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

CAS Cards

Good Morning Everyone !

How are you all doing ? Today I am here to share with you all my inspirational CAS Cards which I have designed for Die cuts and More. 

I absolutely love and enjoy making cards ( detailed and shaped cards ). Once I got to know that we are doing CAS Cards for this month theme I really had a hard time in making these . I always use to think how simple it is to make CAS Cards .Believe me guys I really had hard time in making these NOT SO SIMPLE CAS CARDS . 

Well what to make , from where to start , how to make , which all stamp can be used to make .. blah blah I was bombarded with so many questions which left me so confused and irritated. After so much hours of thinking and searching.. I managed to find my source of Inspiration which was none other then Neha Bhatt. I really loved her Guest post for Color conception , seriously guys you will enjoy this post for sure and will understand the way to make and design your very own CAS Cards.

Finally here is my interpretation , my CAS Cards ! Have a look

Seriously CAS cards are super fun to make and I had great time exploring my skills and for this I really thank DCAM for giving me this opportunity for stepping out of my comfort zone. I know still there are many flaws and loopholes So what I am still learning :)

Lets hop in for details now ...

For this is card I have simply used a die cut from Kaisercraft . Love these die cuts, and added some sequins.

 

For this card I have used my gorgeous Clearly besotted stamp set and colored it with distress markers . Firstly I have stamped the polka dot stamp with versamark ink and used gold embossing powder and heat set it . Sentiment is from justrite .

And lastly for this card I have used my Martha Stweart butterfly and Kaisercraft stamp set . I have colored the stamped images with distress markers.

Well that was all I hope you have liked my cards . Would love to hear from you .

Love 

Isha 

Have a nice day
