Summer card camp week 2 - Color combo


Hello again,
This is the second week of Summer Card Camp and there is a new color combination.
Here is the color combination for you.

Gorgeous summer colors. At the moment here down under, these colors brings some joy and happiness to me:) Seriously, it freezing and grey here:(
Here is my card using these colors.



I used Papertrey Ink's Asian Fusion, Life, Larger than life, Daydreamer and Flutterby Friends stamp set to make this card. Inks are from SU. Cardstock is from Papertrey Ink and the watercolor paper is from SU. Love the flower arrangement on the vase. Hope you like it too. I am having fun with the card camp.
Thanks for visiting my blog. Hope you have a great week!
See ya soon :)

Luv!

Summer card camp week 1 - Bonus color combo

Here I go again! Another Baby Onesie card using one of the bonus color combo. I have used the 4th combination.


I like the 4th combination because its earthy and very Indian.

I stamped the large Mehndi Medallion from PTI using memento ink and colored using copics :) Here is a closeup so you can see the colors.


Sentiment from Papertrey Ink's Inside Out Baby stamp set. I love this onesie with this design. I want to achieve a different design on the onesie. No soft colors, no animals on it or satin ribbons. I think I have achieved it and it looks so Indian. I can easily imagine this design and colors on a traditional indian fabric. I am so happy with it and hope you like it too :)


This is my second post for today. If you want to see the first post, then click here.

Have a great week!

Beautiful Borders!


Afternoon! Its a beautiful sunny Sunday for me. Very cold start but at the moment looks just beautiful. I love winter sun. Brightens up the day but not hot. I got all my washings done and clothes are on the clothes line drying. House is all dusted, cleaned and vacuumed. Lunch is cooking. So I am all happy. You know what that means..... lol! Yes, I did craft :)
These are  two baby onesie tags.


These are made using Papertrey Ink's baby onesie die and banner dies. I recently saw a baby wearing an onesie on Pinterst which inspired me to make these tags. Here is the image of the baby from Pinterest.


I love the grey scalloped neck design and so wanted to try it on paper.

I am so in love with the Baby Onesie die. Idea bulbs light up in my head everytime I see the die lol!  You may see more onesie projects on my blog this week. Just a warning for you :)
 I am entering these for Moxie Fab World Challenge- Beautiful Borders. If you like to play along the challenge, here is the link to the challenge.
Thanks for stopping by! See ya soon!
Have a wonderful weekend!

P.S. I have another post today, click here to see my second post.

You're not old! You're vintage!


It is a freezing Saturday for me. Busy day today but always have time to craft. I learned a lot from the Summer Card Camp about sketches and balancing elements on the card. So I tried out the symmetrical sketch today and made a masculine CAS card for CAS-ual Friday Challenge.
Here is the sketch for you.
Here is the card I made using the sketch.


I have used one large image intead of the three and yet there is symmetry and balance on the card.
Love to refresh on the basic concepts. Thanks Kristina for that.
Also this is the first time I am participating in CAS-ual Friday challenge. Here is the link to the challenge. Love the idea of Krafts-men lol! The challenge is to create a masculine card using Kraft.Love any masculine card challenge. Because its always a challenge for me, how many ever times I sit to make a masculine card. Hope you like my take on the challenge.

Thanks for stopping by.! Have a great weekend.!

Rainbow Challenge.


I made a card using Papertrey Ink Baby Onesie die today. This is the first time ever has the order arrived within the month of release. Looks like the Chile ash clouds have brought the parcel quickly through the  jet stream lol! I am so excited because all the inspirations from the countdown is still fresh in my mind. So this afternoon I had a chance make a card for Embellish Rainbow Challenge. Here is the inspirational photo.



And here is my take on the challenge

I went a bit over the top with the rainbow on the onesie, didn't I?  That was because I working on the neck part of it and then, my friend came over... I was working and chatting at the same time. Then this happened!!! Sigh! She liked it but not me. Anyway, I am not going to destroy it but enter it for the Embellish Challenge. 

Cardstocks from Papertrey Ink and SU. Rainbow die from MFT, Baby Onesie die from Papretrey Ink. Sentiment is also from PTI Comminque Sentiment set. Ribbon from SU. 
If you like to play the challenge then here is the link for you.

Now off to see if I can manage to do more craft his evening :)
Have a great weekend
