Let me show you the cards I created using the Big Owls set...

I made a winter scene for this cutie owl. I simply masked and inked. I stamped the image and did no line coloring for this owl. I find owls really cute and I can't get enough of this set :) Coloring was done using Prisma Color Pencils.

For my second card, I wanted to use all the owls to make a party :) I stamped these on a grey card stock and pencil colored them. I then fuzzy cut and layered them on grey card stock that made for my front panel. I stamped the the sentiment and added some white splatter.

Let me show you my fifth Inspiration project for July 2019...

This is one of my previous makes. I made this for Father's Day for my husband :) It's an interactive card that I learnt from super amazing Jennifer McGuire in one of her videos HERE. Instead of using a deer (as in the video) I popped up this little guy. For the front panel, I stamped the IloveDad in various shades of ink. Die cut a balloon and created the interactive element as in the video. Instead of the die she used, I used my E-xacto knife.

I have used Little Love Birthday Wishes, Strongest Dad Ever, Power of Words and Kathryn's Big Wishes Coordinating Dies
Here is a little video I made :)

Spellbinders - PA Scribe by Paul Antonio Collection

Hey friends! I am back with Spellbinder's goodness. Today I am sharing their newest Designer PA Scribe by Paul Antonio Collection If you love calligraphy, these designs will amaze you :) I am showcasing the following sets from this collection...Hi Clear Stamp, Shapeabilities Booklet Binding Etched Dies Set 

Here is what I created... For this gorgeous stamp, I had to keep it simple and make the sentiment shine. 

So I heat embossed the stamp in gold and then water colored the panel and did some texturing using an alcohol wipe. I also used some Delicata gold Ink and swiped it along the edges for gold details. I then added a sticker sentiment strip from Spellbinders Watercolor Card kit of the month

For my second card, I wanted to keep the design subtle and the card simple. So I took kraft card stock panel for my card base and did some watermark stamping using floral stamp set from the Spellbinders Watercolor Card kit of the month. I then die cut the frame in kraft and the inside of the frame from patterned paper from the same kit. To finish I added the sticker sentiment from the same kit :)

These are two unique designs and I had so much fun playing with these :)

I hope you enjoyed my creations, don't forget to check the PA Scribe by Paul Antonio Collection and Spellbinders for all the amazing products and inspiration. Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving me a comment :)

For my card I decided to combine two different stamp sets together to create something totally different from what these sets are intended to. I love when I can make good use of all stamp sets :) So I embossed the images in gold and water colored them with some pastel tones. I fuzzy cut and adhered them on patterned paper background. For sentiment I used a sticker :)

Addicted to CAS - Guest Designer

Hello dear friends! I am excited about this post as today I am Guest Designing for a challenge that was my very first Design Team. Addicted to CAS has been my favorite from the time I began crafting. I still remember when Kylie asked me to join the team. She is amazing and so is her awesome team. I won a challenge ATCAS #161 and I got invited to be their Guest Designer. Thank you so much Barb for all your help.

So the challenge is "HEAT"  and when I saw the code word all I thought about are the things I do in the heat and cool watermelon was one of them :)

I kept the design simple. I stamped the watermelon, fuzzy cut it and adhered it with foam adhesive. To add interest I tore the edge pf kraft card stock and layered it on green base. I also added some white splatter. To finish I stamped the sentiment. I have used Layered Watermelon and Little Love Birthday Wishes.

I hope you like my interpretation of heat. Can't wait to see what my creative friends will make with this code word :) Thank you so much Barb, Kylie and ATCAS Team for having me and thank you so stopping by and leaving me a comment :)

For my card I took a kraft card panel and stenciled some dots in white and pink inks I did offset the dots while inking by slightly moving the stencil. I stamped and water colored the flowers. I fuzzy cut these and adhered them on the panel. I used the stickers to make sentiment strips. I have used Smile, Make Marks Stencil - 5, New Day Clear stickers and Gansai Tambi Watercolors.
