 Hi Friends,

Am here today with a floral card using Simon says stamp’s June 2018 Kit: Beautiful flowers. I just purchased this Kit for these beautiful floral spray and florals, along with pretty big fonts of lovely sentiments.

Over to my card,

  • Stamped the floral spray onto Strathmore Toned Tan Sketch paper using DI- Antique Linen as it is the lightest tone I use for Noline coloring.
  • I colored the florals with Copics Ciao – My ever first coloring using those markers!!! 
  • (DH bought Copics Ciao 75 markers set (Taiwan Only) during his visit to India this time.
  • Given shadows and highlights using Prisma colored pencils.
  • Die cut using MFT Stitched rectangle die.
  • Stamped sentiment from the same stamp set.
  • Mounted the focal panel onto a Olive green A2 sized card base using foam adhesives.
Hope you like this simple card. 
I appreciate you stopping by!
Like to see more of my projects, do give a follow over on my Instagram (@sathyakala.23) and/or follow my blog if you haven’t already.
Happy Crafting!

Be Brave!

Hey Hi All,

Am still sticking and challenging myself onto making of some non-floral cards…Yay bit away from my pencil coloring, watercoloring of florals.

And for today, it’s a Butterfly card.

To me, Butterfly symbolises a “Free spirit”. And it goes wherever it pleases and pleases wherever it goes.

  • Took a watercolor paper and trimmed a bit to fit a 4×6″ Top fold cardbase.
  • Mixed HNDMD paper texture paste and Brusho -Limegreen to get a beautiful shade of green.
  • Applied this prepared paste over the panel using TCW ‘Art is’ stencil diagonally and applied plain paper paste to rest of the areas.
  • Love this texture paste as it just mimics a handmade paper texture.
  • Centrally splashed Smooch-Spritz golden yellow for a warm glow.
  • Stamplorations -Trendy butterflies2 large butterfly is gold heat embossed, fussy-cut and topped over die-cut leaves to create a focal element.
  • Sentiment from same stamp set is stamped using Memento black ink on to a strip of paper and added to the focal panel.
  • Matted this over cardbase and added few green enamel dots to finish off the card.
Hope you like it!

Spring Floral card : Janesdoodles Digitals

~ Sathya ~ 12 Comments
Hi All,

My dear Mom’s birthday today and made a floral card for my Plant Nerd Mumma 🙂

She absolutely love plants and religiously maintains a huge garden at my hometown. This blog is the sample of her creative streaks which she transferred. Such a fabulous oil painting artist she is and all my childhood days were spent watching her create layers and layers of those artistic paintings.

Way back in 2011, this day, I made a handmade Quilled birthday card to Mom and from that there wasn’t no looking back…The moments were in search of “Me time” when little one was just 2 yrs old and I ended up to this wonderland of Art and Handmade rightly!! Kind of soul-seeking!

Over to the card for today!





  • Printed Janesdoodles digital image onto a Strathmore toned gray sketch paper.
  • Colored using Prisma colored pencils.
  • Fussy cut the florals and set aside.
  • Took a white A2 sized top fold card base.
  • Stenciled with Altenew limestone ink using Altenew’s Classy stripes stencil.
  • Generously splashed watered white paint over fussy cut florals and set aside for air drying.
  • Stamped SSS sentiment using Mudra Mai black ink.
  • Mounted the floral bunch using foam adhesives.
  • Added few enamel dots to finish off the cards.
Hope you like it!
Happy Crafting!

Stay Safe, Stay Home, Much Love!!

Hi Friends!

Whipped up a quick card using this SSS rainboot die, which I colored during Kathyrac’s daily marker coloring challenge.

This finishes my card!
