Congrats!

Hello everybody! 

Mad Monday morning. Most chaos has settled. So time to blog. Sharing with you a card I made using Debby Hughes technique she shared at Clean and Simple Online Class. 

I have used beautiful stamps from The Craft's Meow for this card. The company is now closed but I love their stamp sets. I pretty much CASed her card here except I used flower instead of the butterfly which Debby used on her card and I went for silver embossing paste instead of white paste. Different sentiment as well.  

Here is a closeup!

 I have an exciting gig coming up in April. I am looking forward to sharing it with you. Yay!

Have a great day!

Happy New Year 2014!

Good Morning!

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year. 

May your New year be:

A new year that brings luck and prosperity.

A new year that brings happiness and joy.

A new year that makes dreams come true.

A new year that brings success in whatever you do.

A Farewell Hop!

Hello everybody,

I am sad to say that The Craft's Meow is closing down :(  Lisa has made the hard decision to close the shop because she is going to work full time. I am honored to be asked to design for The Craft's Meow and cherished every moment working with Lisa and the team. So today all the designers are having a farewell blog hop in the honour of The Craft's Meow and the Lisa.

Thank you Lisa for the opportunity you gave me to work as your design team member. It was a please. All the best for your future. This thanks card is expressing the my thanks to you. Hope you like it.

Christmas Card Set #5

Happy Weekend Everybody! 

Here is another set of Christmas cards for you.

This card is made using Holiday Foundations Stamp Set from The Craft's Meow!

Holiday Foundations

I have decided to add the picture and link for the stamp sets I will be using to make my Christmas Cards because I get emails asking which stamp set I have used. I thought by adding the image and linking it easier to see and go to the shop if you like to purchase. Not at all enabling (Wink!) Just trying to help!

I love this stamp set and the cards because I love stamping, period! Simple pleasures in life. This is one of them :) I love the colours and Memento Luxe inks are awesome. To finish my card off I used coordinating coloured twines with silver bells. I think I will make more of these cards using different colour combinations.

Enjoy your weekend!

Introducing: Little Angels

Welcome to Day #4 and final day preview of The Craft's Meow new releases stamp sets.

Today we are introducing a stamp set called Little Angels.
This set is designed by Clare Buswell
It is 4 x 6 size stamp set.

Here is my project using the stamp set.

I have heat embossed the angel image using silver embossing powder. Then coloured using copics. I have then stamped the background with a snowflake image from the set. I have also layered snowflakes images using three different colours of blue ink and brown ink on a scrap piece of paper. I adhere the paper at an angle and trimmed the edges. Love this set. A different take to Christmas cards.

The Craft's Meow Blog Hop!

Welcome to The Craft's Meow Blog Hop!

If you have some from Deborah Nolan's blog, then you are on the right track in the hop.

The theme for this month is Anything goes with a technique.

I have used Fancy Flourishes and Typically Teen stamp sets to make my card. I simply sponged distressed ink on the background and stamped the Fancy Flourishes in black on top of the sponged multi colour background. I also used the white gel pen to add some dots. Then I have accented with rhinestones.  The sentiment is from Typically Teen stamp set. The card looks very bollywood to me ;) :) Love the vibrant colours on the background. Here is the close up of the card.

Your next stop is to Jennie Harper's blog. Check out her gorgeous project.

Edited: I am also submitting this card to CASE Study Challenge #156.


Happy Hopping!

Welcome to day #3 preview of The Craft's Meow August new release.

We are introducing two new stamp sets called Jar of Sunshine and Folk Art Blooms. These two stamp sets are designed by Nina B Designs.

Normally I am not a big fan of jars. But this jar is beautifully shaped that I love it. The set also have accessories to go with the jar. Beautiful stamp set.

This is my card made using Folk Art stamp Set.

This is very different card for me. I have gone for a vintage folk art look using cram cardstock base and autumn colours. I think it is perfect especially with the card for gran.  I like it myself:) Unusual for me and turned out beautiful. So you can create your custom folk art frame using your colour combination, modern or traditional or vintagy....
