We decided to do CAS cards for this blog hop 

CAS cards with PP and sequins

 

here is my card 

 Since we are talking CAS this month at BGC :) 

I went with white card stock.

I stamped a dancing boy stamp from Mica Christmas stamp set. 

I colored him using promarkers 

I did a lot of distressing on the tag with misting .

 Here is a closer look at the sequin

 And ofcourse you can see the lovely stamped sentiment by Whimsy stamps :) 

Hope u all liked my card !

Waiting to hear your thoughts! 

 

Your Next stop is -  Jovita

All boy card ! - Somthing masculine

Hi ya'll 

Hope its been a great easter weekend for u all . 

I am still in Europe :) enjoying my trip 

But i had this card lined up so im never missed :D 

We are playing the "All boy" challenge next at 

Beyond Grey Challenges! 

Where in we are looking for some masculine cards or layouts. 

We have our returning sponsors 

whimsy stamps

with 5 free digi's for the winner ! :) 

So coming back to the card !

I find it very tricky to make masculine cards .... Its totally out of my comfort zone 

so i cant say im very proud of this one here. 

But im surely hoping to see what u guys think. 

So here goes. 

I actually sat with the card base for like 30 mins thinking what i would do with it .... 

Which is totally is pathetic considering im a spontaneous card designer... 

 Anyways i finally just went head one and used all my manly sizzix supplies :D 

I first stamped my cardstock with a watch stamp by inkadinado in potters clay 

Then using the Sizzix Sizzlits Decorative Strip Die - Mini Filmstrip & Mini Tickets

I cut out the super cute film strip.

 Pretty right ? Well i didnt have any tiny pictures but i found the perfect pattern paper 

to fit behind the film strip . The paper u see here is by Echo park , everyday eclectic collection. 

 The frame u see in the center that has the camera on it 

is hand cut .

Next i embossed the ruler using the 

Sizzix Textured Impressions Embossing Folders 2PK - Sewing & Measuring Tape Set

It gives u a whole set of measuring tapes embossed i just cut one of it and inked it.

 And this lovely sentiment is done using Sizzix Sizzlits Die Set 3PK - Card Phrases Set #3

i really like the font of the sentiment. Its really fun. 

Last but not the least comes the camera die :) 

its done using the
Sizzix Movers & Shapers Magnetic Die Set 2PK - Vintage Alarm Clock & Camera Set 

 Please note that since this is a movers and shapers die , which is magnetic basically , 
you will need the  
Sizzix Movers & Shapers Accessory - Base Tray
for using them or a sizzix Pop up base die.   

So thats about it from me :) Hope u liked my work 

Waiting for your thoughts !

We decided to wish u all a happy NEW YEAR with a mini New year card !

The cardstock is a gift from A1 craft supplies ,

I like its texture and it comes in a lot of colors .

 What do u think of the embossed lace ?

I used it from the other side over as i loved it that way. 

Its pretty much hand cut after embossing. 

The embossing folder i have used here is -

Sizzix Textured Impressions Embossing Folders 3PK - Scallop Circle Doily Set

Its got 2 more designs on it , pretty amazing ones you can get more info 

on them here

The doily is another sizzix die 

cut with Sizzix Sizzlits Die Set 3PK - Sweet Treats for You Set 

Super adorable this one - I often use the "For you " sentiment tag from this set 

so i decided to take up the doily this time. 

Know more about this die here

The flowers are handmade and what do u think of my new tilda ?

its one of the wedding gift from Shalini of Crafters Corner :) 

I still get scared of using alcohol markers on the hair , so i use the safe way :) 

 staedtlers by luna (had massive practice of those from college)

 Hope u liked the card . 

PS:: Well i know the photography is a little not up to what i usually do
