Feel Better Soon

Hi There! I've been little busy setting up new routine with my little one and also took some time (days :P) to clean up my workspace. I'm glad to be back again with this floral card which I made for the Altenew - March 2018 Inspiration Challenge. This is my first time taking part in Altenew challenge. I've fell in love with the color choice by Virginia with the beautiful click from her recent trip. Here is my take!

I used Altenew - Floral Motif stamps set for this card along with some distress inks. I used masking technique to create the layers of flower and leaves. I stamped and heat embossed the images with gold embossing powder and colored them with distress inks. Next, I used the MFT Wonky Stitched Frame die to cut out the panel and adhered it on a kraft base card.

I stamped the sentiment on a black card stripe and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder and layered it on a kraft card stripe. I finished off the card by adhering the sentiment using foam adhesive. Coloring flowers has been always a great challenge for me. I'm so happy to achieve something out of my comfort zone and I love how this card has turned out. Hope you like it! :)

I’m also entering this card into the following challenges...
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Floral Frenzy
HLS March Watercolour Challenge

Thanks for stopping by! I hope to have productive crafty days! 😌
Hugs! :)

Get Well

Hi! I made this card today to get some creative mojo flowing. It's been a while since I touched my quilling kit. I was little confused whether to use quilled elements or buttons... but for some reason I ended up using both. It's not exactly what I had pictured in my head. Well, this sometimes happens! The reason is because I desperately wanted to use the leaf stamp because it's just so cute. So, I used buttons to pop out like flower buds and stamped the flower image on the background. Then I made a small quilled butterfly and attached above the sentiment. Little messed up though! But, I'm still happy with what I have done :) I used Freshly Made Sketches sketch and the colors from the Color Throwdown challenge. Here is my card!
