Sending Smiles Across The Miles

Another funny card today….and I have been laughing so much while making this one…the expressions on the faces of these Katzelkraft monsters are absolutely hilarious and just perfect for my card….I also decided to use frames for these images to add some interest and depth to my card…

Me And My Daily Papercraft Blog - Handmade By Pri

I die cut the front panel from white cardstock and sponged in some Distress inks to create the background…I have used crushed olive, antique linen, milled lavender and victorian velvet shades of inks…I splattered some water for effect and set this panel aside to dry….

I stamped the monster images on a piece of white cardstock and coloured in the face portions only…..I then die cut the images using the Lawn Fawn mini picture frames dies….I die cut one more set of frames from white card stock and layered the outside frames to add dimension…

Once I knew where my frames were going to be placed on my card, I stamped the sentiment on the front panel and adhered it to a plain white card base…I adhered all the frames to my card and then added some tiny pink stars to embellish it..

Thanks for visiting today…Have a lovely & blessed day ahead….Happy crafting…!!

Colourful Clouds And Fairies Birthday Card

I have used quite a few Distress Ink colours for the background of my card but have actually managed keep the images and sentiment in focus and not the background…the cute fairy images are from a stamp set by The Greeting Farm called Little Fairies..

I started by die cutting the front panel from white cardstock using the large stitched rectangle die and then used some Distress Inks and the MFT mini cloud stencil to create the background…I have sponged the inks lightly and these are the shades I used – salty ocean,squeezed lemonade,spun sugar,twisted citron and shaded lilac..

I stamped the sentiment at the base of this panel using black ink and then adhered it to a plain white card base..

On a separate piece of white cardstock,I stamped and coloured in the two fairies and then cut them out and adhered them onto the card using some thin adhesive foam squares…I used a few pink and gold sequins to embellish my card…

Thank you for visiting my blog today…Hope you will have a lovely & blessed day ahead….Happy crafting…!!

Twice The Wishes

I’m sharing a very colourful birthday card today and I loved creating the background for it..Distress Inks are still my absolute favorites..I also like the bright pink candles on it…

I started by die cutting the front panel of the card from white cardstock using a stitched rectangle die…I used three dies from the MFT mini scallop rectangle stax to emboss this panel…

Then using some scrap paper and an edge die,I created a few masks which I used with distress inks to create this colourful background…I splattered some water on this panel and quickly dabbed it with a paper towel..

On a separate piece of white cardstock,I stamped the candles using a dark pink dye ink and the flames using yellow ink…I cut out each one of the candles and adhered them to the card front using some adhesive foam underneath…

I stamped the sentiment on a large white banner and adhered it on top of the candles….I embellished my card using some very tiny Nuvop drops…

Thank you for stopping by to take a look at my card today..Have a lovely day…Happy crafting…!!

Two Cards With Purple Flowers In Focus

For both my cards today, I coloured the focal flower images using the colour purple…..they may look pretty similar but I have used different techniques to create them…

For my first card I chose a plain white card base and die cut the top layer from white cardstock as well using a large dotted rectangle die..

Next,I stamped the leaf images from the Altenew Peony Scroll stamp set using watermark ink and heat embossed it using silver embossing powder..

Then on a separate piece of cardstock,I stamped the flowers and a few more leaves and heat embossed them using silver embossing powder as well…I coloured these images using Gansai Tambi watercolours and cut them out once dry and placed them onto the card front…

I stamped the sentiment on a strip of white cardstock ad cut it out and placed it on the card as well..

My second card is different from the first one in a way that I have not used any embossing in this one and used grey dye ink to create the background instead….

The card base is a light lavender colour and the top layer has been die cut from white cardstock using a stitched rectangle die on which I stamped the flower images to create the background…I die cut a label and stamped the sentiment and placed it on the card using some craft foam behind it..

On a separate piece of cardstock,I stamped a few of the flower images using black ink and coloured then in using Spectrum Noir markers…I added one flower behind the label and another above it for a bit of dimension…

Finally I added a few black Nuvo drops and my card was ready…here’s a closer look of this card..

I’m so glad you stopped by to take a look at my cards today….Hope you will have a beautiful day ahead…!!

Thanks For Being So Awesome

I used a Paper Smooches cat stamp recently and wanted to make a card using another one of the cute critters ,so I pulled out the Chubby Chums set as well as a new sentiments stamp set called Uplifters to make a quick card…and I just love it when quick cards turn out as good as this one did..

I started with a plain white card base and a white die cut top layer…I used a stripey stencil and broken china Distress Ink to create the background…to make it a bit interesting, I splattered some silver paint on it…once dry,I stamped the sentiment using black ink and adhered the top layer to the card base….

I stamped the cute moose on a separate piece of cardstock and coloured it in using Spectrum Noir markers…I cut it out and applied a bit of glossy accents on it and once it was dry,I adhered it to the card front using some adhesive foam squares….

