Heyy Friends,
Okay, this is my second post of the day and it may seem to you that I'm on a card making and posting spree :P lol. Actually my next few days are going to be super busy as we are shifting to a new home very soon and there's some serious packing to be done. So won't be getting time for a next few days to craft and just don't want to miss playing along a few challenges either. Okay, so without boring you with my story any further, let me show you probably my last card for the year 2013 ..;) -
The technique I used is 'Tone-on-tone' Stamping technique. First coloured the strips of card stock with different distress inks and stamped with a BG stamp on each strip using a corresponding distress ink. It's very easy to do, and I loved the results. :)
I was inspired by Marion Vagg's card I saw on pinterest. Do check out her fabulous card here
The roses are handmade and I learnt to make them from very talented Dr. Sonia's blog. She has some amazing flower and other tutorials explained very simply. I distressed the flower petals to give it that 'shaded' look.
The sentiment is hand written on a piece of vellum.
My dear hubby loved this card because it's so colourful and vibrant :). How do you like it?
That's all from me now. Wishing you all a very happy and a prosperous New Year. :)

Thanks Ayushi, dear I love reading your comments always. :) It's not CAS though but yeah, even I liked the way it has turned out :)
DeleteHi Jasleen ~ coming over from Darnell's blog to say "hi" - and how right she was when she described you as passionate about crafting! Your quill cards are so lovely, and your stamping - as shown here - absolutely fabulous! How wonderful that you've had an opportunity to re-connect with your creative side, creating delightful works of art to share with us and, especially, your daughter! She'll be stamping alongside you in no time (my niece is 3 and I showed her how to stamp when she was about 2 1/1 - amazing what she's able to do now!). Wishing you a most Happy New Year and a smooth move to your new home...how exciting! I'll be back to visit for sure!!

Hello this is kinda of off topic but I was wanting to know if
ReplyDeleteblogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding
expertise so I wanted to get advice from someone with
experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!

Gosh wats that??? I have been blogging since december but wat you are saying is Greek to me..lol.. Sorry, won't be able to help you with that, probably you should try asking someone who's more experienced than me or some techie guy who's into computers. All the best!
