Post 372: Cute CAS Christmas Card (penguin)

Hi friends!

I'd like to share a cute Clean and Simple Christmas Card I made. This was for a Guest Design Post at Tubby Craft Stamps. All the details are here. For this CAS card, I stamped the Penguin from the Tubby Craft Penguin Love Stamp Set onto a snippet of Canson Watercolor paper, colored it with prisma color pencils and then fussy cut the image. Further, stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, on the kraft cardbase and foam mounted the image. Then added a few snow-like dots with a white gel pen. In the end, added a few silver sequins & silver stickles.

Here is a photo of the card:

Hi friends :)

I'd like to share a card today. This was made for a Guest Design post for Craftreat. All the details can be checked out here. I'm slowly sharing the projects on my blog as I get the time. 

In this Clean & Simple Card, I used a part of the lotus mandala stencil to form the petals of the stamped flower. Wanted a soft look so used brushes to add ink through the stencil. Then created some black ink splatter for interest. The sentiment reads, "next to you is my happy place"

Post 256: Thanks Card

Hi friends :)

How are you this Sunday afternoon? I'm still not fully awake :p even though I have been up for quite some time. Feeling tired and there is nothing I would like better than to get back to bed and just sleep for a couple of days and wake up all refreshed!! So I thought I would share a card on my blog :) This is one of the cards I made while Guest Designing for CrafTreat Stencils, you can check out the whole post here.

I really love the design of the mandala stencil so I've just spread some modelling paste through the stencil onto the Kraft card panel which was later distressed to give a vintage look. I kept the design simple so that the focus was on the mandala design. I love the color combo of kraft with white, its really pretty. I added a bit of jute twine as an embellishment to keep with the simple look. In the end, I added a few dots to the design with white acrylic paint to accentuate the mandala design. 

List of Supplies:

Craftreat Mandala Stencil

Cutplorations Thanks Word Die 

Kraft and White Cardstock 250 gsm

Jute Twine

Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue 

Prima Marketing Modelling Paste 

Palette Knife

White Acrylic Paint

Brushes

Here are a couple of photos of the card:
