Shop Your Scraps - Striped Backgrounds

Hello Everyone!!!

Last week while organizing my card-stock and patterned papers, I realized that over the past few years I have accumulated a lot of paper scraps. I have always thought about throwing them away, but I can't come to do that. So I have decided to make cards just using those scraps.

While I was at it, I felt that it would be a good idea to share the process of creating those card ideas with you, thus I will be showcasing a new card idea using just scraps on my blog every month. How is that???

So let see this month's cards.

Technique: The technique is really very simple. I have created a short video to explain the process. I hope that helps.

I am submitting these cards to :

• Stamp Ink Paper # 109
• Crafty Sentiment - Anything Goes Challenge
• TTCRD Anything Goes Challenge
• Happy Little Stampers July Anything Goes with Die

I hope you all liked it. I would love to hear back from you all. Thank you very much for taking your time to notice it. Hope to hear again from all of  u soon. Till then take care. :)

PS: If my posts inspire you to create something on similar lines, I feel highly flattered. But please, do respect the effort I take in conceptualizing and executing, please give a direct link to my work when you are inspired by mine. Thanks for understanding :-)

Pretty in Pink Birthday

      

Hello Everyone!
Today I have a simple & elegant card for you all. The sketch inspiration is from Mojo Monday #435 & color inspiration is from Fusion Card.

 

 Here is my card

I started off by cutting 2 panels of pink card-stock (2.75 x 4.75 inches), taped it to Simon Says Stamp - Trellis Grate stencil & blending Distress ink - Spun sugar. Adhered these 2 panels to slight bigger white panels. Later taped both the panels to grey card-stock and pasted the entire thing on white card base (5 x 7 inches). Stamped the sentiment from Stampendous -  Birthday Wish set using Distress ink - Chipped sapphire on white card-stock. Die cut a navy blue card-stock using Spellbinders - Fleur De Lis Squares and adhered the sentiment panel to it. Using foam tape attached the sentiment panel to main card base. Finally to add finishing touch punched out butterflies using Marth Stewart puch and adhered it near the sentiment. 

I'm submitting this card to Mojo Monday #435 & Fusion Card - Pretty in Pink.

I hope you all liked it. I would love to hear back from you all. Thank you very much for taking your time to notice it. Hope to hear again from all of  u soon. Till then take care. :)
