I'm Stuck On You

Hello friends! It’s a great challenge to make a CAS + one layer card. But that’s the fun! So many ideas popped up while making this card. Well, it really didn’t take much time either. Here’s my card.

I used the colors from Color Throwdown challenge and cute cactus plants from Lawn Fawn - Stuck on You stamp set on this card. The pots and plants are stamped with the MISTI stamping tool using dye inks. It turned out so vibrant after several times stamped using MISTI. Love MISTI! :) It’s my new favorite toy!

The sentiment is from the Lawn Fawn - Stuck on You stamp set and I add the block letters from Ms.Sparkle & Co alphabet stamp set. I tied on some twine on the top of the card. Finished off by adding some dimensional dots from EK Success - Rainbow Dots.

Linking the card in the following challenges:

Miss you!

Hello! Today, I have made a card inspired by the color palette from Lawn Fawnatics challenge. Love the bright summery colors and here is my take.

I created a cute scene using Lawn Fawn - Home for the Holidays stamps set. I colored the car with distress ink and did layer stamping on the trees using Memento inks. The sentiment is from Papertrey Inks - Phrase Play #3 stamps set. Hope you like this cute miss you card. Happy crafting!

Miss You Like Crazy

Hi all! I'm back with a Miss You card. Not only miss you...It's "Miss You Like Crazy"! Such a fun and cute sentiment. I was inspired by this week's Freshly Made Sketches sketch and the colors from Color Throwdown challenge. So here is my take...

I inked my base card using distress ink with two different blue/turquoise tones and allowed it to dry. Then, I pulled out some lovely grid patterned papers from the Simple Stories Snap! Life Basics paper pad to ink up the sentiment. I'm a big patterned paper lover and I'm so attracted to the bold and bright colors of this paper pad. There are also lots of other cool, trendy and vibrant patterned papers from Snap! Life collection such as dots, stripes, mini calenders and etc. Totally awesome!

Next, I simply stamped the sentiment on three different colors of grid patterned papers. Then, I cut the letters out and adhered them nicely on a piece of gray colored grid paper. I made a small arrow with a little heart shape on it and placed it on top of the card. I thought it would be cool to use a paper clip to hold the layers together. So I tried that and it looks so perfect!. As a final touch, I added glossy accent to the cute little hearts and some white gel pen stitch lines to frame the sentiment.

I'm also linking up my card at the Simon Says Stamp challenge which is "Anything Goes".

Thanks for stopping and have a nice weekend!

Miss You!

Hello! I am back with another card for this week Freshly Made Sketches by Rita Wright. It's a wonderful blog with extremely talented ladies on board, and I am really happy participating in their sketch challenge every week. I am inspired by all the other beautiful entries. Such a great site!

Here is my take on this week's sketch!

I am glad to make this card because it's little different from the usual card that I make. Yes, I have added some paper roses to create some 3D effect :) This is the first time I ever made roses using paper and I guess it turned out well! I used to make roses out of ribbons during my school days. I was so excited to make one after a long time. Well, for this card, I heat embossed the roses with white glitter powder to make it little shiny over the petals. The rest of the stuff are pretty simple - "Miss You" sentiment, two gold brads on the corners, and lovely swirls to finished off the card.
