Hello,

Sharing 1 stamp, 2 cards today using our all time favourite stamp by Waffle Flower Stamps. 😀

We had these pattern paper scraps left from another project and the size was perfect for the background. So, ta-da, we paired them and we have these cards ready! 😄

We kept the overall card design same for both of them and changed the sentiment and angle to give it a different look. 😉

In case, you liked the photography background we have used here, you can buy it here. Btw, it is a double sided background with white and black side. Isn't that wonderful!? 😄

Hello everyone,

Sharing inspiration for the October release by Varada Sharma. We used Welcome Fall digital stamp for making this.

We made an art journal page after a very long time. Our favourite part was making the background. It's fun to mix and play with colors. 

We did some ink smooshing on top of a sheet where had done stencil monoprint. Since the colors were very light, we added some more inks. We used dye ink pad and some brush pens (yellow and orange colors) for making the inky background. 

We're happy with the outcome. 😇  

In case, you liked the photography background we have used here, you can buy it here. Btw, it is a double sided background with white and black side. Isn't that wonderful!? 😄

Sharing a birthday theme card using an image that was stamped and colored few years ago. We are sure we are not alone in this situation.

While searching some images, we came across this puppy image from YNS.
