Jane's Doodle, rain or shine

Hey all,

Its been few days that I have not done crafting but it seems its been years *sigh*

Before I get engrossed into a big painting thats waiting for me to complete, I want to experiment more with the cards. :)

Seeing the DT posts for Janes doodles, I wanted to try my hand onto the sets. As I am just a few months old in this crafting world, these sets gave me the ultimate joy to experiment more *happy*

So I am starting with a new post for a new card.

I took the Jane's Doodle Rain or shine stamp set (for which I have gone mad :D ) and stamped with Versamark and finished it with black embossing.

Coloured the images with my all time favourite Fuji colors.
(I am sure this name is creating much anticipation among the crafters :D )

And yes, did the fussy cut. I have coloured the background in blue from the same folios and stamped raindrops from the same stamp set using distress inks. And completed the background with Spun sugar distress ink.

I must agree to the fact, this whole set is a fab <3

A Simple Birthday Card

Hey all,

Today I have experimented again with the Peek-a-Boo's Quilted love stamp. Actually I have fallen in love with this design. That's so perfect for a background.

 I have taken a piece of Red Cardstock and stamped on with Peek-a-Boo's Quilted Love, finished it with white embossing.

Placed it keeping a gap in between and filled the same with skeleton leaves (#first time used) and a wired Butterfly mesh. The sentiments are stamped with Heidi Swapp.
Thats it. And It's done!

Have a look.

I hope you liked this simple and easy to make card.

Thanks for stopping by:)

Onset of spring

Hi there,

Next post is of a canvas that I have made. The ICR challenge says flowers with no cards so I thought what can be better than this one.

This canvas measures 18inches*16inches. Medium used acrylic only.

Have a look.

Spring love

Hi all,

Today I would like to post something other than card which I have tried in my leisure time.

That's a bottle.

A blue bottle which is commonly found. I have experimented it with acrylic colors and tried to give it a nice hue matching with the blue color of the blue and yes not covering the serene color of the bottle itself. And I have covered the top of the bottle with glitter laces.

Take a look.

I would like to share this with Indian craft Room for their March challenge:

Flutter design : Card + Tag

Hey all,

After my second post for this month , an experiment with the transparent colors, I decided to use the same for my third post for the month.

An easy making card with the transparent colors.

I started off the Fuji colors and giving it a water wash effect, leaving a little area for the sentiments to stamp on.

I have used two die cuts of butterfly designs in black and stamped on with Heidi swapp and did my own hand lettering too.

I made a tag also but this time a little different from the card design. I have used Bo Bunny Flutter design and perforated tapes to border it. For the sentiments I have used the AF345 Intense Black .

And here is the final look:)

Let's play with colors: card+Tag+Bookmark

Hey there,

I hope all my crafty friends have spent the weekend well :) I am here with a new experiment that goes with the season of colors.

For my weekend, I kept a set of three to experiment with- a card, a tag and a bookmark.

I first started with a card stock made of ivory paper and cut out a heart to mask it. After I made the heart stick with a tape I dug into my Fuji color stripes. These colors are so cheap, only for 30/- and being a Geography student I have been using it from years.

For this I have picked as many colors that I could, different from one another and made a water color washed effect. After it got dried I lifted up the masked heart and painted it black with my hand lettering on to it.

I have used Kaisercraft decorative Tape pieces stamp with different ink colors and complimented with bakery twine by Hampton Art.

For the tag and the bookmark I repeated the same technique of giving it a water washed effect after masking it with small heart pieces of paper. I have used the AF345 Intense Black for the sentiments.
I used Avery Elle's Lots of love design for these which is my persona favorite and embossed it black.

Take a final look:

Masked Colorful Card + Tag

Hi all,

Hope you are doing well. Its March and the start of numerous challenges. I have started my month with a simple and sober card which perfectly defines colors and yes the Spring - the blooming season.

So, I first started with Brustro Water Color Papers ( I love the pale off white color of the paper as i dont want it to be complete white). Then i took a scrap and I masked it making an alignment.

Then I started with mini Color box Pigment ink (green) and my all time favourite - We R Memory Keepers : Autumn Sayings stamp, and chose the leaf design.

I didnt think of the perfection this time and whatever it came instantly i just stamped on. And how can I forget Hero arts CS118 Kids Scented Ink Pad Bundle. I also used Itsy Bitsy Butterflies Clear stamp for the tiny flowers and leaves. I did almost all the ink colors that I could. :) After the random stamping, I lifted the scrap paper used for masking, and see how it looks.

I finished the coloring with sketch pens by Faber Castle and added the sentiment by Heidi swapp. (yes I have added my hand lettering too :P )

I have also added some 3D Fevicryl cone outlining for the drops.
For the tag, I repeated the same method and again the sentiment stamping by heidi swapp; finished it up with Lawn Fawn Bakery twines.

P.S.:- I added washi tapes inside matching it up with the floral design :)

Take a final look

I hope you liked it.
