Inks used for Sponging:
Pretty Peacock, Shaded Spruce, Bumblebee, and Daffodil Delight.
  • I used Crumb Cake as my base card today followed by the layers Just Jade, Whisper White Sponged using different color combos. 
  •  I Sponged on the Whisper White Cardstock using Pretty Peacock first, followed by the slight shade of Shaded Spruce, next Bumblebee, and then finally I added the Stampin’ Daffodil Delight. 
  • Once I finished Sponging again I sponged using pretty Peacock ink on the top to blend the colors altogether.
  • Then I stamped the images using the Stampin’ Classic Ink Just Jade and White ink on the background sponged Cardstock. 
  • Next splashed some water and frost Shimmer paint on the background to give some water feel to the background.
  • Die-cut pieces are from Just Jade, Mango Melody, Whisper White Cardstock, and Pearl Scented Paper from the Suite. 
  • Stamped the image on Basic Black and heat emboss it using Stampin’ White Emboss Powder. 

Measurements in Metric:

  • Base Card Crumb Cake A4 Card Stock: 27.8 cm by 10.5 cm ( Cut at the half on 27.8 cm on a side, scored and folded at the half at 10.5 cm )

I used the colors: Night of Navy, Seaside Spray, Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight, and Sahara Sand. 

  • Sponged the Shell using Sahara Sand and adhere it using Stampin’ dimensionals , next added the Blue Adhesive Gems using glue. As a final touch I used Forever Greenery Trim and Whisper White Polka Dot ribbon attached it using glue dots. 
  • Inside of the card decorated in the same way as mentioned above.

Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎 This mo Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎
This month, our theme is Die-Cutting, and I decided to highlight trees in my card design.

For my card base, I used Basic Gray, and I sponged the first layer with Blueberry Bushel to create depth and a lovely background for the colourful trees.
 I watercoloured the cardstock before die cutting. I love how this adds a unique touch and brings variation to each tree in colours.

Hello lovely crafty friends, It’s time for anothe Hello lovely crafty friends,

It’s time for another Hop Abroad Insta Hop! 
This month our theme is Fall / Thank You Cards, and for my card I wanted to play with warm colours, lots of layers and a little bit of texture.
I really enjoy making cards like this, where you can keep looking and notice all the little details. I added the embossed background, foliage, ribbon and a few embellishments to give the card some dimension.
