Faith can move mountains

Hello everyone,

Nothing will be impossible for you (Matthew 17:20). Faith can move mountains. I truly believe that, with faith, we are able to achieve more than we can ever imagine. It takes great courage to overcome one's fears and take that leap of faith.

So this comes from the new cue by CASology.. FAITH

 This is a strong one isn't it.. Faith!!!
I knew exactly what I wanted to present.. And this is my entry..

Hope you can relate too :) 

Thanks for stopping by.. 😊 

Camping fun during holidays

Hello everyone,

With the last few days of the coloring challenge going on at the daily marker 30 day challenge by Kathy Rac.. I decided to use it the max in the ongoing challenges..

One such challenge is the Male Room Challenge, although I made a card, the little ballerina.. Click on the link below to see that too..

https://thecardogram.blogspot.com/2019/11/little-ballerina.html?m=1


But then I realized that it was a girly card and not a masculine card.. And then I decided to make another card for the challenge such is the camping.. That's really one of the most lovable activities..

I created a scene from the free digital stamps available on the internet and copic colored it..
The wintery night, cool breezy under the moonlight camping with family.. Who didn't like to do that in the holidays.. 😊

Hope you like it.. Till then enjoy time with family..😊 😊 😊

Merry Christmas at TO Challenge

Hello everyone,

Almost a month left for the most awaited time of year.. Christmas.. And my first Christmas card for the season begins with the Time Out Challenge and the inspiration was this 👇

I love the way the template for the challenge is given at the Time Out.. Too innovative..

I had to play this challenge as it really tickles the brain cells.. So I was intrigued by the amazing layering in the image.. The white, gray, plaid, greens and white on red..

Since I didn't have neither the stamp nor the stencil for the plaid, I tried giving it a shot by the hand made plaid pattern with a few image tutorials on the Internet. With red background hand painted with the black broad lines drawn and finally used green and silver lines to complete the plaid look plaid.. Since those fluffy cushions are the main attraction of the image.

Die cut the greens and heat embossed my Merry Christmas sentiments.. I decided to keep the sentiments simple as there is already so much going on in the background.. To break the continuity of the red I used the die cut leaves to make them into the holly as in the image..

I hope you like it.. Wishing all of you happy preparations for the Merry Christmas.. Spread love and kindness 🤶🎄

Magnolia flowers Cupcake Inspiration # 482 and Casology challenge

Hello everyone,

I love the magnolias.. I've been wanting to create some cards and finally I got this lovely set from neat and tangled.. Love the bold outlined stamps..

For this color challenge of red, orange and yellow

I used this stamp set, stamped the flowers using the hero art jet black hybrid ink on the water color paper 100% cotton cold pressed and then colored it using the camlin acrylics.

 I them fussy cut them to create the floral arrangement along my hand cut oval pattern. Pasted them using the 3D foam tape.

Gold heat embossed the sentiments from the same stamp set. Added the droplets of orange and red and handmade the black inkspots.

I hope you like it ❤️❤️😊

CAS CHALLENGE #153

Hello everyone,

I'm so excited to play along aaa cards ( click on  the image to be directed to the challenge). The aaa cards challenge is one the most premier challenge in my opinion for the clean and simple cards. I'm trying tu o improve upon the skills to create the CAS cards.

I keep struggling to find that right stamp in my stash.. But probably this challenge I knew what I wanted to use.. The  pixie stamp set by the craftyscrappers with the shimmer.. So I created this card with pink and yellow pastel clouds the perfect dreamy background for my little pixie.. And stamped my little pixie in the corner as the only focus.. Added the sentiments from the same stamp set.. 😊 

I hope you also notice the sparkles and glitters on the fairy.. Please pardon my photography skills.. I hope you like it 😁😁

You're a treasure - PIRATES

Hello everyone,
I came across this beautiful challenge themed Pirates.. And I had to play this.. Finding treasures has been so intriguing isn't it!!

So when it comes to comes to finding treasures, it had to be a pop up box card.. So I made yours diy box card and used my mft stamps to make this whole scene by the sea shore of the found treasures..

I copic colored my elements and it's including the treasures of box and the coins.. Which I pasted using the double sided tape.. 

The four sides of the card have been given the whole idea of map, with two sides depicting the trails of finding the treasure.. But find the skull.. 💀 

And then stuck the elements abs the sentiments.. 😊 😊 

On the background with the colored card stock one tried to make the lovely waves in the sea.. I doubt if the camera shot it well..

And when you close it.. It says

You're a treasure.. Isn't it fun!!!! 😃

Okay so the whole look of the card... 

I hope you liked it.. ❤️ 

Coffee and books make a perfect blend

 Who doesn't love coffee.. Colder days mama more coffee.. 😁😁😁
How could I miss this so popular coffee loving card makers hop.. So I decided to try something different.. There are already so many beautiful cards filled with coffee to go cups..

That is when I knew wasn't I wanted.. I copic colored the hand drawn image of the girl on the bench....

And then colored the little puppy and my favorite Starbucks to go cup (xl) and placed it next to the girl.. 

I can't get enough of autumn... Bright colors had to come in.. I hand painted the background and pasted my elements using the 3D foam tape.. And then the card was ready.. Coffee and books make a perfect blend!!! 

Hope my coffee themed scene card.. Is a contemporary.. 💛🧡💚

Winter Flora..

Hello everyone,

I'm sure the temperatures would have further fallen down at your places too.. Yes it has at my place but unfortunately we here in India do not have any significant change in the flora except for the Himalayan region.. Since we are a tropical country..

But I'm so fascinated by the snow, winters, pinecones and the coniferous trees that I decided to create one more winter flora card with 🌨 and trees..

Hope you like... The white snow on the trees..
💚💚💚
