For my first card, I went with a mixed media look by adding texture and water coloring. To finish, I added some black line details for some depth and dimension. To finish I added sentiment frame and wood veneer bird and twine :) I have used Lupinus Stencil and Flutter, Fluttery Dies 

For this one I wanted the stenciled background to be bright and kind of attract attention. So I inked this in primary colors blending together to make a rainbow background. For the focal image I stamped and pencil colored the flowers in grey tones :) and added the sentiment die cuts to finish. I have used Blossom Sprays #2, Big Hugs Phrase die and Molecules Stencil.

I loved playing with these new stencils. You can find more inspiration HERE. Don't forget to hop along and leave comment for a chance to win :)

SPELLBINDERS Card Kit of the Month - October 2018

Hello friends! I have been fortunate enough to be playing along with some amazing  Spellbinders products. Like the last month, I get to play with their newest card kit "October 2018 Card Kit of the Month", and share my creations with you. The theme for this kit is watercolor and all the products included in the kit follow the theme. You can find all the details about this fabulous club kit HERE

This kit comes with loads of products that you can combine to create quick, fun and fantastic cards. This kit includes card stock, 6x6 Paper pad, Epoxy stickers, a collection of stickers, Dies, Stamp set, Die cut shapes and a lot of embellishments. I have made quite a few cards... 

Let me show you what I made
For my very first card, I took the inspiration from the colors on the patterned paper included in this kit. I made this the base for my card design. Stamped and fuzzy cut all the images from the stamp set and arranged it on the card with some dimension :)
The dies included in the kit are so adorable. I decided to make this sweet little pink and white house. This involves pure die cutting and the arranging it :) The background is again the patterned paper from the kit. I think it makes for a perfect sky :)

The rest of my 5 cards are basically a combination of patterned papers and die cut shapes again included in the kit.
For this one I made together as the focal and built around it by adding various die cut floral shapes :)
For this card, I simply adhered these flowers on a blue background and used three sentiment stripes included to make layered sentiments. 
Who doesn't love the Mason jar??!!! So I had to include it too. Again I simple picked a combinations of gorgeous patterned papers to make my base and used the die cut shape for the floral mason jar, For the sentiment I added the transparent sentiment on top of the mason jar :)
Blue Flamingo!! I had to incorporate this one :) again I used patterned paper to make my base. Added the Hello tag with a twine and rest of the die cut shapes. To finish I added the beautiful sentiment sticker :)
For this one I got the idea of combining die cut circle sentiments with the circle patterned paper :) Its a pure delight to see how quickly these cards come through :)

All the cards are made using the products included in the kit, nothing from outside :) . I think this is an amazing kit that gives you a lot of possibilities. 
Hope you enjoyed my creations. You can find all the details HERE
