{Pin}spirational Challenge #53

 Hi all... I made these cards for the {Pin}spirational Challenge#53.The sponsors this week are Fresh Brewed Designs and Fred She Said...I used Fresh brewed designs image on my first card,the cup and the cupcake ...used copics to color the image.The sentiment "Thanks a Latte" is an ICR's Digi for this month and it seems to fit perfectly with the image so I could'nt resist using it.  

On the second card I used a stamp I had from fiskars..the fun sentiment is from Fresh Brewed Designs.The inspiration picture for this month is attached below.Join me at Pinspirationalchallenges this week.
                             

Thanks for stopping by and do leave a comment so that I can visit you too.

Love you sew much

I created this card as inspiration for ICR's freebies. Yes,you heard me right FREEBIES and believe me they are awesome.I am having so much fun coming up with the cards. These freebies are in appreciation for all the participation we had during the anniversary celebrations at Indian Craft Room.
 To make my card I used the I love you sew much digi...Since the digi had the faux stiching I took out my sewing machine and did some real stitching on the black card stock.For the heart diecut I used my cricut. I loved using band aids in this card as embellishments.

Hi all.... I have wanted to use Cuddlebugcuties on my cards for a long time.I love all of Anna Stillwell's Digis.She does a fabulous job in creating them.With so many challenges with green going on I wanted to create something today  and when I saw this digi on cuddlebug cuties I decided to use Celeste.I have used Tim holtz distress inks to color her.The roses are Patty Gorka's technique. She had used a flower punch but I did not have that punch so I used my cricut to cut out the flower shapes.The small flowers are from my stash and I used sizzix branches with leaf die which I had some left over from one of my previous projects. Hope you all like it and as always appreciate all your comments.

Cherry Blossoms

I am still on a stamping roll.. as well as a shopping spree:) I went and bought some Washi Tapes and a lot of new stamps this week so I decided to try them out.I Stamped the Cherry Blossom from rubber stampede on white cardstock  from recollections.For getting the blue sky effect I used the Tim Holtz Distress ink stamp pad Faded Jeans and for the cherry blossom I used Tim Holtz Distress ink stamp pad Tea dye.For the blooms I used water colors.I wanted to make this a one layer card for ICR's March Challenge  but I couldn't resist adding the washi tape,button and gemstones so its no longer a one layer card but somehow I felt the card needed it and I am happy with how it turned out.Playing along at:

Repeated Stamping

          Its the beginning of a new month and it also means its time for a new challenge at ICR(ICRC27).This month the theme is to do a ONE LAYER CARD + REPEATED STAMPING!...Isn't that awesome.
Basically One Layer Card means it should just be a base card... you cannot have any layers on it.
           I know many of you who are stampers will love this challenge.For some it might be difficult to keep the card one layer if they love to add embellishments.Since it is a one layer we cannot add any. No additional card stock for sentiments or any thing else.Texture can be added on the card base by doing Embossing (Wet or dry), piercing holes in the card base etc.I played with my stamps and this is what I came up with for the design team inspiration.

I took a square stamp with a little design on it and stamped it like a patchwork design  and added a scroll stamp  and used watercolors on the butterfly.
Hope you all like it and would love to hear your comments.

Pinsipiration Challenge

I created this card for ICR's Anniversary Challenge 2 --- It is called Pinsipiratoin Challenge.It was so much fun to create this card.I have attached the pinterest picture which I  used for my inspiration and the link below.I loved the black,white and blue in the picture.  I wanted to keep my card very clean and simple with  a splash of blue...So I used the butterflies and the blue cardstock like ribbon to give me the color.
