Beautiful Day card

Hello everyone,

 Colors at March Inspiration Challenge were vibrant and cheerful that we couldn't resist but make a card!! So, grabbed our favorite stamp from @altenew Beautiful Day and made this!! For the background, we masked to give it a framed look and stencilled with 2 colors.

Once we were happy with the arrangement, went ahead and adhered it to card base. Finished off with sentiment!!

We are happy with the outcome! 

Any tips for floral arrangement are welcome!

Happy birthday Waffle Flower

Hello everyone, 

We haven't played with these little kids from Waffle Flower Hello stamp set for quite some time. When we saw the theme at Waffle Flower, our hands were itching to make a birthday card. We love rainbow colours, so thought why not incorporate rainbow pattern paper that we bought some time back. 

Subhashini always wanted to make kids around a frame. Finally, we put that idea into action. We are happy with the outcome. To add some interest, we stuck the panel at an angle. 

Ain't the sentiment perfect for a birthday card!

Holi- art journal

Hello everyone,

We are back with one more mini art journal page. This time, the theme is Holi- an Indian festival. 

Holi- Commonly known as FESTIVAL OF COLOURS, celebrated on full moon day of last month of Hindu lunar calendar.

Commonly celebrated by burning Kaam/Manmatha to ashes, and people play with colours in joy. 

Kaam is symbolic representation of our desires and the tale around this festival says that God of destruction and God of mind Shiva burns Kaam (our desires) to ashes by meditation. Once all desires are destroyed, a new life begins which marks Chaita Yugadi, which is aligned with positive climate changes in India, end of winter and start of Spring with new leaves. So, the festival of Holi is to burn old desires and welcome new year with playing with colours. 

Also, in earlier days colours made with natural pigments like turmeric, beetroot, leaves etc, the reason to nourish the skin and to prepare it for upcoming hot summer and keep away skin allergies. 

Food is another vast topic related to Indian festivals, but I am sure there is some scientific reason for each preparation related to each festival.

Supplies:

Craftyscrappers Holi stamp set

CrafTangles Color mist- Soulmate and Limelight

Script stamp that was gifted

White gelly roll

Inky Friday Ft. Varada Sharma

Hello everyone,

 Let's get inky!! When it comes to playing with inks, I wouldn't mind getting inky fingers 😋 Did a quick stencilled background for this week's inspiration using @varadasharma Freesia Portrait stamp.

In our limited coloring experience, we felt blending purples is tougher than other colors🎨🖍️, have you also felt the same. Glad, dot coloring came to our rescue. Whenever I feel intimidated to color any floral image, I instantly think of dot coloring, what do you do in such cases, share your tips and tricks in the comments below 👇

Smile watercoloured floral card

 Hello everyone,

Sharing a floral card today.

This watercoloured panel look many days to complete. We did the stamping to make border on top and bottom. We have never colored the outside of flowers in our card before, though we wanted to do. But we feared we might mess up, glad we gave it a try this time. Hope to improve the next time. 

We used floral stamp set by Peek-a-boo Designs. The brand is no longer running. We love adding vellum as it gives a muted look. The smile die is by pink fresh studios.

Entering the card into the following challenges:
