Paper crafters unite against racism

 Hello friends,

This card was created for #papercraftersuniteagainstracism Hop!! If you are on Instagram, do check out.

The goal of this hop is to continue to raise awareness about anti-racism; to stand with our BIPOC friends and family, and to keep encouraging everyone to start the necessary conversations. We are all one humanity and should find a way to #showup for equity and equality, in a way that makes sense for YOU.

Silence, Inaction, and Passivity are detrimental to justice.

This card features girls from Unity Stamps. The background is made using stencil by Craftangles. The sentiment is hand written.

Tweet heart

 You are a tweet heart 💓

 When I saw these birds 🐦🐦 by Varada Sharma, Valentine's day cards came to my mind immediately. So I just flipped the image to make a mirror image, and likewise for the tree branch and placed them as per my wish to fit into a vertical card front.

It took me a long time to trace and cut each bit and masked it. Then we did ink blending for the clouds. Once, we removed the mask, we colored the branches, leaves and birds. 

Finally, adhered it to the card base and phew, our card was ready!!

Valentine Day card

Hello friends,

 My heart ❤️💘 is wherever you are....

With Valentine's Day around the corner and card challenges having a theme around the same, we were tempted to make one. So, used this cute lil pug from Sugarpea Designs to make this card. As the stamp outline was too thin to fussy cut, we stamped it onto watercolor cardstock, cut using a heart die and colored it.

We die cut the word XOXO using our brand new die by Dress My Craft, did ink blending in ombre manner. We die cut the banner die on a scrap piece of black cardstock and heat embossed the sentiment. The strip of pattern paper is a scrap, which was left over from making album last year. Once we were satisfied with the placement of elements, we adhered it to finish the card!!

Supplies used:

Sugarpea Designs stamp set

DMC alphabet dies

Craftangles heart nesting dies

Itsy bitsy banner die

Happy New year

 Hello friends,

Sharing a New Year card with you. There's a mistake in this card. But, we didn't have heart to do it again. Scroll down to find out.

For our card, we have used Varada Sharma December release- Just for you and Happy New Year 2021 set.

Cheers to a New Year and let's pray that it brings us new opportunities and beginnings!!

Okay, so the mistake is that, it is a wine glass, so the drink should have been in red color, but we colored it green. We have limited knowledge about alcohol and glasses. 😅

Have a great day!
