  Hi Friends, How are you all today? I have a floral card to share with you all let's have a look For this card I used Direct to paper inking technique from Irresistible inking techniques lesson 1from AECP level 1 I used Winter roses stamp,Fashion monger dahlia stamp, Summer afternoon inkpads, Checkered squares embossing folder, all by Altenew. I started with stamping the different layers of flowers using summer afternoon inks and then fussy cut the flowers. I then die cut out the circle and embossed it using checkered squares embossing folder. I then used direct to paper inking technique to make the embossing stand out. I then adhered the flowers and leaves on to the embossed circle and then mounted the panel on the white card  base using foam adhesive. Lastly stamped the sentiment. Hope you like it.

 Hello Friends,  This is my second post of the day and I am going to share a elegant floral card with you all. Let's have a look For this card, I used the technique called "Stencilling with dies" from AECP level 1- easy die cutting techniques. I used Altenew Cube Cover die, Scripty Thanks die, Bitty bloom 3D die set and Warm gray ink cubes set. At the first I used cube cover die to make a stencil out of paper, I then used the stencil and warm grey inks to make a beautiful background. I die cut out "thanks' using Scripty thanks die out of gold cardstock and adhered it on the stenciled background. I also used bitty bloom 3D die set and gold,vellum and black to make those elegant flowers and adhered them too. Lastly, pasted the entire panel on folded black cardstock. I hope you like it!!

  Hello Friends, Today I am going to share my card for AAA Birthday Challenge. This monthly challenge now starts on 1st of every month and this time the theme is "Use a Stencil" I love stencilling alot and have collected quite a few stencils over the years. I like to combine them with stamping.  Lets have a look at my take in the theme. I used Bots of love stampset and Cogs and Codes 2 in 1 stencil by Heffy Doodle. I love the way both stamp and stencil complement each other. I stamped those cute robots on alchol markers friendly paper and colored them with Ohuhu alcohol markers. I then fussy cut the images. For background I used Spun sugar and Wilted violet distress oxides along with the cogs and codes stancil. Lastly, added the sentiment. I hope my card inspires you to play along with us. To have a look at the creation of other DTs ,Please head over to AAA Birthday Blog Happy Crafting!!
