Wonderful birthday wishes with checkered florals

Hi Friends,

I just came to know about a new blog challenge by some super talented crafty friends and was eager to participate.

As I am running out of time because today is last day to participate, I won't write a long post.

Have a look at what I tried for "checkered floral" the Theme of this months "the twised challenge"challenge. 

I have made the checkered background on a plane watercolour paper using a chevron stencil from MFT. This checkered background I had alreday made for a card and out of the left paper I made the flowers. Stamped the floral image as well as leaves with archival jet black ink and fussy cut the images.

As u can see I have created a frame window in the middle of the card and used a embossed border to give it an enhanced look.

adhered the floral and leaves in the middle and stamped the sentiment in the middle of inside of the card.

Finally I added some glitter with wink of stella pen on flowers. It is clearly visible in my close up images.

Few more close ups ....

Hope u like my attempt...

Love,

Shadow box card

Hi friends,

Hope you all are enjoying crafting.

I am Sabiha again this week with my new inspiration post, Its a SHADOW BOX CARD..... made using Expressions crafts beautiful "HOT AIR BALLOON STAMP SET"

When I recently saw a shadow box card video by talented crafter "Jennifer Mcguire" I was sure that I am going to make one such card and the very next thought was stamp set by Expressions craft.
I would like to add here that I got equally inspired by Paru Mahtani who shared so many lovely shadow box cards on IG.This card is also a Masuline card made for Fathers day.

This stamp set was just perfect to make this card and I am proud to use such best quality Indian brand stamps...

Lets first have a look at my card ....

Hope u all guys like my card and now it must be clear how a shadow box card looks.

I stamped few balloon and cloud images from the stamp set on a smooth water colour card stock coloured and fussy cut them.

Took a 8 1/2 by 11 1/2 card stock for the card. Cut two pieces to make 5 1/4 by 8 1/2 size two card stocks. One serves the base card and another for the box.

I took one extra card stock little smaller than the inner half to make the skyline background.

For the front cover I made clouds using a hand cut stencil from acetate sheet and adhered the Balloon and clouds to make a scene.

Added the sentiment using archival black ink.

For the inner box card I made the box, adhered it to the card and before that adhered the background skyline stencilled image to give the depth to the card.

As you can see I have adhered the coloured balloons on the box as well as inside the card.

The scene was ready in no time and it looks so beautiful.

As I wanted to complete the sentiment I added "With you" on the inside of the card.
