Few Cards using Colorado Craft Company Stamps

 Hello friends!

Last year, I ordered a few stamps from Colorado Craft Company. I absolutely love their stamps sets, especially the ones illustrated by Anita Jeram and also the ones from the Big and Bold stamp set series. In my previous post, I used Big & Bold~Missing You Peony stamp set. You may view the card here. 

Today, I'm sharing three more cards I made using CCC's Anita Jeram- Birthday Wishing and Anita Jeram--Better Together.

Card #1


I stamped the images using Versafine Onyx black ink and coloured these using White Nights watercolours. The background over the card base was also made using the same watercolours and a Number 0 brush. 



Card #2


For card #2 as well, I used Whitenights watercolours. I wanted a happy, bright background to go with the happy sentiment and the clean focal image; therefore, I decided to paint some yellow-coloured stripes using the same watercolours.


Card #3



For this one, I decided to create a nice little scenery with no-line watercolouring of the main images. The colours I used for this one were Zig Clean Color Brush Pens, whereas the paper I used was Arches watercolor paper. I like how it has turned out.

I hope you liked the cards that I shared today. 
Happy crafting! Take care and stay safe.

3rd International Women's Day Blog Hop - 2021

 Hello dear friends!

Here's wishing all the wonderful ladies a very happy women's day. 

I warmly welcome you to the 3rd International Women's Day Blog Hop (2021) at my stop.



You are doing great you've arrived from Ishani's blog. If not, then you may check out the hop list that I have shared below to get yourself back to the hopping order.

To know more about the prizes, please visit the link here.

And here's my card for the hop




That gorgeous floral stamp is from Colorado Craft Company's Big & Bold~Missing You Peony stamp set. The word "BIG" is also from the same stamp set, whereas the gold-embossed "DREAM" belongs to My Favorite Things- Adorable Elephants stamp set. I coloured the image using Tim Holtz Distress inks as well as Whitenights watercolours. I used Arches cold-pressed watercolour paper for making this one.




I'll leave you with a beautiful quote that inspired me to make this card:

"Dream Big....For if I can dream, I can act; And if I can act, I can become." 

May we all strive to become the best versions of ourselves.
