Cupcake 207 - Flowers

Cupcake Craft challenge for this week is about Flowers.

Here is the rule:
(extracted from their blog)

--------------------------------------------------------------

Now pay attention peeps! Your image needs to include some kind of flower. We will not be accepting entries that simply have floral paper or some flower embellies! ;)

--------------------------------------------------------------

Luckily enough that I have a clear stamp (I forget which paper craft magazine I get from) where a girl holding a bunch of flowers.

Here is my design to enter this challenge.

A view of my entire card. When I think about flowers, it comes to my mind about girls. So, I wanted to have something red & purple in my card design. Mix & match with embellishment & flower pattern papers, it turns out to be a simple & nice. ^_^

A nearer view of the image. I know that sometimes I have been neglecting my blog post but I was busy coloring some images.... This is one of the image I colored. Nicely stamped & colored. I have been using Luna Aquarrel water color pencil but this image I used the FaberCastell water color pencil. Love it too. Some of the color from FaberCastell are totally pastel in color when your medium mixed with water.

In this Happy Birthday sentiments, the words are heat embossed. It is hardly to see the embossed word here. I added a little bit of color from Sharpie permanent marker. Added some glitters on the stamped image & roses.

Here is my card recipes:

1. Paper & card stock from local stationery shop.

2. Docrafts – Spring Time acid free paper.

3. Doily lace from local store.

4. Distress ink from Ranger distress ink – Aged Mahogany.

5. Glitter glue.

6.  Paper roses from local store. 

Thanks for viewing my design.

Sketch 167 (Card Patterns) & June's Colour Combo Challenge (Daring Cardmakers)

Today I made another card to enter challenges organized by Card Patterns & Daring Cardmakers.
In addition, I made this card specially for one of my friend who's birthday fall in the month of June. I hope she will love it.


In Sketch 167 by Card Patterns, they have provided the sketch layout as below.

Meanwhile in June's Colour Combo Challenge by Daring Cardmakers, they have provided the colour combination of Red, White, and Blue - to celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

Here is my card design to enter both of the challenges.

I added string of thread into the holes & stamped image was colored with Luna Aquarrel watercolour pencil.

Here is the nearer view of the thread. It is thick with some shiny thread in it. I bought this yarn of thread from eCo-cent$. It is real cheap & grabbed a lot of other threads (limited stocks).

In this Happy Birthday sentiments, the words are heat embossed. It is hardly to see the embossed word here. I added a little bit of color from Sharpie permanent marker. A dot of glitter on it.

Nearer view of my ribbon scrap & rhinestone sticker. The ribbon scraps was actually taken from a spoilt paper bag.

This is one of my favorite. DIY the ruffle ribbon by myself. I pulled the thread & make it like a flower. Twist a little bit here and there & stitched on the brown ribbon.

Card recipe:
1. Papers & card stock from local stationery shop.
2. Paper punches using MS Doily Lace & Cherish.
3. Embellishment – rhinestone sticker, scraps (ribbons & strings).
4. Distress ink from Ranger distress ink - Walnut stain & Aged Mahogany.
