SUNSET CARD

Here is the sunset scenery card that I was wanting to make from a long time and I finally DID it.
SUPPLIES:
  1. Water colours
  2. Sponges
  3. Stamps
  4. Post-it-notes
  5. Black marker
I took a yellow ochre card stock and used a cut Post It Note as a mask for the sun.
Sponged yellow chrome water colour on the entire card stock(cs).


Mixed a darker orange and red color and sponged it on the upper half of the cs. Blended the centre with the sponge used for yellow chrome.Blending gives a more natural look.
Sponged black ink both on top and bottom of the cs.

Removed the Post It Note and stamped the image. Gave a little orange line on the sun

Used a black marker to border the cardstock. It acts like a faux layer.Highlighted the stamped image with orange and green markers.

Assembled everything together. Completed the card.
Hope that Helped!
Thanks!
Have a nice day!

Quilled Wildflower


I quilled this one with my new quilling tool. Having a quilling tool makes quilling so very simple.
I glued the quilled pieces to the golden card stock. Assembled everything on the main Maroon cardstock.
I recently tried distressing for the CAS challenge card (here for the sentiment) and I must say the look it gives is great.
Thanks for looking!
Have a nice day.

JUTE CIRCLE CARD

Here is a card I made by using JUTE STRING. You can use it as a base for any of your embellished or quilled cards. Here's how to do it.
Start with curling the string holding it in your hand. Use a strong glue to stick it.
Once you have an adequate size stick it to the main card. This makes the coiling process easier.
This is how it'll look after completion. Ofcourse the size of the circle depends on your preference.




Here is the close up after is added the quilled flowers and leaves.

I used a brown cs and a handmade paper (glittery one) for the layers behind. For the front layer I glued a patterned paper to the yellow cardstock and added White Punched flowers. Stuck blue beads to the centre of the flower and a few other places on the patterned paper.

Here is the close-up of the front layer.

Have a nice day!
