Button figure card

Hi friends,

Hope you are doing well. Phew, finally I got some time to post my card after so much of tiring works for the day. You all already might have seen my daughter's ( 6 years old little girl) card for mother's day. Here I have CASEed her card. Yes she made me to do it. Now she is proudly saying to her dad, "appa, see amma has cased my card because my card was so beautiful". Aspire to inspire. Inspirations are everywhere 😀. Let's go for the show off,

Abundance love turns distance null

Hello crafty peeps,

I'm back with a cute birdie card that speaks volume of kindness. Here you go,


This clean and simple card depicts the love between mom and daughter / between sisters. In my case both,  as I'm far away from my mom as well as from my sister( do you agree sister is also a second mother and a good friend always!!???)
We are apart by distance but we think about eachother and we have so much love to each other so distance doesn't matter here. I miss my mom and my sister very much.

Homes I used in my card are chipboard from Itsy bitsy craft store. And those birds are hand drawn by me. Finished the card using my handwritten sentiment. Click the image for closer look.

Hope you all liked my card. I'm entering my card into the following challenges,

AAA card inspired by nature challenge






Time out challenge of home sweet home photo inspiration challenge


Cupcake inspiration challenge 



Addicted to cas challenge

Paru's card making challenge


Stamploration's may challenge of things with wings
Scrapping for fun challenge of theme ladies


Rainbow craftykari inspiration challenge ( I was inspired by the photo and those sentiments, simply the theme the layout conveys ... Distance or weather not matters when there is so much love). I want to convey the same meaning in my card with my usual cas style. It was quite challenging. I'm happy with the outcome 😊)



Thanks for stopping by. Happy crafting. 

Cheers!!

Raga.

Mother's day card

Hello Friends,

Welcome back. This is my second card for the day. It's a clean and simple card. My mother is fond of copper cookware and has a great collection also the cue at CASology this week is "copper", so here is my take



I made these copper utensils ( ladles) using ice cream sticks and painted them using fevicryl pearl metallic copper paint. Hand written the sentiment you are amazing. Can you notice Ma(mother) in the word amazing is being highlighted?!

Did you know drinking water stored in copper vessels is good for your health? I have seen my mom doing so. 😊

Hope you all liked my card.

I'm playing along the following challenges

CASology where the cue word is ''copper"










Paru's card making challenge of theme Mother's day








Creative fingers challenge blog of always anything goes theme

Scrapping for fun challenge of theme ladies








Addicted to cas: code word mum or mom












Thanks for stopping by. Happy crafting.

cheers!!

Friendship Card


Vanakkam(greetings in Tamil) Friends,

I'm back with another friendship card. This is my second attempt with stamping as I usually have hand drawn images in my card,recently I won some stamps in a giveaway hosted by my friend Ishani. So I could play with the stamps and images she provided along with the prize. Let's go for the show off,











The images butterfly and flower are from Mudra craft stamps. I did the stamping of butterfly twice and make use of the left portion alone to get my butterfly in sideway. I love how it creates Beautiful dimension as if it is in motion, like about to land on the flower 😊. I also added details to my butterfly using white gelly roll pen. 

I  coloured the images using heated crayon technique as i got inspired from my friend Ishani 's recent butterfly card and I followed the video link she mentioned in her post. I have to thank the talented crafter Loll thompson (stamping with Loll) too as Ishani is doing a series of  CASEing her cards, only then I came to know about LOLL ( I'm new to this crafting community and stamping world so I'm not aware of many talented artists out here). Thanks so much LOLL for being a great inspiration for us 😊.

I don't have gelatos or any branded crayons, yet I could make use of my daughter's stash Of camlin wax crayons which worked well for me. I don't have heat tool so I used a tea light candle for the process. 

My monochrome butterfly, strawberry blushed flower, and distress mottled lawn BG are inspired from photo inspiration @ uniko challenge and the sentiment from time-out challenge.

I finished the card using my Hand written Sentiment and with some water droplets rhinestones. Below are some pictures while my card is in process, for your reference.





I'm linking my card to the following challenges,

Paper players colour challenge from Claire

Mudra craft stamps blog challenge of anything goes theme. 


CAS Mix Up Challenge of using gelatos / crayons 


Uniko photo inspiration challenge

Time out challenge of inspire by words challenge


AAA card challenge of theme inspired by nature 


Stamploration may challange of theme things with wings
Stamping sensation monthly blog challenge of theme close to nature




Addicted to stamps and more challenge of theme make your mark



Hope you all liked my card. Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers!!
