Ruby's Bridal Shower Blog Hop

Hello everyone!

If you just happen to stop by my  blog, know that today we are celebrating our friend Ruby's bridal shower papercrafter style!! YAY!!

Amy has been planning this for some time now and I hope Ruby you are enjoying the hop (along with everyone else).

Here is what I made for Ruby using the inspiration photo below:

I have used Altenew's Beautiful Day stamp set, I know Ruby loves Altenew! That is how we met on Instagram, via the Altenew hashtag! She made these incredible watercolored cards, I can never forget them!

I wish you lots of luck and good wishes for your future and hope you find your perfect mattress :p

Love you!

For my card I have used distress inks to watercolor the flowers and leaves which are gold heat embossed. Fussy cut them out, layered the pieces on top of some more stamping.

Everything is gold heat embossed (except for the sentiment) if you cant tell.

Whats a hop without some prizes eh?

Winners will be selected from the comments across all of the blogs in the hop!  Commenting will close on Saturday, October 22 at 11:59 pm pacific.  Winners will be posted on Amy's blog on Sunday, October 23rd.

Papericious - Add Some Fabric

Hello everyone!

Today is my first post for Papericious! This month's challenge is to use Fabric in your creation.

Here is what I made.

The paper, sequins and jute twine that I have used on my card are from The Wedding kit.

The two main, big roses are handmade from scratch.

I have used quite a lot of fabric, both in form of twine, thread and net. Also added a lot of texture using gesso, texture paste and glitter.

Sentiment is by Altenew.

Dies by Memory Box, Cheery Lynn Designs and Provocraft.

I hope you like it. Join us at Papericious blog to see what Ujjwal has cooked up.

Celebrate!

Hey everyone!

When I saw the inspiration palette for this month's Altenew challenge I was a bit hesitant. 

These colours, together, are a bit out of my comfort zone.

This card is my second try. The first try was a total failure.

I hope you like this, I made this for a friend. I tried to keep it simple and have a lot of white space to balance the vibrant colours, but of course I HAD to add paint splatters. Added a lot of dimension to the flowers, looks like this one will have to mailed out in a box!

I have used Hennah Elements plus Label Love.

Coloured the stamp using Faber Castell classic pencils. Added a bit of glossy accent on the flower centers, a few enamel dots and sequins to add the bling factor.

Thats it from my side! 

Stop by my Instagram, I post quite regularly there!

love and hugs,

Erum
