Hang in there! – CAS card

~ Sathya ~ 7 Comments
Hi Friends,

Am here today with a card, which have been coloring for past 3 days…Yeah..adding colors layer by layer in bits…Coloring on kraft cardstock is such a learning and i absolutely enjoyed this learning process.

  • Beautiful digi is from Powerpoppy’s Magnolia Sunshine.
  • Printed on to a backing sheet of packaging (5×7″) 
  • As its a packaging sheet and not exact cardstock for coloring, its pretty challenging to layer the colors. Yet its such a learning.
  • Colored this using Prisma colored pencils.
  • Trimmed and matted on to light kraft colored A2 top fold cardbase, with vellum as backing.
  • The sentiment is added directly on to the card front and a beautiful sentiment on inside too with  a bit of those florals peeking in.
  • Absolutely loved working with this digi set and the uplifting sentiments 🙂 
Hope you too like it!!
Happy Coloring!

You are Amazing!!

MHK Designer April Inspiration

~ Sathya ~ 2 Comments
Hi Friends!

Today with MHKDesigns’ DT inspiration using Stiched Sunflower digi stampset with Sunflower sampler papers. Must say, am addicted to this set of digi papers 🙂

This digi stampset is with such lovely sentiments with the sunflower image.

I love chevron pps and by now you would be aware of it too 🙂
Matted the sentiment using yellow and green chevron pps and matted this on to the brown chevron pp. Wanted the sentiment to be focal point this time.

Colored the sunflowers by Zig clean colorbrush pens and fussy cut it. I love heat embossing and so to make these flower as embellies, I heat embossed those flowers using UTEE clear Ep. At this stage, it just mimics the Sospeso flowers 🙂 Watercolored and fussy cut few leaves and added these below the sentiment frame using foam adhesives and completed the card by matting it on to a white A2 cardbase.

Thank you for stopping by!
