VIDEO + Spellbinders February 19th 2018 Blog Hop




Hello :)
You must be here from the amazing Emily Leiphart's blog.
Welcome to Spellbinders Blog Hop.
We are featuring the following two collections today:

I will be using Die D-Lites on my projects and sharing a video for one of the cards.
First one features the Picket Fence Etched Dies and Dinosaurs Etched Dies.

Spellbinders Picket Fence Etched Dies and Dinosaurs Etched Dies | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

I just used the grass die from the Picket Fence Etched Dies. 

Spellbinders Picket Fence Etched Dies and Dinosaurs Etched Dies | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

I die cut the grass a few times in kraft and inked it with Gathered Twigs distress ink. After assembly, I added yellow and warm yellow paint splatters.

Spellbinders Picket Fence Etched Dies and Dinosaurs Etched Dies | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

For the dinosaurs, I inked a panel with Crushed Olive distress ink and die cut these cuties. Then I inked them with mowed lawn while the die was still intact. I added googly eyes to my cute dinos to make them even more cuter!
Those mountain are hand drawn and then cut very roughly.

For my background I used Gansai Tambi watercolours to make a night sky. Then I added clear Nuvo drops and lots of holographic glitter dots for the sparkle.

I am sure you have noticed the wonky sentiment. Well, I wrote that :p

Spellbinders Picket Fence Etched Dies and Dinosaurs Etched Dies | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

I really enjoyed making this. And how adorable are these dies?!

Next up. I have a video for this card :) This features the Hip Llama Etched Dies.
I know a lot of people keep asking how I do my rainbow watercolour background and I always say, "like everyone else". So if you want to watch me messily watercolour a rainbow, you now have a video :p

Spellbinders Hip Llama Etched Dies | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

This is the most coolest, awesomest Llama in the town. Have you ever seen one in sunglasses?
I bet you have not! His shades are glossy ;)

I will just share some shots with you here then you can watch the video.

Spellbinders Hip Llama Etched Dies | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

For the background I have used distress inks in Picked Raspberry, Peacock Feather, Crushed Olive, Mowed Lawn, Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade.

Spellbinders Hip Llama Etched Dies | Erum Tasneem | @pr0digy0

The sentiment bubble is hand drawn and the sentiment of course is handwritten.

I hope you liked both the cards. I swear, I had SO much fun making these.
