Hey you!

I have a doodlicious card for you today! It is based on the sketch at Skipping Stones and both the challenges Ujjwal is guest designing at (Yvonne’s and Crafty JC).

Here is my card:

My card is inspired by THIS card of Latisha Yoast.

The lines and the apple both are hand drawn. The sentiment is handwritten. The cute self adhesive rhinestone hearts at top right are from PIE LANE, you can visit their Facebook page HERE.

I have never used this embossing folder, it is way too small. The folder’s pattern ends way before the embossing folder ends. There was a mix up and I used this numbers folder instead of the one intended for this card. Both the Kraft layers are distressed with Color Queue lava black ink (almost drying out!). Hope you like my doodling!

My Dad is A Hero… and birthday RAK

Hello everyone!

Hope you guys are kickin! I have a masculine card for you today!! WOOT WOOT! Accomplishment! LOL and I have to show you my very first birthday RAK too. First on with the card which is based on the sketch at Card Patterns.

 

Can you see that the texty paper I have used is a actually from a newspaper? It is from the business section :P I have coloured and distressed the newspaper with watercolours and added faux stitching to it.

The stars you see are hand drawn, cut, coloured with gold marker, distressed with brown marker plus my good ol finger and then embossed!

I ran gold net and jute string behind the centre embellishment to comply with the sketch. The sentiment is the same one I gave as freebie in my last post. I think the sentiment is great for dads who are in Forces (armed, air, navy.. you get the point).

I have coloured over my printed sentiment (the bold words) with colour pencils to give it a stamped look. I have also added a few lines etc using Photoshop for a grungy effect.

 

BIRTHDAY RAK:

Now on to the RAK. Can you believe this is the first ever birthday RAK I got? And oh my, I felt so good.. SO GOOD!

Here is the card and stuff Spardha sent my way…

And sweet love from Shubhra

Thank you girls, you made my day! I can never thank you guys enough.

Hugs

Linky Party: Make it Monday

Colour Splash!

Hi everyone, the card that I have to show you today is based on the sketch at Mojo Monday and colour splash+no DP challenge at ICR.

                                                             

The flower is handmade and I have added a button as flower centre. I hope you can see the bow. The glittery ribbon used to tie the bow is also added underneath the shaded grey lace.

I have used both sides of the embossed panels. Ooh you can see me in the biggest rhinestone… ROFL I look like a cobra!

Flashback Friday 12.0 (summer colours)

Hi everyone! Hope all of you are well. As I am in no mood to make cards, I thought I’d play this week’s Flashback challenge which is to show your very first summer colour card.

I wanted a super quick and cute card, this is what I came up with back in October 2008. Nothing much to say about this card… back then I didn't have stamps and I drew everything myself, this doodling too is done by moi :) 

Playing in Flashback challenges has brought up so many things from the past… how I did almost everything from scratch and how much I used to doodle. Most of you, new followers, don’t know this… but I used to doodle a lot… drew several medallion designs too, will post one of the medallion cards soon.

That’s it for now!

happy crafting peeps
