Monstrous birthday

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

I am sharing another birthday card using Fuzzy monster stamp set from Your next stamp. Many know that Your next stamp has shut down and it's my favourite stamp company and I will use their stamps more often. The card is simple with a monster flying out of an envelope with a golden balloon and gifts. I added a sentiment and my card is done. I used Ohuhu markers to colour the image.

Coffee love

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

I have another love theme card and this time, I am playing with Coffee cuties from Your next stamp. I used markers to colour the image and fuzzy cut the image and kept it aside until I worked with the card base. For the base, I used a heart die cut mask and angled it. Using Distress oxide inks  - Candid apple and Picked raspberry to ink the card base. I removed the heart mask and added some dashes with black pen. I stamped the sentiment and added the image with some gemstones.

Live your dreams

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

I am happy to be back with a bang this year with a super fun card using Fuzzy monsters from Your next stamp and I added a ton of gift boxes to go along with their challenge theme. There are so many elements in the stamp set and I made a fun card here. I used a dog and a cat along with gift boxes from the stamp set. I coloured and fuzzy cut the images. I took a card base and stenciled some large circles using shades of yellow randomly. I also added a banner on one side of the card base. I used pattern paper to make some gift boxes and added the it to the card base. I added the dog and cat sitting on the gift box and added smaller boxes. I also added the balloons and some gemstones and finished with a sentiment.

Autumn well

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

I have a clean and simple one layer card for today's post using Joyful wishing well from Your next stamp. I used the cute well from the set and coloured using autumn colours and a beautiful sentiment to go along with the card. The card is a simple one with no accents except for stamped image. I loved colouring this image and that's when I realised that this image can be used for any season. I used this one to make an autumn well and colours.

Furry birthday wishes

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

I am back with a fun birthday card today where I decided to use Fuzzy Monsters stamp set from Your next stamp. I used two monster images from that along with balloons, banners and gift boxes from the same set. I had a lot of scrap pattern papers with me and decided to use them by die cutting some circles. I coloured the stamped images using alcohol markers and added some interest to coloured images. To make the card, I added a pattern paper to the base and then added the circle die cut pieces. On these, I added the coloured images and some gemstones and finished with a sentiment.

Card using scraps

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

My card for today is all about using the scraps I have in hand and turn them into card using Costume Fhiona and Dragonfly dreams from Your next stamp. This stamp has cute images to build it into a butterfly fairy and we can make cards, tags, journals using them. I stamped out all the images and coloured them and fuzzy cut it out. The face is separate from the wings and the body so, I has to cut the center of the body so I can add the face and antennas. I added a couple of dragon flies which I stamped on pattern paper. For the background, I added some pattern paper scraps and added the coloured images with some gemstones and a sentiment.

Coffee buddies

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

Have you had a cup of hot beverage while the sunrises over a meadow with loved ones? Isn't that wonderful??? I live in a city and all I see in the morning is traffic and the noise of construction. I am  a tea person and always dreamt of living someplace where I can enjoy my morning tea looking over a beautiful valley or better yet fjords... 

I made this card as this is the closest I could come to my dream :) .. For this card, I used Coffee Cuties stamp set and Ellie loves to bake (retired stamp set). I followed the sketch provided for this fortnight by Your next stamp and made a slimline card where I made a meadow and added the stamped image. 

People who know me, know how much I love YNS stamps and this one is awesome to colour. I coloured and fuzzy cut the elements and kept them aside (which took a while to find in the mess after inking... LOL). I inked the backgrounds with Altenew inks and added some trees using alcohol markers and grass with colour pencil. I added the cup with the critters and layered with the pastries. I finished the card with a sentiment and added it to a slimline card base.

Peek-a-boo door card

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

Let's say Winter is here and I have an interactive card using Little darling Winter from Your Next Stamp and I went on to do a no-line colouring on kraft cardstock. Its a very simple card and I made it into an interactive one by having a door and the sentiment is hidden behind the image. Its a peek-a-boo door card without any specialty dies. 

To make this card, I stamped the image with antique linen distress ink and coloured with pencils. Once, I was done, I drew an outline using pencil and cut the three side with a craft knife and scored the left part with a scoring tool. I die cut a snowflake and added a senitment on white cardstock. I added the white piece to the back of the kraft cardstock and added both to a top fold note card. To finish the card, I used unicorn white pigment ink from Hero arts and stamped snowflakes and splattered white gold paint.

Get your fiction card

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

I love to use multiple stamps to make a fun card and here is one using Little darling Frog princess and Get your fiction on from Your Next stamp. I love YNS stamps as they have wonderful images and is the best to mix and match them up together. 

I used both the images from Get your fiction on stamp set where you can see the bookworm reading a book and the other is holding the book. I think its retired stamp set and I got it loooonnng back. I stamped and coloured both the images and fuzzy cut it out. I stamped the girl and boy image from Little darling stamp set and coloured and fuzzy cut it out as well. 

I took a kraft cardstock and stenciled with brown ink and brick stencil. I inked a white card with blue ink and added the images. I die cut it using a cloud die. I added the bookworms to the stenciled background and layered them. There is an open book with the bigger bookworm which I cut it out and added it to one side and added the small one in front of it making it look like they are reading a book together. I added the die cut piece and it looks like one of them is imagining what happens in the book. I finished with gemstones and sentiment.

