Chalkboard Technique!

Hello Crafters!

I have a good news to share with you all. I got MS-ENT in my home town through PG entrance exams...Extremely happy and excited for the new things that are waiting for me ahead. So now on wards I won't be able to be able to blog that much. Will surely miss creating cards.

But before that I do have one card to share with you all. On this card I have tried chalkboard technique for the very first time. The first card that I had ever seen using this technique was made by my dear friend Pooja. And I always wanted to try it out. So made this card this card taking into consideration the ongoing Mudra Challenge.

Chalkboard Technique

Chalkboard Technique

To make this one:

• Took a black sheet and cut out a semi-circle. Created the chalkboard look using embossing buddy.
• Stamped Mudra's Elegant Damask Stamp using white versafine pigment ink to create a BG. Placed the sheet on the white card base. 
• Stamped Mudra's Zinnia Stamp using versamark black pigment ink and colored it using Faber-Castell Pencils. Added dots using silver pen to add more interest.
• Added the fuzzy cut and embossed flower to the card using foam tape along with hand-cut few leaves.
• Stamped the sentiment from Craftyscrappers Purrfect Pair and added sequins and golden washi tape to complete it.

Smooshing Technique Card!

Good Afternoon Ladies!! 

I am back again to share a new card with you all that I made taking into account a few challenges.

To make this card I started with a white cardstock and stamped a circular lacy design (closest thing that I had to doodle) multiple times with white Versafine Ink. Heat embossed it with Wow clear embossing powder.

For smooshing I chose Tenacious Teal and Lilac Artistry Inks. I pressed the ink pads on an acrylic block randomly. Then sprayed some water over it from a distance till tiny droplets are formed on the block.

Then I smooshed the ink over the embossed cardstock till I was satisfied with the intensity of colors.

Wiped the excess of ink from the embossed areas using tissue wipe.

Took a butterfly die-cut, covered it with black pigment ink and heat embossed it. Marked the outline of the die cut on a vellum and cut it out. Coated the cut out with rust Metallic Paint and stuck it to the die-cut. It turned out to be really glossy.

Next stamped the sentiment from “Purrfect Pair” Stamp set from craftyscrappers on vellum. Added the cardstock to an embossed white cardstock along with a black one of same size. Finally added the whole panel to a blue card stock.

The butterfly die-cut is a RAK from Preety Dutt and the embossed panel is a RAK from Dr. Sonia Suprabha.

Here is the final card:
