With Love | Shaker Tag!

Hello friends,

Today I am sharing a shaker tag which I had created to play along the Winnie and Walter 3rd Birthday Challenges. It's my first ever shaker tag and I have shared about it on my Instagram with a small video. If you follow me on Instagram I am sure you have seen this before :)

Here's a look at my tag :

To create my tag, I first die cut a tag window using the Lawn Fawn Tag You're It die. I then added a piece of acetate on the back side. The back panel of the shaker tag is stamped with the  Mini Scenery: Multigrain using the Aqua Mist ink from Papertrey Ink. Then I added some sequins to the centre and foam mounted my acetate panel on it. The focal flower and leaves are from my all time favorite Winnie and Walter Set : The Big,The Bold and The Extras. I have stamped the flowers and leaves using Altenew Crisp Inks. The sentiment of the tag is from the Happiest of Holidays with Evelin T Designs. Finally I finished my tag by tying some colorful Jute cords on the top.

I will be entering my tag in the following W & W challenges:

1. Sequin Challenge with Kate
2. Bright Colours Challenge with Lydia
3. Mood Board Challenge with Heather P {Inspired by the Teal, Black and the Florals from the picture}
4. Three Challenge with Shay (I have used three colors on my tag - Red, Teal and Green)

I hope you like my tag. Do let me know your views on it. Thanks for stopping by!

You are my Home | Shaker Card

Hello lovely people,

I am back to share another card that I have created for the Winnie and Walter 3rd Birthday Celebrations.This time it's a cutesy shaker card. My first one ever..Can you believe it !! I seem to have finally joined the Shaker Cards bandwagon so late!
Well, now that I have that off my chest, here's a look at my card and some details on how I created it .
                                             

For my card, I first blended some Tumbled Glass Distress ink on my card panel on the top and added a few drop of water to bleach out the color from certain areas. Then I die-cut a circle window from it using my Spellbinders Circle dies. I knew I wanted to create a shaker window so I added some ink blending and stamping on an another piece of cardstock which was to be layered below the die cut window. I colored and fussy cut the bird, branch and the house which are from the Winnie & Walter - Happiest of Holidays with Evelin T Designs, In Bloom: Hollie's Festive Florals and Our Town stamp sets respectively and popped it on a foam base on my card panel. Finally stamped my sentiment from the W & W - Happiest of Holidays with Evelin T Designs set on the front panel along with the hearts. I filled my die-cut circle with sequins and adhered a scalloped frame over it and foam mounted this panel onto the stamped panel and glued it to my card base.

I am entering my card in the following Winnie and Walter challenges :

1. Cute Critters Challenge with Gayatri
2. Sequins Challenge with Kate
3. Ink Blending Challenge with Vanessa
4. Three Challenge with Shay (I have used three different stamp sets from Winnie and Walter on this one)

Hope you like my card. Please do drop in your comments I love to hear from you.

Have a nice day everyone :)

Winnie and Walter 2nd Birthday Bash!

Hello friends,

I have a card to share today and this was made for the challenges that are taking place at the Winnie and Walter blog for their second birthday bash. There are a couple of fun challenges there and I have chosen to play along with a few :) Here's a look at my card first :

I created this card based on color challenge put by Heather P. The colors she chose for her challenge theme are so my kind of colors that I just had to play along with  it :) 

To make my card, I have used the W&W Thanks die and their floral stamp sets In Bloom: Anna's Flora, In Bloom : Elsa's Flora and In Bloom : Hollie's Festive florals. The stamped sentiment is from The Big, the Bold and You set also from Winnie and Walter.

I have colored the flowers and leaves using a few of PTI inks and Distress inks ..For the chartreuse green and aqua color, I have used the PTI dye inks the coral is from Hero Arts Peach ink and Abandoned Coral Distress ink.

I have very lighty colored my card base using Cracked Pistachio Distress ink and put some gold splatters using Heidi Swapp Color Shine Gold mist.

Used a gold glitter washi on the side of my card to finish it up.

I am entering this card for the following challenges :

Winnie and Walter - Color challenge with Heather P

Winnie and Walter - Gold + Watercolor challenge with Heather H

Winnie and Walter- Floral challenge with Lydia

Hi friends,

I have a quick card to share today. A few days ago I was lucky enough to win a spot in the current Online WaterColor Card Class (Exploring Mediums) by the very talented Jennifer McGuire  and friends..They have such awesome teachers and I got to learn tons from this class.

My card is based on the Day 2 Class Homework which was exploring traditional watercolor mediums like Tube paint's, Distress inks and Watercolor cakes...For my card though, I have used the Altenew Dye inks to do my coloring and I have followed the technique that Jennifer Rzasa taught using Distress inks and solid image stamps ...Before I explain further, here's a look at my card :

 To begin with,  I did try out the stamping with Distress inks but found no success .. In the process also managed to spoil one of my  finished card panel's when I got clumsy with water  and brush  :(.... I have used the Altenew Lacey Scrolls stamp set for the solid image stamping ....The inks I used are Altenew Grapevine and Ruby Red for the flowers and the PTI Simply Chateruese ink for the leaves and foliage...Once I stamped the flower, I went in with a wet brush and blended the colors and kept adding a bit more of Grapevine ink which I had smooshed on my acrylic block. Finally ended my card with a few ink splatter's using the Grapevine ink and die cut sequins from the Mama elephant Confetti die..I really missed not having real sequins in gold to add to my card :(
My card colors and design are inspired from this time's Altenew challenge ..Here is a look at the beautiful  inspiration picture :

Also entering my card in the current Lulupu challenge Sparkle and Shine.
Hope you all like my card ...Do leave your views regarding it ...I love to hear from you :)
Have a nice day everyone !!
