Hello..

New month comes with a brand new challenge at INDIAN CRAFT ROOM

Here is the Challenge for the month of May

ICRC29 – Card with Elements and a “Theme” Twist

You have to use atleast 3 ELEMENTS on your card which you will find on our DT Blogs.

You can use more than 3 elements if you like..

So that means you will have to visit each of the 5 DT Blogs to find all the elements..

& then you have to visit the ICR Blog for the TWIST..

My element is: 

Ribbon!  

& here is my card...

For this card I have used Kraft base.

The top panel was stamped with sheet music stamp & the embossed with my new Couture Creations- Trellis embossing folder..

The swirly & flowery design adds a very feminine touch to the card & goes well with the butterfly..

Then I inked the whole panel with Vintage Photo & adhered it to the card base with foam tape to give it some dimension..

Next I stamped the butterfly & distressed it with Mowed Lawn & Vitage Photo..

Then I fussy cut it added some black pearls to the center & adhered it to the card..

I added some ribbon & rhinestones for the finishing touch...

Be sure to list the three elements that you've used, when posting your cards.

ICRC28

Hello...

We have a brand new challenge in ICR.. 

ICRC28 :

Create a Card/Project with speech bubble(s) and the TWIST is to have a witty or Pun Intended sentiment on the project.

And below is the card I made for the DT inspiration post...

This challenge is way out of my comfort zone... 

I rarely use sentiments in my cards & using a witty sentiment was a challenge in itself.. 

& that too with a speech bubble...!!!

So it took a lot of time to come up with something I liked...

But I enjoyed it...

This is one of the things I am loving about being in a Design Team...

I get to try new things which probably I wouldn't have tried on my own... :)

The sentiment is computer generated..

& then cut in a shape of speech bubble...

I inked it to make it pop out... 

& then applied an outline of clear holographic glitter glue..

The numbers are stamped with various inks & coated with clear holographic glitter glue..

Hop on to ICR for some great inspiration by the Design Team & to play along...

Pichkari Blog Hop

Welcome to Pichkari Holi Blog Hop by ICR Team. You can start at ICR Forum and get all the deets on the Blog Hop.

Holi is also called the Spring Festival - as it marks the arrival of spring the season of hope and joy. The gloom of the winter goes as Holi promises of bright summer days. Nature too, it seems rejoices at the arrival of Holi and wears its best clothes. Fields get filled with crops promising a good harvest to the farmers and flowers bloom colouring the surroundings and filling fragrance in the air. 

For me holi is all about the delicacies my mom prepares..

Dahi Wada & Pua are a must on this day...

I am not a big fan of playing holi specially with wet colours...

but I love playing with colours... on paper..  :)

So without any further ado here is the card I prepared for this blog hop...
It is inspired by a card I saw...
I always wanted to make something like that...
& this was the perfect occasion...  

All colourful & cheerful ... Just like this festival of colours & joy...
I have made few changes... I wanted the colours to have very soft edges & mixing smoothly into one another...

For the background I dropped few drops of each colour on a wet white CS, added some water & let them merge into each other...

After that I added a stamped butterfly in black & highlighted some parts with a white pen..

(I love butterflies & for me they signify happiness...)

& then I doodled the swirls with a black gel pen..

ICRC27 - One Layer Card + Repeated Stamping

Hello..

I know it is a late post but better late than never...

So, here are my cards that I made for ICR DT inspiration..

The challenge for this month is:

ICRC27 - One Layer Card + Repeated Stamping

For the 1st card I stamped the butterfly 3 times & then coloured them in different colours..

I also added some colour to the sentiment..

To finish it off I added some piercing in top right corner..

Here is the 2nd card ..

I have masked the yellow part & distressed it... 

Sprinkled some water.. 

Then stamped the images in black ... 

Added some colour to the flower centers..

And finally outlined & highlighted with gold marker for some bling & faux layer effect.. :)
