Old+New Products: A Project with Altenew

~ Sathya ~ Leave a comment

Hi All,

Am excited to join an Instagram Hop with Altenew for their #Altenew10thAnniversary with designers and guests across the globe.

Over to my card,

  • Have used both old and new products for making this card.
  • Scallop Frame Embossing Folder
  • Daisy Bed Embossing Folder
  • Plum Blossom Layering Die set – Used this die set to cut florals from paper pad and embossed it using embossing tools.
  • Poured Acrylic 6×6 Paper pad
  • Happy Sentiments Stamp and Die set with Desert Night dye ink cube
  • Dry embossed panels as shown using embossing folders and popped the florals at different dimensions using foam adhesives and liquid adhesive.

Instead of using colored cardstocks or white cardstocks with alcohol coloring, my idea is to diecut from pattern paper to bring out the freshness by embossing the petals and sculpting it. The lighter and darker dry embossed panels makes the florals to pop against the background. Hope you like the idea.

The Flower Challenge#90 | Add Layers | Reminder | Altenew

~ Sathya ~ 2 Comments

Hi Friends.

Am here back again to share a floral card for The Flower Challenge blog with the theme ‘Add Layers’

So this time, you have to add layers and the main focus needs to be florals as always.

Over to my card,

  • Took a 4X5.25″ card panel from Altenew’s poured acrylic pp pack.
  • Dry embossed it with Altenew Motif Tile 3D embossing folder.
  • The dry embossing shows the white core of the pattern paper at many places, which actually adds up to the elegance of the card here.
  • Then I diecut few floral sprigs and leaves from Altenew Itty Bitty Branches die set using from same pp pack.
  • These are arranged over a rectangular frame, which was die cut from Altenew’s rounded rectangles die set.
  • Altenew Fancy Hello Die set word die from white cardstocks are added above as in pic.
  • Then finally all mounted onto an off white A2 sized top fold card base.

Hope you like this simple card.

The Flower Challenge#88 |Add a Heart |Reminder | Brutus Monroe

~ Sathya ~ 2 Comments

Hi Friends,

It’s time for the reminder card at The Flower Challenge blog with the theme ‘Add a Heart’. 

This time, used a brand new die set from my stash. Of course made use of my Gemini Junior (yet another new in my stash) which was lying for more than 1.5 yrs was put to use to diecut this beautiful intricate die set. Such a clean crisp cut in just one go!! It was too hard to photograph cards made of mirror cardstocks, tried my best not to cast shadows and got few decent clicks.

Over to my card,

  • Used Brutus Monroe ‘With Love’ Die set for the intricate diecut as well as the scripty word ‘love’ .
  • Made use of gold mirror cardstocks for the diecuts.
  • Love scripty word alone is diecut twice and doubled up to get an embossed effect.
  • These diecuts are added to A2 sized ivory white cardbase as shown.
  • Few store bought flowers in pink shades, embellishments like little hearts and pearls are added as accents.

Hope you like this sweet simple card.

The Flower Challenge#87 |Spellbinders | Use Gold

~ Sathya ~ 4 Comments

Hi Crafty peeps,

Am sharing today the card made for the current challenge at The Flower Challenge. This time theme is ‘Use Gold’ and as always florals are to be in focus. You can use Gold heat embossing, Gold diecuts, Gold glitter cardstocks, Gold glitter washitapes or even Gold mirror cardstock just like me for diecuts.

Over to my card,

  • This time thought to play with just diecuts. Actually a recreation of my earlier card with a bit of new additions. December is such a merry season and I would love to play with my christmas stamps, dies, white sparkly embossing powders only during that time of the year.
  • Made this lovely holiday card using dies from Spellbinders-Amazing paper grace Petite Lacy dies and Twisted Oval Elegant dies.
  • Florals aren’t colored this time rather added Fussy cut white florals from Embellishment sheets. This season called for some white florals.
  • Sentiment is added to the inner oval diecut.
  • Few pearls, enamel dots are added as accents.

Hope you like it!
