Summer card camp week 1 - Color combo

Morning everybody,

Today is my washing and cleaning day but its raining here. So no washing can be done today. Although I can still clean and vacuum, I decided to postone cleaning and make a card. I have signed up for Summer Card Camp by Jennifer and Kristina. Funny, its winter here for me and I have signed up for Summer Card Camp. Well, I am from down under :). Anyway, first week color combo is out and I decided to participate using the color combo. Here is combination for you.

And here is my card using the color combination :)

 I opted to do a CAS card using these colors with lots of white space. Also I used Rock and Roll technique on the flowers. The large flower has pink and orange and small flowers have purple and pink. Hope you can see them. If not here is a close up photo.

I have used Papertrey Ink supplies all in all except for the inks which are from SU. Stamps sets are called  Background Basic Polka Dots I,  Daydreamer (new release) and sentiment from Commnique Sentiments also from Papertrey Ink. Here is another full photo of the card where the rock and roll technique on the flower is seen.

Hope you like the card. Very excited to have join the Card Camp. Registration closes June 29th here is the link for you. If you are in Australia and New Zealand, you still have a day left to register :)

P.S. I am also entering this card for Moxie Fab Stamp It challenge as my card fulfills the challenge requirements :)

Have a great day!

Tuesday Trigger - Lovely as a Lullaby!

Hello everybody,

What a beautiful day today! Not just because of the lovely sunshine but I had a good day. Work is good. Love it to bits. After work went with friend to see Bridesmaids and had lunch. Picked kids from school and back home now for dinner :) 

I had made a card for Tuesday Trigger-Lovely as a Lullaby which I wanted to share with you. Here is the inspirational picture.

I was inspired by the polka dots and stripes on the fabric and the distressed edges. Love the color combo a lot. So I wanted to make my own pattern papers for my card.

Here is my take on the picture for you.

I have used Papertrey Ink Polka Dot background basic and Distressed Stripe background basic stamps on grey, white and yellow cardstocks to make my pattern paper. Distressed the edges using edge distressor. diecuts are from Papertrey Ink and Sentiment is also from Papertrey Ink Love Lives Here stamp set. Lace is from an Etsy shop. Ribbon from my stash.

Love the soft colors and the distressed edges and the beautiful sentiment. Hope you like it too.

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a great evening :)

Luv!

PTI June Blog Hop

Hello everybody,

Welcome to PTI's June Blog Hop. This month PTI has an inspirational picture as the theme.
Here is the picture for you.

When I first looked at it, I loved the wall and the colors but I was stumped. How am I going to make a card using that gorgeous picture as inspiration. But then, Nicole had a gorgeous card using copics and a tutorial in this month's release countdown and I wanted to try it. So the rainbow colors on a white cardstock using copics!!!  Nichole's card is stunning but me? Mmmm don't know!
Determined, I set to do the same on a scrap piece of white cardstock. Initially I did not like it and so I left it on the table and left to take kids for their music class. When I came back, the copics had dried and blended very well. Loved it.Not bad :) I can use them Yay!  I used the layout of the picture to make my card set.

So what do you think? Love it? I do. Love the CAS style with lots of color. Here are pictures of the individual cards.

Thanks for stopping by! If you want to play, head to Nichole's Blog and link your post. Its an all day event. Or if you want some inspiration, check out all the blogs linked for the blog hop here.

Happy Hopping!

See ya soon...

Luv!

Anyway, I had recently won a set called "Celebrating You" and did make a post on my blog here. Well, I managed to ink the stamp and made couple of cards. So here they are:

Isn't that Fuschia flower so pretty? I love it and the senitments are awesome too.  The font of the sentiment is lovely. All the swirls and curls... beauitufl!
