Guest Designing at CUYL: Masking

Hello everyone!

I am so sorry I have not visited your blogs in a while. Will make sure to stop by over the weekend.

It's my third card for the Challenge Up Your Life guest DT spot.

This fortnight the theme is

MASKING

Here is what I made:

This is a total Hero Arts card. Have not made one in a while. 

I stamped a butterfly on a separate piece of cardstock and used it as a mask to stamp several of them on the watercolor paper.

I also masked some parts of the butterfly with my versamark pen and then clear embossed it. I also used glossy accents as a mask (thanks Tejal for the tip!). 

The butterflies have been watercolored using several colours of distress inks.

Both stamps are by Hero Arts. The sentiment is heat embossed.

Stop by the CUYL challenge blog to enter!

That's all from my side today.

Have a wonderful day :)

Lia Stampz: Handmade Flower

Hello!!

Things have been insanely busy here and I have a severe migraine so this is going to be super short.

The theme over at Lia Stampz is

Handmade Flower(s)

Here is what I made.

I really wanted to use this adorable elephant by Lia Stampz so I made my own 0.75" pinwheel as my "handmade flower".

NOT the easiest task I tell you!

The image is a no outline one, watercolored using distress inks.

That's it from me, Sitting in front of the laptop is hurting my eyes so much!

Thank you for stopping by!

Guest Designing at CUYL: It's All About Sequins

Hello again!

This is my second post today and it's another rainbow card for you.

I am guest designing over at Challenge Up Your Life for June/July and this is my second post as GD.

The theme this fortnight is

It's All About Sequins

I have inked up my background using distress inks, flicked some water droplets to add texture and then sprayed it with shimmer mist. The heat embossed sentiment is from Avery Elle.

Hope you liked it!

Guest Designing at Artful Crafting

Hello everyone!

I am guest designing over at Artful Crafting today. 

Artful Crafting is Pakistan's first ever online craft store (a dream come true really) and they recently launched the Artful Crafting Challenges.

This month the theme is

No Flowers

A bit about my card, I have used SSS die and stamp on a rainbow background which I created using various shades of distress inks.

For those who would like to know they are as follows: Festive berries, Barn Door, Fired Brick, Ripe Persimmon, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Crushed Olive, Evergreen Bough, Peacock Feathers, Chipped Sapphire, Salty Ocean, Shaded Lilac and Picked Raspberry.
 Please know you don't need all these shades to create a rainbow background, I just wanted to complete the card quickly without wasting time in mixing colors to make a new one.

I have layered the largest butterfly and placed it a bit offset. Added a few black splatters to balance the bold, black sentiment.

There is a ton of shimmer on the card which you cant see here but is visible in person.

Until next time,

ciao

Sentimental Sundays: Happy Father's Day or Masculine Cards

Hello everyone!

Sentimental Sundays is going on a little hiatus. Our last challenge before the hiatus is

Happy Father's Day or Manly Cards

I have a hybrid card for you today. I designed this card on Photoshop for a teenager who loves comics.

There is tons of dimension, fussy cutting and heat embossing on the card.

I hope you will stop by the Sentimental Sundays challenge blog and play with us.

hugs and love,

Erum
