Altenew One stamp Set - Dodecagram - Celebrate

 Hiii,

This is yet another card which I made for a friend.

I loved how simple this card was to make and yet the final look of the card is mind blowing.

To create this card, I heat embossed the image from Altenew's Dodecagram in Ranger's liquid platinum. I then used 2 colors of Distress Inks - Mustard seed and spiced marmalade. I sponged the colors alternately with the mini distress ink blending tool. To blend the ink, I used my mister generously. To finish the card, I added the sentiment which was heat embossed on a black card strip and used a lot of sequins of the same colors (yellow and orange).

Hope you like the card.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Love
Dolly

Altenew One stamp set card - Laceup

Hello again, 

This is the second card which I created. I used the Altenew's lace-up stamp set for this. 

I will be entering this card for Altenew's october-challenge-from-the-craft-room. 

Here's my stamp set :) which I love dearly!

I have taken a couple of pictures once again to describe how I went on to create this card:

1. To start with I used a A2 sized side folding card. 

2. I used the small heart image from the stamp set to create a small area of background. I stamped the image with Versamark ink and used the Liquid platinum embossing powder from Ranger's for embossing. To heat set this I used my Heat gun. 

 3. To add a little bit of interest to this I sponged some antique linen (once again :P ) on top of the embossed hearts

This is how it looked once I was done with the distressing.

 4.  Now coming to the image: I used some red cardstock from my stash and the lace up image form the stamp set. 

I stamped the image with Versamark ink and used the clear embossing powder for this tone on tone look. The image was heat set. I wanted to use the image in a different way, so I cut the pattern into 2x2 inch, which was further divided into 4 parts (each 1x1 inch ). 

I used foam tape to give the image some dimension and adhered in to my card in a diagonal manner. 

 5. I used the sentiments from the stamp set - "you are made of awesome". And to finish the card off, I sprinkled some random sequins!

That completes the look !

Some close up shots!  Hope you like the card. Thanks for reading!

Love,

Altenew One stamp set Card - Dodecagram

 

Altenew - One of my Favorite Stamping Company. I just love the designs created by Jennifer and Tasnim!

So, here I am with my cards made over this weekend. 

I started with Altenew's Dodecagram stamp set. The possibilities to use this stamp set is endless. Its a gorgeous collection of geometric designs which can be used for any occasion.

Here below, you can see my stamp set :D

I have a quick step by step guide with some pictures which I took while creating the card:

1. To start with, I used a pre-folded A2 sized card.

2. To create a subtle background, I opted to use the small triangle in the stamp set with some Antique linen distress ink. I just love the soft effect of this color on cards. It not very overbearing and yet is very distinct, I stamped the image in opposite directions to create a pattern. 

3. To create the focal image of the card, I stamped the geometric image a couple of times (4 or 5 times) on a blue card paper with Versamark ink and used the Ranger's white embossing powder which I later heat set with my heat gun. 

I fussy cut 4 pieces and adhered them together to create a bigger image and liked how it looked now. 

4. I used some bakers twine to create a backdrop for my focal image to rest on.

 5. To finish the card, I used some double sided foam tape to adhere the image on top of the bakers twine. I also added some sequins in dark brown from my stash to give the final touch :)

I though a lot about adding a sentiment in the card somewhere, but I liked the card this way and dint want to add anything else. 

Hope you like the card !

Watercolor background - Happy Anniversary

Hey All, 

This card was made from the color combo inspired by Gayatri. I Loved this combination. :

Here is my take on the challenge. I watercolored the and kept the focal element of the card as the Embossed sentiment from W&W :). To finish off the card, I added a couple of gold strip to complete the look. 

Lemme know what you think of the final results
