Greetings Everyone:)


How are you all doing??
Today I have a card to share with you all. It's purely inspired by Lydia Evans Altnew Card. I totally loved her card its so beautiful and she's an awesome card maker loved her cards. I have finally opened my pack of long hoarded Altnew Magnolia Stamp set. Its a gorgeous stamp wish I could do something better with the same.

Take a Look...

I have stamped the images with clear embossing powder and heat set it. I have colored them with zig watercolor pens and lastly fussy cut them out. And finally used wink of stella clear pen to add some shimmery effect.

                                                                                   close up

For the base I have done dry embossing and added one more layer of cardstock. Finally have adhered the fussycut pieces of stamped images with double sided tape. And the sentiment is from winnie and walter stamp set.

Supplies Used- 

Altnew Magnolia stamp

Zig color pens

Clear embossing powder

Hero arts charcoal black ink

Winne and walter stamp 

Mama elephant edge die

Craftwell embossing folder

Have a nice day

Hello Fellow crafter's / bloggers / friends and everyone 

How are you all ?? 
Wow I missed everyone so much .... like so so so much.
I missed crafting 
I missed messing around with my craft stuff.
I missed creating stuff.

One year and six months and here I am.And I am feeling that world have become far more advanced in all those missing days ... Gosh I don't know how to start and from where to start. All I know that How much I have missed, so much to learn from everyone and top of it so much to buy all new craft gooodies.(don't we all love that)

I have been missing from blog space for quite sometime and have plenty of reasons for the same. But what's gone is gone and there is no looking back. All I have learnt from my mistakes and experiences is everyday is a new day and everyday you can make new mistakes and learn from the same. 

Before I deviate and go on to some other track let's get back here. I have been crafting tit- bit but haven't shared anything with you all. All that I have realized is crafting puts me in peace and most importantly peace with myself. So you don't have to search for happiness anywhere it's right in front of your eyes and for me its the fresh smell of brand new paper stack, inks , stamps ,dies etc etc etc ...

wow I sound a crazy person but I am sure most of us are like that.

I have few images to share with you all.

First one is A drawer Easel Card 

measures 5x5 inch in size.

And second one is Mini Album

measures 6x6 inch in size and can holds up to 30-35 pictures have loads of space to journal .

These are the two projects that I made recently , Hope you all like it and if yes please do leave me some love I hope you will all motivate me .

Wow it feels good to be back .

stay tuned for more.

STAY TUNED FOR MY NEXT POST 

I am sure you will not want to miss this one.

Happy Crafting 

Love & Hugs 

Isha
