'Roses for love' - Valentine cards

  Hello everyone This is DT Priyadarshini here and today I will be sharing 2 cards for Valentine's day where I will be using roses to make the cards.  "A bit of fragrance always clings to the hand that gives your roses"  Tubby Craft has a range of stamps for Valentine's day or any occasion, so remember to check out the site.  Card 1 My first card is a bunch of roses from Love Roses stamp set.  I stamped the flowers, buds and leaves on white cardstock and coloured with pencils. I used orange and yellow for the roses and green with brown for the leaves I fuzzy cut all the coloured images and kept them aside.  I took a white cardstock and splattered some black ink and let it dry completely. I added vellum die cut leaves and started layering the roses one on top of the other. I added some pearls for embellishment and a sentiment to finish the card Card 2 This is a traditional Valentine card with pink roses and a sentiment.  For this card, I used Lay...

Texture backgrounds using dye inks

Hello there, This is DT Priyadarshini here and am excited to share my new set of cards with everyone. For today, I have 3 cards with different backgrounds where I used items lying around at home to have some texture and details. I used bubble wrap, microfibre cloth and lace with some texture and details and used them as a stamp to create the background. For the cards, I used three stamp sets and one sentiment to go for all cards. Stamps set I used here are  Precious treasure ,  Bloom  and  Butterfly love .  Tubby Craft  has awesome  dye inks  that react with water which makes them perfect for watercolouring, inking, stenciling, stamping and more. These inks serve a lot of purpose and this post is all about how to stretch them and use them on other materials apart from stamps.  Card using Bubble wrap The first that popped in my mind when I thought about adding texture is bubble wrap. They work perfectly for any underwater card or just bac...

Janmashtami special monochromatic cards I DT Anirudh

 Hathi ghoda paalki, Jai kanhaiya laal ki! Hello everyone and a very happy Janmashtami. Janmashtami is one of my fav festivals, and so, I thought of making a card to celebrate the occasion, but I came up with two ideas coz these monochromatic cards are super quick to make! Here are today's projects; CARD 1 For this card, I started by stamping the main image from the Krishna stamp set onto white cardstock using Lavender Violet tubby dye ink and then fussy cut it out. Then I stamped the greeting onto a white strip with the same ink and then cut it as a banner. For the base, I chose a purple card base and then added a few diagonal layers and a silver mirror cardstock swirl die cut for some interest. Now, I simply foam taped the image and the sentiments and our card is done! Have a closer look at the card; CARD 2 This card is also very easy to make,  Start by taking a white A2 card panel and stamp the phrase onto it with Lavender Violet tubby dye ink to create a background. Also s...

Janmashtami cards

Hello everyone This is DT Priyadarshini here today and we are celebrating Janmashtmi today and I decided to share a couple of cards I made for the occasion.  CARD 1 To start with, I stamped the image on watercolour paper using  Lead grey ink .  I coloured using  Chocolate brown ,  Emerald green ,  Tangy orange ,  Lilac purple  dye inks. I fuzzy cut the image and kept it aside. I took a top fold note card and added a black cardstock. I took another piece of white card and stenciled using peacock feathers stencil with  Aqua blue  dye ink.  Added the stenciled piece and a vellum sheet to the base and added the image and sentiment to finish the card.  CARD 2 For my next card, I used only the stencil and sentiment from the stamp set.  I used Lead grey dye ink to first stencil on white card stock. I separately stenciled one feather using Aqua blue ink and highlighted using colour pencils.  I fuzzy cut the feather and added ...

Side step card & tag - Dinosaur & friends

Hello there, This is DT Priyadarshini here and today I using stamps released by Tubby Craft are the cutest set of dinosaurs I have seen. The stamp set I have used today is  Dinosaur and Friends .  I have a super fun card and a very simple tag here. I tried to create a small scene here using stamps and die cuts. The best part about this stamp set is that we can create so many projects using these images from CAS cards to chabby chic to interactive cards. These images will be loved and adored by kids when they receive super fun birthday cards as there are amazing sentiments that go along with this stamp set.  SIDE STEP FOLD CARD To make a side step card, I took a 8.5" by 5.5" inch cardstock. I used a paper trimmer and along the 5.5" side, I placed the cardstock at 3" and the cutting blade at 1" and cut along until 6.5" Now it's time to do the scoring part.. Place the cardtsock on a score board, and on the shorter side (that's 2.5") score at 4.25...
