Being Thankful!

Hey friends!
The year is coming to a close and we have a fresh year to look forward to. I wish to take thsi moment to pause and thank all those who made my crafting journey possible. Family, friends, relatives, co workers, supportes, you awesome blog readers and finally self. Thanks a lot for the belief and hopefully I create better things in the coming year.

I wanted a way to express this and also share it woth others using a simple means of expressions. So I came up with the bunch of tags below.

These bunch were taken off before the blink of an eye actually!
I cut tags of size 2X3 inches from various colored cardstocks and stamped a "I am Thankful For" note on all of them using my Impresso Stamping tool . That is as simple fo that.

I am sure the recipents will love the token of gratitude!!!


Hope you loved this project :)

Love
Uma

Merry Christmas!!!

Jingle Bells all the way and it is the time of year I miss my school and Christmas festivities a lot!!!
Hello friends!

Wishing you all a merry Christmas and happy new year. There are a couple of Christmas cards lined up and here is the first one :)


I stamped the holly tree which is close to 6 inches tall on a white cardstock using Ranger Archival Black Ink and colored using watercolors the leaves and berries. I sponged some lime green chalk ink on the entire tree and cut it out as a triangle.
I then stamped the sentiment in Red cardstock and fuzzy cut it out and adhered to the tree.
I wanted to give a night background to this. So I sponged some Peacock feathers, Blue chalks and tuxedo black inks to give a light sponged effect. Finally added some stars using Signo White Gel pen.

These gorgeous stamps are from CraftyScrappers!

I am in Hog Heaven!!! Feat. MFT stencils and stamps


Hey there!
It is the last month of the year and all around the world there is this festive cheer of Christmas and the upcoming year. Will all that jubilation I have a fun and cute card to share with you all today. Here it is!

I have used the MFT Mixables Paisley stencil with Mementonto Tuxedo black ink an create a background here. Once done, I took a MDF chipboard cutout and painted it white using Camlin Texture Paste. I adhered it onto the centre to define a main focal point. Then I stamped the flying pig from the "Hog Heaven" stmapset from MFT. The sentiment goes perfectly with the image. I simply colored over the image using watercolor pencils.