Pet a fish

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

A friend of mine,  who loves fish and she has a small fish tank at home with a couple of fishes as a pet. I was so inspired by her idea to have fish as pet, I decided to make a card using Fishy fun from Your next stamp and used two fishes from the set to make a CAS card. I added some waves using stencil and highlighted with pencil and then, added the fishes and finished with a sentiment.

Sketch your birthday

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

Birthday cards are real fun to make especially while using tiny critters and making them colourful. For my card, I used a teddy from Balloon buddies stamp set and made him hold a balloon in his hands. I used a sketch from Your next stamp challenge. 

I masked off some areas with a masking paper and inked the top most part of the card and made it colourful. Then I partially inked a little from the bottom of the card and added the critter holding a balloon. To finish the card, I added a sentiment and some gemstones.

Wings of nature

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

 “Butterflies are self-propelled flowers.” — Robert A. Heinlein. What a beautiful quote for Butterflies. For my card for today, I have a CAS watercoloured card where I have used butterfly stencil and for the background, I used butterfly die cut from Your next stamp. 

I have used my favorite water colour, Beyond inks. It's an Indian brand and brilliant selection of colors. At the end of the post I have a video for the same. The card is very simple and focus stays on the butterfly.

Balloon buddies birthday card

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

Don't we all love to make birthday cards?? What I love about making these cards are I can make them colourful, use seasonal colours and there is no specific theme or anything here. For today's card, I used Balloon buddies stamp set from Your next stamp. The set has super cute balloon images along with cute tiny critters and sentiment. For my card, first I stamped the critter images, coloured, fuzzy cut them out. I also stamped two balloon images to go along with them as well. 

I took a white card stock and inked the background with distress oxide inks and let them dry. Next, I stamped some birthday ribbon images on the inked piece and added the balloons. Along with it, added a black cardstock strip as well. 

For finishing the card, I stamped and cut the sentiment birthday and tucked the critters behind it to make it look like they are holding the birthday banner. And on the top, I stamped the word Happy. Added this panel to a black cardstock and that too a white notecard.

A cup for two

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

I am back with a create-a-scene card using Coffee Cuties from Your next stamp. This is a super fun card and perfect for loved ones. I used dies, stencils to make the scene. I made it look like the bunnies are sitting in a garden in a cup enjoying their coffee and its so dreamy with the colourful clouds and the Victorian lamp. 

To make the dreamy cloud, I used distress oxide inks - Wilted violet, Picked raspberry and Broken china. I used a cloud stencil to make the background. 

I die cut grass and inked with Twisted citron and Lucky clover and for the lamp I used Walnut stain and Frayed burlap. To make the light, I used Spice marmalade. I also added some hearts as well. 

After stenciling, I stacked up the die cut pieces together and tucked in the image and finished the card with a sentiment and stones.

Birthday princess card

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

I have a super fun card here using Little Darling Belle from Your next stamp. YNS is my all time favourite stamp company and they have such beautiful stamps and coordinating dies. For my card, I used this gorgeous stamp set where there is one image which I stamped, coloured and fuzzy cut it. For the card base, I used background Brick die from fantasy dies. I cut it twice and layered them to give some thickness and dabbed some ink on the die cut piece. I also inked up before adding the die. I used double sided foam adhesive to add the image and stamped some stars and coloured them. To finish the card, I added some white dots with a gel pen and added a sentiment.

Elsa - No line colouring

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

Recently, I started trying my hands on no-line water colouring and it is definitely fun. For today's post I am using Little darling winter from Your next stamp. For  colouring I used water colours from Beyond inks and I will definitely recommend them and I love the quality of the inks and water colour paper that comes along with the inks. 

To stamp the image, I used Antique linen distress ink and paint brush sizes 0 & 2 to do my colouring. Colours used here:

1. Coffee Brown - for skin
2. Forest green & Rose pink  - for dress
3. Mustard yellow & Sunflower yellow - for hair
4. Aqua blue - for the background

I am not great at watercolouring but I gave my best here and will be making more cards with the same technique. To finish the card, I assembled all of it and finished with sentiment and some gem stones.

Spring sunset card

Hello there,

Welcome to my blog and follow my work on social media.

For today, I have a card made using Fairytale friends from Your next stamp where I used the deer, rabbit and the mushroom home. For the background, I tried to make a vanilla sky and the sunsetting along the sea. For the background, I used inks from Craftyscrappers and used a make up brush. Make up brush is perfect for adding very mild inks and they also work well for blending. 

I love the evening sky, sometime when I look out of the window I can see a beautiful vanilla sky and I used that for my card. For the sea, I wanted it to be a little dark and not exactly blue so I used seaweed shade ink to give a little dark colour to the sea. While inking, I placed a circle die sticker to mask off the sun. Then I used the negative space to add colour to the sun. 

I die cut grass and inked them up as well. After keeping all this ready, I stamped the images and cut them out. I assembled all the images together and added sequins and finished with a sentiment.
