ATSM#211- Anything Goes and what kept me busy!

Helllooo Dearrrr Friendsss!!! :)

First of all, let me apologize for my absence from the blog world from a last few days! I must tell you all what all kept me busy last fortnight!

But before that, it is time for a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More #211 !! :)

We have Anything Goes at ATSM ! And our sponsor this week is STAMPlorations! ;)

I have a collection of amazing STAMPlorations stamps- I was waiting eagerly to use one! :)

For the card, I used STAMPlorations-Trendy leaves and Trendy Feathers stamp set. I did a bit of masking on the borders and stamped the leaves using various colors of distress ink. MISTI stamping tool makes it very convenient! :)

I am entering this card for -

1.Time Out Challenge#65
Inspired by words “Love the trees until their leaves fall off, then encourage them to try again next year.”

2.Addicted to CAS Challenge#96 - Harvest

3.Inkspirational Challenge#117- Photo inspiration. I am inspired by the fall colors(Orange/Yellow/brown) from this pic.

Now, back to what kept me busy! As you know, I am working in a software company, we had our Production release. When we have a release, we create a havoc and that kept me busy in the office. We had working weekends and long working hours in office!

After that, we have Ganpati festival celebrated at our home. All my Indian friends might be aware of that but for my Non Indian friends out there, Ganesha festival is celebrated in full swing in our state. Here we pray to the Idol of Mighty God Ganesha. He is the God of Knowledge, Happiness and the one who is worshipped before any other God! :)

Check out the picture of Ganesha that we got for our Home!

In addition to all this, I caught cold which made me feel low. However, medicines helped! ;)

Now I am feeling much better and Office work is sorted out. Ganesha festival is still being celebrated! :)
Wooops!! I forgot to say, now I got myself a logo! You will find me using this in my cards and pages! It signifies my FIRST Stamp Design -The Humming Bird set from Mudra Stamp Crafts!

Did you like it?
This has been one of my longest posts yet! Lol. Hope I did justice to my absence! ;)
I will catch up with the comments soon!

Thanks so much for being here- I appreciate it a lot! And thanks for being patient!

Guest performance at NJC blog! :)

Namaste Dear Bloggersss!! _/|\_

Not Just Cards has offered me to be their Guest Designer this month too! I am honored!

So, I decided to decorate a paper bag that I had with me!

I have used Digital Stamps and Sentiment from Stitchy Bears -"Stitchy Bears_Digi Blessings - Baked With Love" with you can find here. I loved this cute bear and the innocence on its face! Its so pretty! :) :)

I sponged the Worn lipstick and Fire brick Distress ink over the background using a stencil. I textured the bag using Salty ocean distress ink and Bo-Bunny "To the Point" Stamp Set. I also used the same set and stamped those directions using Black Soot. I colored the Digi using distress ink.

I adhered a Musical print sheet at the bottom and embellished a wooden camera near the bear! I adhered a lace which has a bear already and also bordered the digis using Black Pigma Marker. I hand - drew these little musical notes and Salt/Sugar/Honey bottles using white and black gel pens. I was done then! :)

A Birthday Wall Hanging

Hellooo Dear Bloggers!!

I am super excited for this week's post as I am the Guest Designer for Not Just Cards Challenge!! Well, it is my first time on a design team and I am really fascinated by it!! ;)

A lot of things came across my mind while deciding what to make. So, I came up with "A Birthday Wall Hanging". A new concept but I loved experimenting.

The Digital Stamp that I have used is from Imagine That "Nelly's Party" which you can find here. I Fuzzy cut them out and colored them using weathered wood, worn lipstick, red firebrick, mowed lawn, wild honey, seedless preserves distress ink. I added a red card stock cut out and a wooden die cut near this image. I created this little birthday banner by distress the triangular cut out and used textures on them.

I have added 6 panels (2 horizontal and 4 vertical). I used textures using Crafter's workshop stencil and distress ink - weathered wood and wild honey.

For the tag, I printed a Digital Sentiment from the same stamp set and made a tag out of it. I added a patterned paper behind it and made this.

I have used Versamark and Gold Embossing Powder for finishing off this Wall Hanging. This is something new to me and I am loving it! I used Bo Bunny- To the Point Stamp set for the golden finishes.

Here is another look at the Wall Hanging:

Girly Cradle w/o Die Cuts

Hellooo Dear Crafters!!

I am CASEing a 3D craft inspired by a Tutorial showing how to make a Pram which you can find Here. However, I am going to make this without using die cuts. I have made the circles using Rounders and then created the Cradle. I have decided to gift this to my Brother as he is blessed with a baby girl. Red and Pink combination looks really cute so I decided to go for it! :)

I cut 5-6 strips of pink handmade sheet. I punched one side of it using flower punch. Make 2 semicircles out of the circle created and add 4 circular wheels to it.

I cut out a FREEBIE Clipart and coloured it using distress ink. I hand wrote the sentiment at the bottom.

Here is another look at the Cradle :)

I am entering this creation for the following challenge:

No Stamping Patch Work Tag!

Hey bloggers!!
Here is a tag that I present to you without using Stamps(Digi , Rubber or Clear)! This is quite challenging after you are smitten by stamping!
So, here is a tag where I have used "Patch Work". We all have useless newspapers with us. So, I decided to make some use of it. I made patch work out of it and I have distressed it with "Old Paper" and "Weathered wood" ..It gives your tag a "Muddy" look! :D

I have added the Thank you sentiment(not by using stamps) but I cut out the fonts from the newspaper and decided to use it! I embellished the tag using mowed lawn and Salty Ocean triangles and decorated using flower punch.

Here you go now, the "Thank You"tag is ready! :)
