CAS Card-Sending Gratitude

Hello friends

Today we have a CAS card to share with you all.

We don't make CAS cards often, but admire the beauty and simplicity of them. We have used Sending stamp from Craftyscrappers. We have stamped the sentiment around the image in a frame to bring the focus to the image. We have cut the panel using decorative scissors. We are happy with the outcome.

Rinbow wiper card

Hello friends,

We are here with a Wiper card, using digi stamp from Oddball Art, that we won in a challenge. This card is based on the theme- Be Grateful. We have for the first time used all the colors of rainbow together in a card. This is the first time we have created a scene, we don't usually do that.

Wiper card

We punched out some flowers using a scrap piece of paper, and added tiny details using markers. We feel that those details on the flowers make them look realistic and lovely, don't you agree? Aren't those tiny birds and flowers adorable?

Magic Slider Card for Holi

Hello friends,

This project is a part of the DT inspiration post for Craftyscrappers month of March.
We have used Rang Barse stamp set from Craftyscrappers. This card perfectly fits for Holi- the festivel of colors, right!!

We have used this cute girl stamp as the focal point of our card and wanted to add a surprise element, hence thought of making Magic Slider card. Making the slider mechanism by hand without any dies is a task and needs lot of calculation and mind- boggling!!! We find it tough and decide not to do any magic slider cards in the future, but we somehow keep coming back to it (silly us). Does this happen to you as well?
You can check our previous magic slider card here.

We repeatedly stamped the color splashes to form pattern paper and mounted it on colored card base.

Our magic slider card is ready.

Surprise Slider Card

Hello friends

Back with one more greeting card using Craftyscrappers stamp- MAGICAL BIRTHDAY, we love this cute dragon. You can check our previous card using the same stamp here.

We have made a birthday card, who doesn't love surprises, right? We had surprise slider card in our to-do list for long, we finally made it. The gift is made using washi tapes and added a bow to complete the look (as we didn't have any pattern paper that would go well with this card or the color wouldn't suit with what we had in mind, then after breaking our heads for long, we thought to create pattern using washi tape from our stash. Don't you think washi tapes are cool?).

We are happy with the outcome.
