The Ton - Shaker card

Hi..

Friends..

Here I am with a shaker card. I used 2nd n 3rd layer of images and stamped them with versa mark ink on a water colour paper n then clear heat embossed. Then with ink blending tool blended colours. Added few drops of water to get bleached effect.

I die cut this panel with SSS stitched rectangle die. Stamped the sentiment with Versafine black onyx ink, prepared the shaker part. Stamped few more flowers and leaves to decorate corners of the card.

Hello Friends..

Before I could start with my post I would Love to share a funny thing happened with me. Here In India we have Summer Holidays and I didn't know at all that in US they have holidays in December. So when we got to know theme of the challenge I was totally confused as why Holidays in Winter. Any way lets get back to the post. So now you know the theme of the challenge and the collaborating company for this month still I will make it clear.
This month at A Blog Named Hero we are collaboration with the Simon Says Stamp and our theme for this month is Winter Holidays. Do visit the blog for more details and wonderful take on the challenge from my Dt friends.

Now lets come to my card..

• I prepared a card base with a light green card stock (its mix of kraft n green).
• Its a side folding 3.5x8.25 card.
• I heat embossed leaves from Simon Says Stamp set and die cut them out.
• Gold heat embossed sentiment on vellum and gave it torn effect.
• Arranged my elements on the smaller panel, edges of which I had distressed.
• Foam mounted panel on the card base. Glued few leaves flat and few foam mounted.
• Added a few golden dew drops.

•  Loved the dimension of the card and how it turned out.

A Blog Named Hero - Bling it

Hi.. Friends..
Today I am here with a new challenge at A Blog Named Hero. This month we are collaborating a new company Studio Katia, they have fresh designs, dies and fun sequins. Do check them out.

Now coming to my take on the challenge - Bling it.

I used Studio Katia's stamp from February release, their dies and sequins. Heat embossed images on a card base. Used two embossing powders for flower and leaves to add shading and depth.
Here are my two cards, one shaker card

Here is my shaker card

Such awesome dies.

Distressed background and 2 cards

Hi.. Friends..
Its been a long time i posted here. I have 2 cards for you today. I wanted to make a shaker card from past few days. So i have one shaker card.

Card #1

* The panel I used for both cards is same.
* I gold heat embossed the floral bloom image on a white CS and applied distress inks.
* I die cut the panel with stitched scallop rectangle  dies (used both on same panel).
* Glued frames together and used doubled foam tape to create my shaker well.
* Heat embossed sentiment from Birdie stamp set.
* Used different coloured sequins and secured the frame on card base.

Here is the card

Card #2

This was very easy to put together as most elements were ready.

* I used remainders of frame for this card.
* I glued both pieces on an acetate.
* Heat embossed image and sentiment from magical fairies on vellum.
* Glued the vellum on the panel and the whole panel was mounted on card base with foam tape.

** Only reason to use acetate was to avoid cutting thin strips of foam tape.

Here is my card

Here is the closer look at the panel and sentiment.
