Perth Regionals Swap 4

Hi everybody,

My last scheduled post showcasing my final cardfronts I made for the Perth regionals.

Here is the final set

Again nothing fancy. Simple white embossing of Lovely as a Tree and Occassional Greetings on a curly die cut Sand Sahara cardstock, layered on Certainly Celery and on Riding Hood Red. Love white on Sand Sahara. Sand Sahara card stock is my second favourate next to Kraft cardstock for stamping and/or embossing using white craft ink. Love the effect.

I am now in India. I am enjoying my holidays. When I get time I will try and load photos.

Have a great day

Perth Regionals Swap 3

Morning everybody,

How are you all? I think I should be tired by now. I should be on my second flight heading to India at the moment. This is a scheduled post to show my third set of cardfronts I made for the swap.
Its a bit different style for me but I like these very much.

 

 

And here is a card made using a similar cardfront and come cyrstal effects.

I love the use of white card ink on the kraft cardstock. Subtle and pretty.

I have used Fresh cuts and Dream dr jour stamp sets, 3 heart punch, Bella Rose DSP, Designer paper II, Chocolate chip, Pink Pirouette, So saffron and Kraft cardstocks.

Will definitely be using more of soft subtle colors and white caft ink on Kraft cardstock.

Alright see you tomorrow for more. Hopefully I will have access to internet. But I am sure I will not be able to load photos into my blog as internet in India is usually slow and I will be super busy with meeting family and friends. So it will be a scheduled post again showing my fourth set.

Have a great day

Hugs

Perth regionals swap 2

Morning everybody,

I am on the flight to KL at the moment. Probably sketching some card sketches on my book.
But I scheduled to show my second set of cardfronts I made for the Perth regionals.

Here they are:

 

I worked on the kraft cardstock using Fifth Avenue stamp set and different colors. The colors I have used here are Pink Passion, Pacific Blue, Night of Navy, Pumpkin Pie,Whisper White craft ink, Kiwi Kiss and Tangerine Tango. Both ink pads and cardstock. I have also used Dreams de Jour stamp cut out and mounted on the corresponding color scalloped square.I have also sponged the edges of the kraft cardstock using Chocolate Chip ink. Mounted them on the corresponding cardstock. There is one card made using the cardfront inside the cellophone cover. Clean and simple cards- my favourate flavour at the moment.Hope you like it.

See you tomorrow with another set. Until then, have a great weekend.

Hugs

Perth regionals swap

Hey everybody,

Good morning. Its Saturday and I am attending the Perth regionals.So this post is scheduled to publish today. That option is available in blogger and I am using it for the first time.

By now, I must be at the Perth convention centre meeting up with other Stampin' Up! demonstrators and doing the swap. I did some 40 card fronts.

Here is the first set I made. These are simple and clean cardfronts just highlighting the color combination.

 

 

Here is the close up of the card front.

I have used Flight of the butterfly stamp set on Pumpkin Pie and Pink Passion inks.And also regal rose 5/8" grosgrain ribbon and a punched out tiny butterfly mounted on dimensionals for added interest and texture.

 

Tomorrow there is another set of cardfronts in the post. Don't miss it.

Have a great day. I know I will!

Watering Can

Hello everybody,

I was packing and taking print outs of the tickets when I got Splitcoast Stampers newsletter and there was the tutorial on Watering can.Here is where you find the tutorial.

I couldn't resist and so I made one too. During the process I also learned how to set my printer to print on my cardstock. I had been trying to do it for a long long time. Wasted some time googling. But accidently I  found out the setting. Wow! what a great feeling. Felt like I had achieved something great lol!!!

Without any delay here are the pictures

 

 

Hehe!!! same watering can on different angles (atleast I think I did lol!). By the time, I printed the template out on the cardstock, there were some ink marks from the printer on the cardstock. So I printed out the template on Bella Rose DSP, cut it out and pasted on  top to hide the inkmarks. I also sponged the edges using black ink. Ooo!!! I liked how it turned out. Love it. Thanks for the tutorial Helli!

OK, I have to go pick kids from school.It time already!

You have a great day

Hugs
