Halloween

 Good afternoon Ladies

I made this card for the Two old Bats Halloween Challenge.

My main colors were Orange and Black with the exception of grey for the bunny and my card base. I colored the pumpkin in orange color and i hope you can see it. I stamped bats on the top and near the sentiment and colored their wings in black. I tilted the sentiment to the left as I wanted it to align with the two bats.

Fruits in plenty

 Good afternoon ladies

This is the card I created for the Double D Challenge.

The fruits were colored using Derwent Inktense Pencils a gift from Darlene.  The fuits and platter dies are from Pink Fresh Studio Fruits from Fruitastic collection and the stand is from Sweet Treats collection. I die cut the stand thrice and pasted using liquid glue. I attached tiny gems to the strawberry as my white colour pen was not working. I pasted them using foam squares. I pasted the word Celebrate as the sentiment which cannot be seen properly[Sorry about it.]. I pasted the green stiped piece of paper to the card base and it was done.

Leaf it

 Good Afternoon dear ladies

I made this card by first creating a background with a leaf stamp. That was the only stamp which stamped clearly. I used the brown and green inks for it. Then I adhered a piece of green cardstock on which I stamped the same leaf twice. I stamped the sentiment in black and it was adhered tgo the background using foam squares.

Transportation

 Good Afternoon Ladies

Today I  did a one layer card for the Retro Rubber Challenge with the twist transport. The card is simple but I like it . The stamp of the bicycle is about three years old but I never got a chance to use it. It is an unbranded stamp. Thanks for the opportunity to use it.

Merry Christmas

 Good Afternoon Ladies

The final card

Before

Today I made a Christmas scene card which I am going to send for Multiple challenges. This is the first time I am doing it. I coloured and fussy cut the three images and attached to the card front using foam squares. I also attached the clouds which were cut from dies to the card front using foam squares. I colored the sky in blue. I didnt color the pants of the little girl and boy as I thought it would be too much. I stamped the sentiment to the card front and attached half pearls in red to give the christmassy feeling.I added layers of coloring to the pixie hats and added white splatters which are a little shiny.

Mixed media card a first

 Good afternoon friends

I did a mixed media card for the first time with inspiration from Darlene Pavlick. As  i didnt know how to do it I went our eternal friend You Tube and watched some videos. Then I jumped to do it as nothing can be done without experience. I did a mock project on a cardboard to see whether it collaborates. 

I applied home made Gesso to prime the card piece and added a book page which is very old, I scrunched the page and applied brown and gold ink to give it a vintage look. I touched the edges of the book page too. Then I pasted the flower which was also touched with brown and gold.  What is a flower without a butterfly. I die cut a butterfly and colored it in brown and gold and attached it.As I am  yet to own any stencils I found a piece of mesh clothwith small holes and applied it using brown and gold ink 

I colored the white twine in brown and tied a bow  I layered the sentiment Hugs and attached it to the card.

Mason Jars

 Good afternoon ladies

I made a card for the Double D challenge. 

First I used  an embossing folder and embossed the butterflies and flowers to the card base. I stamped the mason Jar and butterfly using black ink. I stamped the mason jar twice to get some depth. I colored some of the butterflies and flowers in Orange and black using the Derwent Inktense pencils a gift to me from Darlene. Thank you so much Dear Darlene. I tied a cream color ribbon as i did not have any twine in Orange. This card is for my Grand daughter as i miss her so much. Iam attaching a photo of her with a friend. My grand daughter is in specs.
