Holiday Card Boot Camp - Beautiful Ornament

I have enrolled in in Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire's Holiday Card Boot camp. If you are interested I think you can still enroll and today is just the first day. There was some ab fab inspiration. This is one of the cards that I did based on the card by Kristina. I am so thankful that she gave us the Ornament file to use as well. I have another card with slightly different colors to share with you tomorrow.

Sorry for the dark photo, I wanted to post this card asap :)) The patterned paper is from a paper collection from Hobby Lobby. It is this beautiful Kraft Paper with patterns on it. Love it. I used Spring Moss and Simply Chartreuse papers from PTI. The Sentiment is from PTI Holiday Spirit Sentiments set. Love this sentiment.

Whipper Snapper and Penny Black Holiday Cards

Hi Friends, Happy Halloween. I am back with some more Holiday cards that I made for Barb's Whipper Snapper and Penny Black holiday card swap on SCS.

The first card uses Whipper Snapper Snowman on Sleigh stamp set. This image itself was so big that there was not much room to decorate. I used the ribbon as a sentiment and added some glittery snowflakes. Another thing is that I stamped this image on kraft card stock and then colored it with copics. I kind of like this look.

 This second card uses Penny Black Welcome Home stamp. I colored this image with Copics and then used a combination of American crafts Paper for this card. I could not get a good photo of this card for some reason.

Bicycle Birthday Wishes

Hi Friends, October is almost ending and we are stepping into winter with the arrival of November. It has been a while since I posted to the blog- things have been a bit hectic at home front and plus I had been mainly doing some scrapbooking and catching up with my Project Life. But I am back with a few posts now.

The card I wanted to share today is a birthday card that I did for KJ's swap on SCS. I used the new Hero Arts + Sizzix  - On the Go Bike stamp and Die combination for this card. I love this new combination of Hero Arts stamp and the open thin framelit die from sizzix combination. It is so easy to stamp and cut.

I used PTI Chartreuse and White CS along with Recollections (From Michaels) Patterned Paper from this card. Some Gingham ribbon from Offray and some PTI Vintage buttons complete the card.

PTI Swap Card and Card Candy

These are the card and card candy that I did for PTI Swap on SCS Hosted by Shannon. I had so much fun making the card candy.

I used the PTI Doily Details die for one of the card candy and I found out that it is definitely easier if you use the metal shim in cuttlebug. And plus after removing the die cut from the die, if there are any paper pieces stuck to the die, you have to remove them completely before reusing the die again, otherwise it does not cut properly.

Wedding Reception - Timed Title

Hello Friends, I made it to Round 3 of "So you think you can scrap" challenge on Colorful Creations. Yoohoo!!

This week's challenge was to create a layout where the title is the actual Time!!! This was indeed a challenge and the more I thought about it, I wanted to use a picture from our wedding and I loved this particular photo from our wedding reception.

I took inspiration from the color of my saree and did the layout with blues and golds. The challenge also involved using a sketch and I just loved the sketch as well. Overall, I am very happy with this layout. I know have a new way of titling the scrapbook pages - use the actual date or time of the event. Neat indeed!!
