I love U 2 ! ;)

Heyyaaa Sweet Crafters!! :)

While I can see pretty Christmas cards floating through-out our blog-land..I thought why not make 1-2 cards more before starting my Christmas ones? :)

My first card is a black and white with a tinge of gold!

For the card, I stamped flowers from STAMPlorations - Blooms sketches and Fiskars- Petals from scratch stamp set. I used jet black archival ink. I used Rangers gold embossing powder and versa mark to heat emboss the sentiment. I also added golden color to the petals! :)

I am entering this card for Happy Little Stampers CAS Challenge - Gilding

and
My second card is inspired by this month's Time Out#44 Guest Designer Karen.
Look at her gorgeous card!! I loved the sketch and doesn't that stenciling look just perfect ?? :)



My second card is here:

For this card, I inverted the sketch of Karen's card and did loads of  masking for it! :P I used the STAMPlorations- Bloom sketches and Bo Bunny- It is written stamp set. I used 3 different shades of yellow distress ink to color the flowers and leaves. The sentiment is heat embossed using gold embossing powder from Ranger.

Also, I am entering both of the cards for
STAMPlorations Anything Goes

and

AAA Cards Challenge - Anything Goes

Crafters hardly find time for anything, but still that's the one thing we all manage to find time for! I have a time saving hack for you ladies..as Christmas is just around the corner, you may not find enough time ..So, you can use one black card stock and make a sheet for heat embossed sentiment like this. It helps, really! (and if you already know what kind of cards you are gonna make, then this one is a life -saver ) I have made this sheet using white and gold embossing powder. :)

Hope you liked my CAS cards! 

Enjoy! :)
