  • For the bg, used Gansai Tambi watercolors (Green and Yellow)
  • Finally sprayed generous amount of watered down white acrylic paint.

Stampendous Bouquet for you : Happy Birthday card

~ Sathya ~ 16 Comments

Hiya Friends!

Am still in Spring mood! Yet another floral birthday card here for you all.

This lovely bunch of florals is made using a gift from a dear Crafty friend, Kanan Pandya, whose watercolored cards are my ever favorite!  She has sent me this Stampendous: Bouquet for you Stampset few years ago and I love using it often!

You can check my earlier creations using this stampset here and here

Masked and made into cute floral spray using No line coloring with Fabercastell polychromos pencils. These were colored during Kathyrac’s dailymarker coloring contest. Now made it into a card. I colored the fussy cut ends with black marker to give a neat look.

  • Took a watercolored cardstock.
  • Splashed with water centrally and added Limegreen Brusho crystals over it and heat set it.
  • Went over with Prima Marketing- Finnabair Lightpaste with TCW ‘Art is’ stencil diagonally over the colored portion of the card.
  • Stamped the sentiment from Inspired by Stamping using Memento Black.
  • Matted the panel over A2 sized Black card base by trimming it a bit.
  • The added the fussy cut florals with foam adhesives.
  • Couple of purple fussy cut butterflies with few clear dew droplets to finish off the card.
Hope you like it!

Hi Friends,

Made a quick floral card. Pencil colored these peonies from Power poppy: Dynamic duos clear stamp set several months ago, during Kathyrac’s dailymarker coloring contest. Recolored a bit now to give a fresh look to the peonies.

  • Stamped the peonies onto white cardstock.
  • Colored using Prisma colored pencils.
  • Trimmed and Die-cut using MFT Bracket die.
  • Stamped the sentiment using Memento Black ink on to the kraft colored Top fold A2 sized card base.
  • Mounted the panels on to the kraft to reveal the base sentiment part using Foam adhesives, to raise the panels above the card base.
  • A mini butterfly Mudra Chipzeb is added to the die cut part of panel.
  • Few enamel dots to finish off the card.
Hope you like it!

Happy Hello: Powerpoppy Blossoming Cherry

~ Sathya ~ 20 Comments

Hi Crafty peeps!!

Happy May!

Powerpoppy’s Blossoming cherry digital stamps reminded me of my most wonderful years at Taiwan. This digi is my recent purchase during a slash sale.

I went in for those misty mornings and foggy days of Spring where every square is loaded with Cherry blossoms and Apple blossoms!! The fine fragrance of the scent surely to elate anyone’s day.

Bit of experiment mode I was. So took a watercolor cs and misted with water liberally and dropped in colors of blue and pink (Gansai Tambi watercolors) at adequate intervals to create a hazy bg. Then dried the cs well and ironed it neatly so that it can be fed easily into the printer.

Yay!! Printed the floral sprig with the sentiment in 1 easy go!

Painted the florals using same watercolors and highlighted with Prisma colored pencils.
Then the watercolor cs trimmed and matted to the black cs. Added generous white paint splatters to create a foggy mood to the card. Then mounted on to a white card base.

Few clear dew droplets as accents to finish off the card.

Hope you like it!!

Happy Crafting!

Bowl of Beauty : PowerPoppy

~ Sathya ~ 6 Comments

Hi All,

My dear Mom’s birthday today and made a floral card for my Plant Nerd Mumma 🙂

She absolutely love plants and religiously maintains a huge garden at my hometown. This blog is the sample of her creative streaks which she transferred. Such a fabulous oil painting artist she is and all my childhood days were spent watching her create layers and layers of those artistic paintings.

Way back in 2011, this day, I made a handmade Quilled birthday card to Mom and from that there wasn’t no looking back…The moments were in search of “Me time” when little one was 2 yrs old and I ended up to this wonderland of Art and Handmade rightly!! Kind of soul-seeking!

Over to the card for today!

  • Printed Bowl of Beauty, a digital stamp from Powerpoppy.
  • Colored using Faber Castell polychromes colored pencils.
  • After finishing coloring, the bg around the flowers were made by Zig clean color brush pens.
  • I did a very light hazy bg with a baby blue brush pen.
  • Few enamel dots to finish off the card.
  • The focal panel matted to the black cs.
  • Then it’s mounted onto the 5×6.5″ white card base.
Hope you like it!
Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Crafting!

Authentic Self: Graciellie Designs

Hey Hi Crafty peeps,

Back again here with a floral card. This time, colored a digital image from Graciellie designs : Authentic. Absolutely love the florals, leaves and the sentiments in this stamp. Each sentiment style refers different mood.

It’s my first time, using alcohol markers other than Chameleon pens.

  • Printed digital stamps in the Neenah solar crest white cs.
  • Colored using my new Alcohol markers. Yay! that’s my recent gift of 80 markers. 
  • Using three color combos of light, medium, dark, colored the florals and leaves.
  • Added few white gel pen dots to the leaves and floral stamens.
  • Yet to learn loads as this is entirely different from pencil coloring and watercoloring which am used to!
  • Colored using cool grey on the outline of the floral spray.
  • Then fussy cut the florals and foam mounted onto a geometric patterned sheet (actually its a packaging sheet of a recent purchase)
  • Foam mounted the sentiment banner onto the florals.
  • Added this panel to the white top fold A2 sized cardstock. 
  • Few purple sequins are added as accents.
Hope you like this card.
