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!? 😄

Supplies used:

Welcome fall digital stamp 

MFT alphabet dies

White gel pen

Dye ink pad and brush pens 

Confetti stencil from Craftangles

This is a stamp called Coneflower. We have tried a different color combo this time compared to usual. Dark blue+ Gold color combo is new to us, though we have seen other card makers use this often. We used dark blue cardstock for the base and golden washi tape on the side. Added some gold glitter die cut for the sentiment. 

Do let us know what you think of our first attempt at this dark blue+ gold combo.

What's your go to on days you feel low!! For us, it listening to soothing music, and art of course!! 

There's something therapeutic about art journalling, no rules, it's all about going with the flow and enjoying the process. And we love adding inspirational quote (source: Pinterest). Used vellum to mute the background, and we love how it makes the black die cut stand out. Added white doodling to the background.

Thanks Floral Card

 Hello friends

Sharing a floral card. 

Time and tide waits for no one⏰⏳

Today's card is the slowest card we have ever made, can you guess how long it took us to make this one!! 

We had started coloring the image way back in Feb end, and left it halfway to complete later. While going through our stash recently, we realized that time had flown by, and it is already Nov end now 🤭 To prevent any further delay, we finished coloring it and embossed the sentiment stamp on vellum, ink blended and wrapped it around. Adhered it on a card base and tada, we finished it😀
