Deepest Sympathy

Hello everyone!! Wish you all a Happy New Year!! Hope you all had a wonderful time celebrating the New Year. 

It's time for a new challenge here at the Fairy Tale Challenges - from now on, the challenges start on Tuesdays. Our first challenge this year is - Anything Goes.

Here's what I made to inspire you:

I've been wanting to try this masking technique for a long time. I used the Dogwood flower stamp from STAMPlorations. I masked the flower and masked off a rectangle around it and spongged the rectangle with distress ink. I colored the flowers with marker. The sentiment is from Inspired by Stamping - Big Sympathy. I stamped it with grey ink.

Do check out the Fairy Tale Challenge blog for more inspiration. This is my last post as a Guest Designer for them. I had a  nice time.

Thanks for stopping by. Please let me know your comments. Have a great day!

Hello Friend

Hello everyone!! It's time for a new challenge here at Fairy Tales Challenge. Our new theme for this challenge is to add Metal to your project.

Here's what I made:

I have this stamp set from Whimsy stamps (I think it's retired) for a long time. I stamped and embossed it with Zing Silver embossing powder. I love the chandelier image. I made a double loop bow using silver sheer ribbon. The charms are from my stash (I have those for almost 2 years I guess). This color combination had turned out to be one of my favorites now!!

Silver Tree

Hello everyone!! It's time for a new challenge here at Fairy Tales Challenge. Our new theme for this challenge is to make Christmas projects without red and green.

Here's what I've made to inspire you:

Many of us have memories of Christmas cards from our childhood. I remember a particular Christmas card from when I was a small kid (early 90's), that was dark navy blue and it had a snow scene in silver holographic foil. I loved that card and color scheme. So I decided to make one with the same combination.

The swirly tree is a die cut using  a file from Bird's cards. I embossed it with Zing silver embossing powder. The sentiment is from Unity Stamps - Unto us stamp set. I embossed it with the same silver embossing powder.

This is one of the cards for Caring Hearts Card Drive.
