Flowers in Arch

 Hello everyone! I have another copic colored floral card inspired by Altenew Inspiration Challenge today.


I used the Altenew - Peonies and Berries stamp set, a very well loved stamp set with which I have made a lot of cards :) I used masking sheets and stamped the entire floral bunch with Fadeout ink for no-line coloring. I used my copic markers for coloring. I bought this Scrapbook.com arch die set earlier this year and been waiting to use it. This card seemed like the perfect opportunity to open it. The sentiment is from Altenew - Fresh Freesia stamp set. Color inspiration is from Altenew Challenge.

Diamond Frame Flowers

 Hello everyone! I'm back with another card for the Altenew Challenge, this time using a die set that I have not used yet.


I started by embossing the background with Altenew - Geo Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder. I love how crisp that embossing looks. Then I stamped the Altenew - Flower Delight stamp with Fadeout ink for no-line coloring. I fussy cut the image after coloring it with Copics. I die cut the Fine Frame - Diamonds on white card stock. I used pieces of washi tape to hold the positive and negative die cuts together, so that the positive die cuts hold the shape. Then I carefully removed the negative die cuts (and put it safe to use for another project ;)) with the washi tape still on and applied glue on the back of the frames and glued it on to the embossed card stock. Then I removed the washi tape. I adhered the floral image and sentiment on to the card. The color is inspired from the Altenew Challenge.

Happy Day Flowers

 Hello everyone! Here's a floral card to wish you a happy day!


I stamped the Altenew - Statement Flowers stamp set with Fadeout ink for no-line coloring. I used copics to color the image and fussy cut it with scissors. I took a burgundy colored card stock and embossed it with Altenew - Illusion Triangels 3D embossing folder. I die cut the frame from the Altenew - New Day Card Kit Heart frame die set. The sentiment is also from the Statement Flowers stamp set. The inspiration for this card comes from this picture of Altenew Inspiration Challenge (for which I made this card):

Mushroom Birthday

 Hello everyone! I have a birthday card with a wood/mushroom theme to share with you today.


I've been seeing lot of new releases with mushroom themed supplies and it inspired me to get out one of my die sets that I've had for a long time and never used yet. This is the Hero Arts - Mushroom and Ferns die set. I die cut all the images on white card stock and colored with Copics. For the background, I embossed a piece of brown card stock with Craftwell - Woodgrain embossing folder. I die cut a oval using Divinity Designs - Elegant Oval and stamped the sentiment from Altenew stamps. I arranged the mushrooms and ferns and adhered them down.

Beach Day

 Hello everyone! I'm sharing a beach scene light up card that I made for one of our friends' farewell.


The base of the scenery is the Hero Arts - Beach Frame die. I use copics to color in the various elements in the die cut. Here's the card with the lights on:


I had the 'switch' for the light up circuit on the bottom right corner of the card. So when I press it, the light in the light house turns on. I used EZ Lights for the light up circuit. The light house is a die from Gina Marie Designs - I removed the rest of the die cut. I cut it twice, so that I can sandwich the wires in between them. I colored it with Copics. Here's how it looks.


This is a 3 fold card, so the outer fold has a window with the lighthouse, the second panel had the sea view with a ship.


The sailboat is a die from Simon Says Stamp and I colored it with Copics too. For the background, I used Brutus Monroe inks. On the window side, I made sure to color the back side of the die cut as well I used another panel with a oval window cut out as a backing and to hide the wires and battery. Here's the view of the inside of the window with the lights on:


Here's the card fully open. It had plenty of space for all of us to write messages.
