am in a full crafting mode this morning.
This is a color and sketch inspired card.
Chose a white card stock for base, since my stamp collection is really humble,  I had chosen the black designer paper with greyish flowers on it.
Added die cut grey leaves, and a cute white bloom.

Hang in there

All dog lovers will surely love this card. I have a childhood phobia against dogs, so this is how far I can go, make a card. With exception to one dog, who visits my house,  and I am not bothered by her.
And onto the card now.  Kept the look CAS.
It is a single layered card, but has added some dimensions to the balloons. I don't have any stamps or image for the dog. So I had used a foam sticker.
Sponged a pink and purple pigment ink at the very bottom of the card.
A very simple and cute card! I love how it has turned out.

White and neon combo

Made this card using a cute inspiration picture and just love the colors in there.
My eyes caught the miniature tree with neon balloons on it, and I kind of knew what I was going to come up with.
I drew and cut out the tree using scissors.
Added some neon flowers,  again cutting out each flower using scissors. For this I had used a neon pattern paper.
Sponged some candles, using a self made tiny stencil. For the candle flame, I had used glitter. Used a double sided tape for glitter,  I always use this technique for an even layer of glitter and it doesn't scatter later on too.
Stamped the sentiment using a pale ochre ink, and ran a golden colored glitter gel pen over it.
Distressed the edges with a yellow ink, and a few dots in pink and gold to finish off.

New heights

A simple masculine card with some sponging.  I had cut out the cloud shape and did some sponging in diagonally. Cut out a kite using white card stock and colored it in 2 different shades of blue, attached a tiny star to the string. A fun sentiment to wind up the card.

Flag inspired

Made this card for the Daring Cardmakers challenge, inspired by a flag. I chose Indian flag to make it.
This card has many layers. Sponged the last layer with the flag colors, and added some random circles. An embellishment at the center to wind up. A very bright and vibrant card!
