Watercolor Hydrangea

Hey crafty friends,
I think everyone will be looking forward for the weekend like me. So in a last minute rush I am sharing a card today. Well I had almost decided not to share this card as it did not turn out as I had imagined it to be. Nevertheless later I thought it should be fine sharing not the best of your work.


Here you go. This is my attempt to create loose water colored hydrangea flower. 

As I said before, I had imagined something else and it turned out totally different. I was inspired by the colors in the Cupcake Inspiration challenge so this pink, green and a hint of yellow. I have used DI for coloring and the sentiment is from SSS.

Without taking more of your time, wish you have a fabulous weekend and enjoy yourself!

Thanks.

I am sharing the project in following challenges

Mermaid notepad | Altered notepad

Hello friends,
Today I am popping up to share something different which is an altered notepad. This one is very quick and simple.

I used some scrap paper and cut into different width and trimmed the length as per the notepad. Gave the edges a wave design using wave craft scissors and distressed the edges and glued them in layers to cover the notepad.

The mermaid tail is hand drawn and cut from colored paper. I have been hoarding some shell/ scales shaped flakes since many years and this was a perfect project to use them. So I glued them on the tail cutout and added some details with black gel pen. I then tucked it into one of the waves and glued it. Used white gel pen to add some splash and handwritten the sentiment.

Also made another version not using those scales.

Here is a short video too

Thanks for visiting. Have a great day ahead!!

Time to Bloom!

Hello friends,

Hope you are having a great week. Today I am back with another card which is inspired by few challenges.

First I stamped the image(Mudra - Wild Rose) in DI and then used the same DI for coloring. Added in details to image by using colored pencils. The sentiment is heat embossed and mounted on a foam base and added a border with a black gel pen. That's it, nothing too fancy here but I love this color combo and wanted to have a go with it for the Double D Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great time.
