All things grow with Love ♥

       Good evening friends!!
       Here I am, sharing a simple card today. Though it is a simple design, I drew a freestyle mandala drawing & I really enjoyed it 


     I decided to incorporate both the IndianCraftRoom & MHKDesigns theme into my card!!

ICR ~ Tic Tac Toe with a twist of Mandala!!



     Initially I wanted to go with the first row - Sparkle/ Bling, Ribbon & Stencil.
     But ended up using several of those!!
  • Sparkle/ Bling, Ribbon, Stencil.
  • Sparkle/ Bling, Love sentiment, Stitching.
  • Ribbon, Love sentiment, Heat embossing.
  • Stencil, Button/Flower, Stitching. 
     I just went crazy with the theme!!

MHKDesigns:



       Coming to my card, I drew a mandala on white card stock, used 3D glitter liners to outline the design & fussy cut my mandala 




       Then I sponged several colors of Distress ink on to the front of my card using a stencil (MHKDesign Color palette). Cut a banner out of white card stock, drew a stitched border using the same 3D liners. Then heat embossed my Love sentiment.
       Added a ribbon bow & button.




       Assembled the banner & mandala on the front to finish my card

  8. You actually drew that mandala!!! Wow! that is some serious talent!! I loved seeing the sketch version.. Also your card base is just beautiful..You plucked every color out of our challenge.. Excellent job!! I believe the background is sponged.. If so, fantastic job keeping everything crisp and clean... Love this card and thank you so much for joining us at MHKDesigns!! It was a pleasure to see your work.

    Cyber Hugs,
