CAS-ual Friday's Stamps September Release - Day 6

Hello friends! Today is the final day of September release at CAS-ual Friday's and I hope you enjoyed my creations as much as I did making them.  Today we are showcasing the Co-ordinating Fri Dies called "Hanukkah" for the Stamp set "8 Happy Nights" and you will love these dies!!

So here's are my cards... I ended up creating two cards, one showcases my love for distress inks and another showcase stamping and fun design :)

To make this card, I die cut the stars. I decided to use the 3rd largest star in the set of 5. First I inked the panel with Distress inks starting with the darkest shade of blue on the edge and working my way in with the lightest. Did some water splatter. Next I laid the stars such that 3 stars made a hexagon. This was done in random fashion. Finally I heat embossed the sentiment from Hanukkah set. Hope you like it.

My second card is pure stamping delight. I so enjoyed making this one too :)

To make this card, I stamped the sentiment in rainbow colors. Also die cut the driedel, stamped and colored it. Next I cut out a circle on card base and adhered the driedel with foam dot creating Hanukkah star :) I am sharing this with Crazy for CAS #53 and NBUS #2. I am sorry Darnell if I have entered too many cards but I coudn't help but sharing it all LOL

CAS-ual Friday's Stamps September Release - Day 5

Hello friends! It's day 5 of September release at CAS-ual Friday's and my excitement is still on. Today we are showcasing the new stamp set and coordinating dies called "Sleigh Bells and Bell tag Fri-Dies" You will love it even more after seeing all the inspiration from the team :)

So here's my card...

I rarely, use patterned paper, this is something that I need to work on. I am usually experiencing a hard time using them. So, I decided to use patterned paper for this card. To make this card, I die cut the bells from Echo Park Getaway paper pad. Then I stamped the bells over it. Next I fuzzy cut the extra edge showing beyond the stamped image. I also did some paper piecing. Then I cut out the leaves from the patterned paper of the same pad using Stalk Up Fri-dies. Next I tied the bells with twine. Adhered all the elements on the card base . I hope you liked it!! I am sharing this at Virginia's View #7 - Patterned Paper, A Blog Named Hero #52 - Patterned Paper and Time Out challenges - Double the joy!  TOC are running this surprise extra challenge for Bev who recently became mom to twins Josh and Ben. Congratulations Bev!!

CAS-ual Friday's Stamps September Release - Day 4

Hello friends! It's day 4 of September release at CAS-ual Friday's and my excitement doesn't seem to go down. Today we are showcasing the new stamp set called "Pinecones" and who doesn't love pinecones be it on cards or as a decor in the house or even those that have fell of from the trees :)

So here's my card...

To make this card, I decided to go with a more subtle and elegant look with the pine cones. First, I lightly marked the vertical panel on the card base, then stamped the pine leaves. Also, I stamped and fuzzy cut the pine cones. Next I masked the vertical panel inked it with Distress ink Antique Linen and adhered all the elements on the card. To add more character to my design, I added twigs I collected for one of the home decor project. I hope you liked it!! I am sharing this at Sketch Saturday #327 and Christmas Card Challenge #42

ATSM #113 - Holiday and Happy Birthday Bev!!!

We are back with another amazing challenge this week at Addicted to stamps and more... HOLIDAY which opens up a wide range of ideas, from projects for any festive holiday or for some holiday destinations or whatever comes to your mind when you think about holiday... There are numerous possibilities. Now to my DT card, I went with the Christmas theme for my Holiday card...

To make this card, I scored the card base at 1 cm marks. Then I stamped the candles from STAMPlorations Holiday Sketches - Christmas candle set and colored it with markers. On the card base, I added a strip of washi tape and sentiment over it. Next I adhered it all on card base along with some sequins. I am sharing this at Word Art Wednesday #149 - Anything Goes!.
