♥ Happy New Year 2016 ♥

       Good day ♥

       Today I made a bunch of cards for New year!
       And since I had to stamp repetitively I missed having a MISTI tool but still I managed to put them all together somehow!!
       So coming to my cards, I already planned about using the ICR Coasteride Recipe as my theme & since it's a new year card, I chose a floral bunch as the main focus.

       So initially I used Altenew Vintage Roses stamp set to stamp few roses using Distress inks.

       Then masking part of the roses, stamped the leaves using DI again.

       Embossed the sentiment using Golden tinsel embossing powder ♥♥

       Added a handmade rose, made using golden ribbon & few sequins. 

       Sponged the red DI around the edges to finish my card.

       On the inside used Kaiserkraft stamps to create a border & stamped the sentiments, in colors matching the front panel!!

       I'm glad how it turned out ♥
       AlteNew Vintage Roses is my most favorite ♥♥♥

My first ATC ~ Shine On ♥

       Good day friends!!

       Today I am sharing here the first ATC I ever made ♥

       Thanks to Halak Shaw for giving such an awesome opportunity ♥♥

       So this is what I did. Took a 3x4 inch Iris SG white card stock & pasted a same size blue Pearlized card stock on it. Then cut a Linen card stock  a bit smaller than that & cut 3/4th of a circle towards the bottom to create a flap!!

       Then I went on with the main focus of the ATC. Cut a circle out of SG white card stock, colored with Distress inks & gave a coat of Distress glaze. 

       Then I applied some Ranger embossing paste to create the snow line.

       Used 3D glitters to add some pine trees.

       Used Liquid platinum embossing powder to add some glitter to the sky & the snow line. Then put it all together to make the card& added a sentiment to the inside of the flap!!

       Some more shots for you people ♥♥

Keep Sparkling ♥ Snow flakes & Glitter ♥

       Hi friends, Good day!!

       After a short gap, I'm back again with a new festive card I made for my crafty friend!!

       Before we get into that, I got these awesome stamps from Varna's Creation & I had to use them somewhere. So here we go ♥♥

       I stamped the snow flakes on the back of blue glitter paper & fussy cut them. 

       Used White & Liquid Platinum embossing powder to emboss those flakes on the front!!

       Used various shades of blue Distress ink to color a linen white card stock & added few drops of water to make the ink react with it.

       Used Liquid Platinum embossing powder to emboss some tiny flakes onto the card stock.

Pasted those 3 glitter flakes in a triangular pattern.

       Used alphabets from Itsy Bitsy & sentiments from Varna's Creations to emboss on a vellum strip.

Added the vellum strip & a bow to finish the front of my card.

       Used distress colors & white embossing to decorate the inside of the card..
