Birthday Card

 

Hello crafty friends!

I'm sharing a birthday card in today's post. 

I had this stencil from kaiser craft in my stash and I never got a chance to use it. Used it today and created a background with distress inks. I stamped & coloured the Birthday cake (Reverse confetti) and die cut the stamped image. 

The sentiment is from MFT. Added some vellum and embellishments as well. 


Playing along with:

Timeoutchallenges #231 (Inspired by the colours & the stenciling technique)


JAI638 (Chosen elements: Candles & Cake)





Thanks so much for stopping by!

    What a great birthday card. Love your ink blending and color choices. It was a great idea to use the vellum behind the candles - makes them stand out. Thanks so much for playing with us at Time Out.

CAS bday card

Image
 Hello friends! Happy Monday!  I'm back with another birthday card today and I'm playing along with a few challenges. The pattern on the moodboard at inkspirational challenge took me to a kaiserkraft stencil in my stash. I used the stencil and distress inks to create the stenciled pattern at the center of the card. I sprayed some water over it to allow the distress inks to react. I adore butterflies and I wanted to use them as an element of freedom for the ATCAS challenge. I heat embossed a butterfly image with a contrasting embossing powder- color blend verdigris from WOW, so that it stands out against the stencil pattern. I placed the stamped sentiment (kaisercraft) at the centre. Playing along with the below challenges: Inkspirational Challenge #290 Seize the Birthday #262 ATCAS #238   HLS may birthday Thank you very much for stopping by. I would love to know your thoughts about my project. Stay safe and take care. ~Ana

AAA birthday Game #50- GD post

Image
Hello lovely friends!  I'm delighted and honored to be guest designing at the AAA Birthday challenge blog this month.   The theme for this month is 'Water colours' and here is my card: I used the flora background stamp from simon says stamp. I heat embossed it using versamark and WOW white embossing powder. I used zig clean brush pens to watercolour the image.  I wanted the sentiment to stand out on the busy and bright background. My first instinct was to place vellum underneath the sentiment. But the background did not mellow down enough with 110gsm vellum I used. So, I stamped the background image on cardstock, lightly watercoloured it and die cut a circle which I placed beneath my die cut sentiment from simon says stamp. I had so much fun creating this card. I would love to know what you think of it.  Do join this fun challenge and remember- birthday cards only.   You can find all the details on the blog  here . Happy crafting! ~Ana

Bday Card- Majestic Blooms

Image
Hello Crafty friends! Here's my recent project- I used Altenew Majestic Blooms stamp set for my card. I stamped this beautiful flower with Versamark and heat embossed using Rangers Gold embossing powder .  I added color with Alcohol markers and fussy cut the image. T he gold embossing powder seemed pretty dull as  I ended up coloring most  of it  with the alcohol markers. T o restore the gold shine  I  lightly highlighted the embossed outline with  Zig painty  marker . I stamped the leaves with versafine ink and coloured them with Zig clean brush pens. For the background, I made a horizontal line using floral die cuts over a white card panel. I then stamped little pink leaves and placed an oval scalloped die cut  and added some ink splatter as well.  I wanted to keep the sentiment simple, so used this one from  MFT .    Playing along with:     Just add ink #642 Cupcakeinspirations #563         Timeout challenges #233
