MFT Sketch 333 and Color Challenge 69

Hi All!

This is the second card of the day I made for current MFT Sketch and Color challenge. Here is my card. It was a real challenge to combine both sketch and colors but I loved the outcome.

Here is the MFT Sketch # 333 and the color combos #69.

I had fun creating this card. I first did some masking to create the diagonal lines for the sketch by using some printer's tape and distress inks.
After creating the background, I diecut the word Hugs using MFT Big Hugs Dies. I cut multiple times from white cardstock for an added dimension. To give a shadow effect, I also diecut hugs from black cardstock and while stacking all the Hugs layers, I offset the black one a bit towards right.

The cute bear and dog image and the sentiment is from MFT Friends Furever stamp set. I added some sparkle using Spectra Noir sparkle pen.

That's it from my side today. I will back soon!

Happy Crafting!

My Favorite Things - Color Challenge 68

Hi Peeps!

This is my second card of the day. Yay! So glad that I was able to make 2 cards in a day. 

This one is based on MFT Color Challenge. Here is the color palette.

and here is my take on it.

For this card, I have used one of the cute bear image from BB Beary Special Birthday stamp set and made it the focal point of card. I colored it with Kuretake zig clean clear real brush pens.

The Banner die is from MFT again. But I guess it has been discontinued as I was not able to find its link.

The sentiment is from Big Birthday Sentiments stamp set. The papers are again from MFT. I have used Plaid Patterns Paper Pack and Dots & Stripes Confection Paper Pack.

I hope you liked this as well. Do leave a comment please! :D

MFT Sketch Challenge - Sketch 331

Hi All!

How are you doing? I am back again after a long break and hopefully I will stick around this time. Lot of things are happening  at the personal front which are keeping me busy. But I did managed to sneak out some time to play along latest MFT challenges and made 2 cards; one each for Sketch and Color challenge!

First up is card for sketch challenge.

Here is the MFT sketch number 331.

and here is my interpretation.

I made a shaker card with a cute unicorn flying in the sky full of clouds. The unicorn, cloud/rainbow image and the sentiment is from MFT BB Magical Unicorns stamp set and colored the images with Kuretake zig clean clear real brush pens.

For the clouds I used one of the three dies from MFT Die-namics Stitched Cloud Edges. This time I used pattern papers lavishly as I newly bought 2 paper packs from MFT :D

Here I have used Dots & Stripes Sorbet Paper Pack and Dots & Stripes Confection Paper Pack from MFT again. The stripes and dots are so gorgeous over yummy colors. I am totally in love with these papers!

Here is a close up of shaker component. The acetate sheet and sequins are from a local store.

I have mentioned all the supplies with the links. In case you have any question/comment, please leave a comment.

Have a great day!

MFT Challenge (Color + Sketch)

Hi All,

I am playing along this whole month with The Daily Card maker 30 days February 2016 coloring challenge. We are supposed to color each day even if it's a tiny image. Just 5 mins is enough! So lots of coloring and crafting is happening on my table.

I made the card that I am sharing today using MFT products. The colors in the coloring challenge caught my eyes and the sketch was super. Here is my card.

I have used MFT Patterned Triangles Background stamp, Scribbled Roses dies and Totally happy stamp set. I heat embossed the background with white embossing powder and colored with various distress inks. Don't ask me which ones I used as I didn't had the colors, I just mixed various colors to get the colors as close to color palette of the color challenge.

Here is the color palette of challenge number 38 as well the Sketch for sketch challenge # 226

Here are the links to both the challenges :

1. My Favorite Things - Color Challenge # 38
2. My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge # 266

I hope you liked the card. I would love to hear from you. Please leave a comment if you liked it.

Thank you! And happy Crafting!

AlteNew one layer CAS cards

Hi All,

Quickly sharing a set of cards I made. I love making multiple cards as supplies are already out and if design cane be mass produced nothing like it. I wanted to use AlteNew Painted flowers stamp set and also wanted to try stamping on colored cardstock. So I made 11 one layer cards at once. Misti reduced the time I needed to try multiple color combinations by many folds. I totally love my Misti tool. Even to stamp a little sentiment, I use Misti.. :P

I first selected my colors for the cardstock. I love the PTI cardstock as it's thick and comes in lovely colors. Then I selected by inks. Basically I used 3 sets of inks; reds, blue and yellows...  and decided which cardstock will go with which family of inks..

Since it's colored cardstock, I first stamped the base flower stamp with white ink. It helps in bringing out the true color of inks. I used Misti to prepare the design and stamped the base flowers on the cardstocks.. Then I went ahead to stamp rest of the layers..

Since there is nothing much do to on one layer cards, I added a border by using MFT basic stitched lines. I love this die set too.. It comes as a set of 6 with different designs. I hope you liked the cards.

I want to play along with following challenges :

1. Simon Says Stamp - Something New - Used my new Painted Blooms stamp set from AlteNew

2. A blog named hero - One Layer

3. CASology - Simple

4. Seize The Birthday - Anything Goes (All are birthday cards. You will never have enough :) )

5. Paru's Card making challenges - Keyword "NEW"

Thank you and have a great day!
