INKS, FEATHERS AND BUTTERFLIES

Hello dear friends, Martha Lucia here to share with you a fun selection of cards using different elements. Each of these card was created using different inks to create special effects. Let me show the first.

To create this card I used the Feather stamp set and the embossing technique. First I used the dry embossing over the second layer and I stamped the sentiment with heat embossing technique using Verdigris Embossing Powder. To complement the design I stamped two small feathers included on the same stamp set with the same embossing powder, fussy cut them with scissors, decorated them with gold metallic thread and paste over the dry embossing with dimensionals. Finally I pasted the decorated layer over the card base.

  My second card was made using the stamp set Indian Motif, one of my favorites. I stamped the main images with Kaleidacolor Ink to have the rainbow tones.

  I used Bouquet Kaleidacolor Ink for both images. I jut turn the images to have different tones. For the numbers I used the Numbers Dies with dark brown metallic card stock. The base and second layer of this card are very vanilla card stock and the second layer was pasted with dimensionals to have more high on the project.

  

  The third card is a butterfly card created with the fabulous stamp set Doodle Butterfly.

   I stamped one of the butterflies included on the stamp set using Crumb Cake classic Ink, the same color of the second layer. Then in a separate piece of Whisper White card stock, I stamped the bold butterfly using VersaFine Satin Red and Clear Embossing Powder and fussy cut this image with scissors. I pasted the butterfly over the layer  using dimensionals and stamped the sentiment with VersaFine and clear embossing powder. I pasted the decorated layer over the Real Red card base and decorated with a few rhinestones.

PABD cutting dies are very versatile and can be used to make some fantastic projects!

Today I'm sharing a card I created as per Challenge #11 specifications to welcome the new year.

Tip : Buying a number die is a great investment because you can use it to create custom birthday cards, new year greetings, save the date invites etc.!

For my project, the background was created using the abstract triangle stencil. Once I stenciled it in pink, I offset the stencil and stenciled it in yellow to give it that two-toned effect.

The dies that were used are :
Rounded rectangle dual stitched die
Numbers die and
Celebrate word die.

Apart from this, I used the gorgeous Rose Gold cardstock from PABD. (Seriously guys, this cardstock is a must. Absolutely gorgeous!)

Lots of gold and some glitter - October Release Inspiration

Hello everyone! It's Juhi with my second post for October. My first card is a birthday card for my daughter who is turning 5 in December.

To created the watercolor background, I cut out the number dies on masking paper and stuck them randomly on watercolor paper, leaving some space in the middle for the number '5'.

I then painted the background in pink and orange Gansai Tambi watercolors.

I peeled off the digits once the watercolor dried, some paint did seep under the digits giving the background a beautiful watercolor wash effect! I finally cut out the '5' in gold and stuck it along with some gold thread and sequins and also heat embossed the sentiment in gold.

I hope my daughter likes the card :)

I followed exactly the same process to make the watercolor background of this Thank you card.

Don't you just love the gold against the turquoise? I just love how this one turned out!

I used my favorite "Border Frenzy" die from the month's release. I just can't get enough of this die.....love how it lets you add interest without extra bulk, perfect for CAS cards.

I created the background by stamping the broad stripes from the "It's Plaid Time" set in white followed by red inks. I then added the fancy stitches with the "Border Frenzy" die.
For the glitter heart I used the "Shaker Love" Die.

Well that's it from me for now, I hope you find inspiration in my projects! Thank you so much for stopping by today.
