Dream Girl – Mixed Media Card

Hi Crafties!
I am back with another DT inspiration project for the ongoing Itsy Bitsy Blog Challenge #21 : Anything Goes with Little Birdie Metallic Wax.

You can find the post here.

We all have dreams! Dreams of soaring high, dreams of having it all…
Today I have a card that tries to illustrates those dreams!
This is my first ever mixed media card!

Read on further to know how I made it…
Lets begin!
Step 1:
On a 5.5 x 6 inches panel of Bright White cardstock, I used the Net stencil with Hot Pink Color Splash.
Step 2:
Next I cut a doily in half & then folded it again and adhered it on the panel.
Step 3:
I then used the Script stencil with Crackle paste on the top left corner and the bottom right corner of the panel for added interest.
Step 4:
After this, I glued mixed media strips as shown.
Step 5:
On this, I dabbed Copper Blaze Metallic Wax by Little Birdie. It is so smooth to use.
Step 6:
I also dabbed the Copper Blaze Metallic Wax on some gorgeous white handmade flowers by Little Birdie.
I then glued them down on the panel as seen below :
Step 7:
In the next step, I stamped the images from the Princess and Dragon stamp set. I colored these images with Color splash and Metallic paint.
Step 8:
I pasted these images with glue and some with foam tape to give dimension.
I also stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set and glued it on the panel. I distressed the sides of the panel with my scissors and also dabbed Copper Blaze Metallic Wax here and there.
I finally glued the panel to the card base. And my first ever mixed media is complete!
Hope you liked my card!

A Cute Birthday card

Hello Crafties!

I love cute critter images. Coloring them is also so much fun. They are the reason cute interactive cards can be made.

The cute kitty image is from the the Love and Hugs stamp set by Your Next Stamp.

I used distress oxides for the background.

The grass dieset is by Little Birdie from itsy bitsy.

The images are colored with inktense pencils.

The sentiment is by Concord & 9th.

Have a great day ahead!

Always Flowers!

Hello Crafties!

Flowers are always a good idea. That’s why I made a pop up box card full of flowers.

I used Pinkfresh Studio stamp set ‘Always Flowers’ for the same.

Below is the video of the card :

The base of the box card is created using the Scalloped Box Card dieset by Lawn Fawn.

I colored the images with my Koi watercolor set in warm hues. I then fussy cut the flowers and adhered them on the box card.

I watercolored the panels too!

The sentiment is by Your Next Stamp.

The individual flowers were adhered on strips of acetate. I also added 2 honey bees from the same set to resemble a garden.

I made this card for a friend.

Hope this card full of flowers made you happy.

I used different distress oxides for the background.

I started by blending Lucky Clover distress oxide on the outside in a circular motion. Followed by Peacock blue distress oxide and then Tumbled Glass distress oxide in the middle.

Lastly I used a bit of Black Soot distress oxide on the outer most part. I splattered white acrylic paint on the final outcome.

The interactive feature was inspired by my favorite Jennifer Mcguire! You can find her tutorial here.

I stamped, colored and fussy cut the images from the Out of this World stamp set by Lawn fawn.

The moon revolves along with the planets. I had such fun making this card. Hope you like it too!

Turnabouts All the Way!

Hi Crafties!

I am back with not one but four cards to share with you!

I have used different turnabout stamps by Concord and 9th.

This is the 1st card :

I have used the Dahlia turnabout stamp set and the color pallette from MFT color challenge #116.

I used the cross stitched square dieset by Little Birdie.

This is another card I made with same stamp set.

I cut the panel into four for added interest. And added details with a white gel pen.

This is the 3rd card :

For this card, I used the Wreath turnabout stamp set.

I love the color palette on this card!

The sentiment is by Your Next Stamp.

And this is the 4th card:

This card is made using the Triangle turnabout stamp set!

I used distress oxides for all the cards. They are so versatile to use. Just love them!
