Magical Christmas Card

Hello All,

Happy Thursday. Weekend is fast approaching. I did a quick Magical Christmas card using this Bugaboo Digital Stamp set of Harry Potter and sentiment is something I printed on the computer using Harry Potter Font. I used the Freshly Made Sketches #365 for this card.


Here is the Freshly Made Sketches #365 that I used.

Bugaboo Reindeer Card

I was browsing through some blogs and ended up at Pammie's Inky Pinkies Challenge blog. I was happy to have found another challenge blog. More than anything, these challenge me to think a bit more with my cars.

This week's challenge #1845  was "Anything Goes".

I created a quick holiday card using this Bugaboo Reindeer stamp. Sentiment is from Taylored Expressions Wings of Joy Stamp set.



I kept it simple with a few patterned papers. I thought of adding some embellishments, but the patterned paper was bold enough and did not need any extra embellishments.

Joy Holiday Card

Hello Friends,

I created this simple JOY Holiday Card for YNS Sketch Challenge. I love the offset panels in this sketch. This JOY Sentiment is from Taylored Expressions Wings of Joy stamp set. I colored it with copics and used a few patterned papers and snowflake stickers on my card. 


Here is the YNS Sketch for youre reference.

Happy Holidays Poinsettia Card

I am enjoying card making so much. I did this Holiday Greetings Poinsettia card for two challenges.

1. Clean and Simple Cards Challenge - Sketch #298

2. Allsorts Challenge Blog - Week 493 - Poppies and/or the colour red

I did not find a poppies stamp in collection readily. So I went with the color red instead. I used this Poinsettias from PTI's "Year of Flowers: Poinsettias" Stamp set. I stamped them on a text printed paper and then colored over it with Copics. I love how elegant this CAS card looks.


The sentiment is also from the same stamp set. Overall, this card turned out great and I would reuse this sketch to create a few bulk holiday cards. The scalloped border adds very good detail.

PP418 - A Color Challenge

I am not really sure how long my creative streak will last. I am hoping at least till end of this Month for sure, so that I have bunch of Christmas cards to mail to my family, friends and business partners.

Here is another Christmas card that I created using Lawn Fawn's Ornate Ornaments stamp set using The Paper Players - PP418 - A Color Challenge.

The colors were as following. But since I do not buy Stampin Up products, I used the closest colors that I had in my stash.


I used some Grey striped paper from Simple Stories paper collection. I colored the ornament in The Orange red combination that I hope resembles Poppy Parade color. A sentiment completed the card. I I popped up the cut out ornament to give it a bit more 3D effect. I love how this card turned out.

Holiday Happiness Card for MFT Sketch 411

Hello Friends,

Hope you have been busy creating handmade cards and paper crafts. I have been away from this blog for a long time and somehow had lost the creativity mojo. But with Kathy's The daily marker challenge, I have felt revitalized. I have pulled out stamps that I have not literally used since I bought them and have been coloring them and creating cards. So, quite happy and excited. I absolutely love this hobby of mine and glad to be back at it.


Today, I created a card using Taylored Expressions Wings of Joy stamp for MFT Sketch Challenge 411. Sadly, while I do own quite a few MFT stamps, not any Christmas or Holiday stamps. I will rectify this situation soon.

I took some liberties with the sketch and used the hanging socks and mitten stamp from this set as the horizontal line that appears in the sketch. This is a very CAS card, but I just love how it turned out and this is the first time I have colored over a patterned paper and it was fun.
