Two Cards and a Tag !

Hi friends,
How's everyone been. With the WCMD just gone, I am sure many of you must have created a lot of lovely stuff :) So today I am sharing with you 2 cards. I have made one card for the WCMD Challenge which I have shared on FB as well and another recent card and a tag too. So here's a picture of each of them :-


Well, this card I have already shared on Facebook and I have made it to play along with Let's Get Trendy Now - 2. This is entered for the Day Four- Die Cuts /Punches Challenge      


The second card :-

And this card is also entered for the Let's Get Trendy Now - Day 2- Household Supplies - I have used tissue paper to make this rosette and what's more, I am sharing a short tutorial on how I made it...But as you know, tutorials are picture heavy so here goes...Please bear with me :)                              
For the supplies, I have taken a tissue paper with a nice background design, a masking tape, a piece of white cardstock and the usual scissors, glue and a Scoring Board.

Step 1 : Stick the masking tape over the tissue paper on an entire length. Mine came approximately 12 inches and I then cut out the masking tape on the both sides keeping the tissue paper below. You will notice a nice design will emerge through the transparency of the tape.
     
Step 2 : After cutting out the tape, take a long white cardstock and glue the masking tape to it with the tissue side facing down.

Step 3 :  It will look like this after it's glued and cut.  
 
Step 4 : Using a Scoring Board, start scoring lines every quarter inch along the tape.

This is how it will look after its done. And for those of you who want to know the complete instructions on how to make this flower, you can check it out on YouTube HERE
                                               

And now the tag :-
I am entering this tag for the Lets Get Trendy Now 2 - Day One Washi Tape. I have used faux washi. That is, I have stamped on the masking tape to create this look

Hope you all like my work. But as you can see, this is a long post so I am not listing the supplies used here. But if you have any queries regarding any products, just leave me a comment and I will definitely get back to you :)          

Challenges entered :
1. Sir Stampalot Challenge : Punch away.
2. Unstampabelles : Recycling or Repurposing : Made flower with tissue paper on my second card.
3. The Craft Place : Make your own background (stamped lace background on the first card)

Take care and have a nice day everyone :)

  37. Those creations are quite awesome! I like the black mixed with pink on the first card (and the gingham, and the flowers, and the lace, and the....;) and the all=black background on the second one.

    I like that you do different styles, as the tag is bright and bold, clean and classy.