To embellish my card I have used quite a few blue and silver star sequins…

I really appreciate you taking the time to visit my blog…thank you…have a beautiful and crafty day ahead…!!

Amazing – That’s What You Are

I chose softer colours for today’s card…since I usually choose bright colours,to make cards with soft colours I have to keep reminding myself to stick to the plan… 🙂

The card base is made from lavender colour textured cardstock and I have die cut white cardstock using stitched rectangle die for the front panel…I covered this panel with shaded lilac,iced spruce and weathered wood Distress inks….I then used stitched star dies to dry emboss this panel as well…

On a separate piece of white cardstock,I stamped one of the fairies from the Penny Black stamp set and coloured it in..I cut it out and applied some glossy accents on it and let it dry before placing it on the card…

I die cut the word ‘Amazing’ using blue shimmer cardstock and then using blue craft foam,layered them before adhering it to the card…I stamped the rest of the sentiment on a strip of blue shimmer cardstock as well…

To embellish my card I punched out butterflies from a piece of cardstock on which I had applied some blue watercolour…I also added a tiny purple rhinestone on each of these butterflies…Here is a close up shot of the fairy..

Thank you for your visit today…I’m glad you stopped by my blog…Have a wonderful day ahead…!!

Two Cute Piggy Cards – My 500th Blog Post

Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today…it’s my 500th blog post…it’s been two years of blogging for me and I’m amazed at how encouraging and lovely the cardmakers all over the world are and am thankful to all…

Now to the cards I’m sharing today…the piggy stamp I’ve used are from set that has been aptly named ‘Sow Much Cuteness’ by MFT Stamps….all the images are super cute and the sentiments are great as well…today I’m sharing two cards that I have made with this set..

For my first card I chose a white card base and a die cut dark blue top layer…I then used a self made cloud stencil and white pigment ink to create the cloud background on the blue top layer…this technique was shown by Jennifer McGuire in one of her tutorials – 6 Quick Stencil Techniques and it has taken me so long to try it out..

I then die cut a grassy border from lime green cardstock and adhered it to the base of the top layer…I stamped the sentiment using watermark ink and heat embossed it with white embossing powder and then adhered this top layer to the card base…

On a separate piece of cardstock,I stamped the piggy images,coloured them in and cut them out before placing them on the card using some foam squares..I punched three small butterflies from pink glitter cardstock and used them to embellish my card…

For my second card I used a white card base as well as a white top layer….to create the scene of a jumping piggy on this card I first die cut clouds from blue and white glitter cardstock as well as a rainbow from white cardstock(which my younger daughter coloured in using Distress Inks)…once these were adhered to the top layer,I used a large stitched rectangle stencil to cut off the excess before adhering it to the card base…

Now all I had to do was add the coloured in piggy image using foam squares,stamp the sentiment and add a cute butterfly and my card was ready…

Hope you liked these cards…Thank you so much for stopping by….Hope you will have a happy and blessed day ahead…!!

A Fairy Spinner Card

Interactive cards are so much fun…to make and to give…I don’t know why I wasn’t making them more often…today I’m sharing my very first slider card…

I chose a light blue textured cardstock for the card base and then die cut watercolour cardstock for the front of the card using a stitched rectangle die….I then sponged in some distress inks to create the background of the front panel..I have used shaded lilac,wilted violet and seedless preserves here…then using blueprint sketch distress ink and stars stencil, Printed the stars all over the panel…I also splattered some white paint on it..

Next,I started to assemble the spinner part of the card…firstly I cut out a coloured in image of the little fairy and then prepared the spinner disc by adhering two circle die cuts on each side of the disc…one circle gets attached to the back of the fairy image…

I then die cut the spinner channel out of the top layer I prepared earlier and adhered craft foam behind the front panel…I slotted in the fairy into the channel and then adhered the panel to the front of the card…

The spinner part is now ready,so all I had to do now was to add the sentiment and a few embellishments…

I have added a small video on my Instagram account if you’d like to see how this spinner card works/spins..

Thanks for stopping by to take a look at my card today…Happy crafting…!!

You Can Always Lean On Me

These happy hedgehogs from MFT are adorable aren’t they??I just need to add them to a card and it instantly adds cuteness to it…this time I made a simple one layer card using this stamp set with the sentiment banner on top…

On a die cut watercolor cardstock card front,I stamped the hedgehogs,grass and the little butterfly using black ink and then die cut a circle using some scrap paper….with that circle die cut I created a mask for the stamped area and used Distress Inks to create the background…the shades I have used are abandoned coral,candied apple,fired brick and ground espresso…I spritzed a bit of water for effect and once dry,I removed the mask…

I coloured in the images using Spectrum Noir markers and created a small banner to stamp the sentiment on…and finally I have used a few clear sequins to embellish this card…

I’m so glad you stopped by to take a look at my card today….Hope you will have a beautiful day ahead…!!
