For Uniko

Uniko's color palette was on my mind for a long time, got this cute bloom from Uniko's free images.
Printed and cut out the flower with scissors.
I sponged the flower with yellow ink, and the leaves with green pigment ink.
Used a brown card stock for the base, and a white card for the front. Embossed with the bamboo template.
Added a pale green crochet lace and used foam adhesive for the flower. Finally stamped the sentiment with a brown ink. Glad that I was able to keep it CAS.

Colourful Chevron

I made this card after seeing the fusion challenge, the colourful chevrons were eye catching.
I had spent a lot of time on this card, but very happy how fabulous it has turned out. Made it yesterday, but couldn't get a good picture since the weather was really cloudy and gloomy the whole day. Managed some pictures today, so sharing it today before I get caught up in my busy day and upcoming school week.
First I had added two panels, colored in ombre, on the card, since I am following a sketch. Then went on to color the chevrons. If you look closely, the changing colors of the chevrons is visible. I don't know how long it took to color ;)
Stamped the sentiment, and wrote 'mom' using stencil.
Added a tiny butterfly and some tiny hearts.

3D heart pop up card

I made this card a couple of months back(during Valentines time), but I didn't had a blog back then. I started blogging a bit more than 2 months for now. So it was never shared before , but sharing this now since I got a right place to share - at Paperminutes Challenge. I really like this challenge since I make a lot of different types of cards like this blog :) and finally every once in a while I can share a different card.

Star burst card

Made this Star burst card after a long time. I chose a white card stock, and the pattern paper is from the spring collection.
The bloom, I had cut it from another pattern paper, I like this flower's newsprint look.
Couple of leaves, and I had up cycled the twine, it came in a package material. It looked too useful to throw away. It is palm fiber.
Added the sentiment, on the designer paper, and continued along the star burst pattern. It is a card for a friend.
A floral button and two hearts as embellishments to wind up the card. 

A closer look at the bloom, and the palm fiber twine.

The sentiments on the star burst panels.

CASE Study, I like the flower and the sentiments attached with the flower, and all the different shapes in the inspiration card. I added the flower, but added the sentiments on the star burst panel. Added 2 hearts to give the different shapes look in my card. this is my take on the inspiration picture.

TIME OUT Challenges

I love the flower, and the color orange in here, and of course the twine. These were my inspiration from the above card. So my card is mostly orange, with a flower and of course the twine.

A special card

Today when I sat down to make this card, I set a couple of goals for myself.
Firstly, I wanted to draw my own image.
Secondly, I wanted to write the sentiment,  and finally keep it CAS.
This card has pushed me out of my comfort zone, and surprisingly I like how this card has come out.
I drew and colored the umbrella and the beach chair...yay I managed!
Drew a circle and I cut it with scissors, no big shot used for this.
Sponged light and dark blue ink for the scene, even though it is pretty hard to tell if I had used two inks ;) and distressed the edges with orange ink.
I wrote the sentiment with black fine tip pen, and colored with a turquoise gel pen. 'Enjoy' is the main word of the sentiment, made some sun rays around the dot of 'i', and colored in a tiny drink plus straw in the 'y'. Continued from the 'y' here to the rest of the sentiment.
That's it. Managed to do a card as desired!

Fantasy garden ~ straw blow painting

My first time doing a straw blow painting, chose trees to experiment since I thought trees are pretty easy, my thoughts before I got started. Of course, trees weren't that easy as I was thinking they would be.
Call me crazy but yes I chose blue and orange to do my trees. These are trees from a fantasy world, like Alice in Wonderland ;)

Used my daughter's Chinese painting  colors for this project

The process of blowing the straw, I surely have a long way to go!

Muse : Challenge #64, I really likes the colors in the inspiration card, but have done trees instead of the flowers.
