And today I would be featuring a new card.




To make this card , first stamp using STAMPlorations In Bloom- Calssic Calla Lillies and Morning Glory-Large. 

Then stamp a script stamp using Old Paper distress ink over this for double stamping..

Later, I highlighted and shaded the flowers using distress ink to add some depth. I fuzzy cut the images.

The background is smooshed with these inks over the water color paper. The stamped sentiment is from STAMPlorations The Birds and the Blooms.

I adhered these stamped flowers over the card and was done. Easy?

Birthday Elements!

Heyyaaa Dear Friendssss!! :)

Happy Friday to you all! I am back and this time with a Birthday Card! 

If you are looking for my Giveaway, find it HERE!

I made this card using STAMPlorations- Party Mates stamp set. I had this set on my wishlist since like ages! But finally, I got my hands on it! :)

I started by masking the gift boxes and stamping them one besides the other as shown. Then, I stamped over another panel with Chocolate stamps and cupcakes- all the cute little things! I colored this pane using Hickory smoke distress ink.

Later on, I colored these elements using distress inks (rainbow colors) and stamped the sentiment using white pigment ink. 

I must say that if you know basics of stamping well by now, MISTI can take the quality of stamping to a whole other level. Your stamping gets precise and very clear. :)

"Hoppy Birthday" Frogs!

Helloooo Ladiess!!! :)

I am having fun with my new stamp set and decided to make one more card using Jane's Doodles "Garden Friends"!

Here is my card-

I stamped those frogs (aren't they cute? ) , colored them using distress inks and fussy cut them. The card base was stamped using STAMPlorations Vignette Retro Mod shapes (U bet! I ADORE this stamp! And am going crazy using it! ;) ) I have created a Bokeh effect for the background. 

I have adhered those frogs and the balloon using double sided glue tape. The balloon is from Dee's Artsy Impression - Balloons and banners. The one frog who has elevated is the one I have colored differently than the other two! ;)

I played along Time Out Challenges # 47- Birthday with an optional twist of sponging
