make a card - happy birthday using MFT stamps

Hello there and greetings from Croatia!
My name is Andriana and welcome to my channel. Todays project was birthday card using Simon Says Stamp Wednesday blog challenge theme : red, white and/or blue. I really enjoy participating in these challenges because they compell me to use something from my stash.


I used several different things to make these cards and they turn out adorable.


First I used MFT stamp Bold Diag Stripes on my Neenah Solar White carbase using Ranger Archival inks Manganese blue and Vermillion. I turned stamp diagonally to make it a little bit interesting. Since I made two different cards which are slightly bit different, I will name these card red and blue. Red card is the one which has red diagonal stripes on the base cardstock, and blue card which has blue diagonal stripes on the base cardstock.


After clearing this, for red card I stamped Happy Birthday sentiment from Altenew Persian Motifs using Jet Black Ranger Archival, and for blue I also used this sentiment but on red cardstock (from my scraps papers) using Wow Opaque Bright White embossing powder. 


With red card, i played even more with this background for the girl with Distress Oxide Faded Jeans and Salty Ocean which I also ended splashing with water to give this background interest. Girls I stamped with Jet Black Ranger Archival ink on watercolor paper (also some leftovers) and they come from MFT Feline Better set. I used Prima Waterolors to paint them after heat drying them. Sometimes it takes a little bit for inks to dry and I was unpatiened.


After heat drying them again because watercolors also takes time to dry, I assembled my cards.
On both of these cards, I used Nuvo Crystal Drops - gloss white and additionally, I added on red card, Ranger enamel Accent Classic Cherry, and on the blue card Blue Ribbon.


And this is how I did those 2 cards. Have fun!

make a card - celebrate using Foodie Spellbinders dies


Hello ladies and gentlements!
My name is Andriana and welcome to my blog.
Today I was inspired with Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge blog where the theme was Food and/or Drink. I immediatly knew that sentiment for this card will be Tim Holtz Flash Card Celebrate and Spellbinders dies Foodie which have all these kitchen items related to eat and drink. And what a coincidence, today is my birthday and I want to celebrate.




First i made card base for this card using Neenah Desert storm 100lb and made a square base measuring 5 1/4x5 1/4. Then i used some old paperpads from Prima Marketing Stationery Desk collection and DCWV Neutrals cardstock collection.


I thore them down a little bit to get textures and applied some distress ink on them using TCW Mini Halftone Borders Stencil and Inka Gold Browngold on Clear Scrap Utensils stencil


 After assembling everything in order I liked, I used Tonic Nuvo Crystal Drops in Morning Dew on die cut pieces and Ebony Black to combine everything. I really like these Simon Says Challenges which have themes where you are compelled to use all different items which you have in your stash and not always buy new things which eventually you do not even use, right? That is it, now I am going to celebrate.

make a card - you are absolutely fabulous using Altenew stamp set

hello and greetings from Croatia!
My name is Andriana and welcome to my blog.
I hope you are all doing well and feeling absolutely fabolous. I have a new card to show you. I used Garden Treasure stamp set from Altenew which is absolutely fabulous. I can hardly wait to play more with them. So check out what i have made.


This card wasinspired with Altenew June 2018 Inspiration Challenge where the theme was this:


Just a few shots up close where you can see texture and raised flowers.



Let me explain how I made it. First, I choose this lavander cardstock as a base colour for my card. I also used this cardstock for my flowers as well :). Then I layer stamped flowers from Garden Treasure stamp set and  die cut them with coordinated dies. For my leaves I used layering inks from Altenew Green Meadows collection. 



As a background for flowers and leaves I used thick 300gsm watercolor paper from Winsor&Newton Cotman Water Color pad and Prima Marketing watercolors. I just smooshed greens, dried it and sprinkled greens and violets which complements colors of flowers and leaves. I distressed edges od this watercolor paper with Tim Holtz paper distresser. I used a sentiment stamp from Altenew Fabulous Floral stamp set and stamped it with Archival Jet Black. After gluing everything and raising flowers with fun foam, I have rounded everything with Nuvo crystal drops in ebony black.


That is it ladies and gentlements, this is how I made this card. Hope to hear from you soon. Bye, bye...

make a card - masculine card using Viva Decor stamp set

Hello there!
Its really been awhile since i post anything on my blog and now is time to change it. I cannot promise to do regular basis because it does not work for me. I have very challenging job which requires lot homework and travelling which disables me to spend time in my craft room. But enough about me,
lets talk about card. This card was made for Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge blog which theme was Transport it!


First i used Viva Decor stamp set Oldtimer on piece of white scrap paper and stamp it with Ranger Jet Black archival ink. After drying it with heat tool, i put distress oxide on my non stick surface, added a water and smooshing printed image on it. this way i got this distressed look. Now, you may noticed that this stamp set has a background so i have cutted the car using scissors because i wanted something different on background.


Next thing I did is to take Neenah desert storm cardstock, as my card base and started to assemble everything I wanted on this card. I used Tim Holtz Game Spinners, Ranger tags which i stamped with Tim Holtz Air Travel stamp set.


And at the end I used some Kaisercraft Collectables from Art of Life collection and Ideology film strip ribbon. To have some interest on the background I used Sharpie Bronze metallic pen to make different shaped circles which I then covered withNuvo crystal drops Morning Dew which dries clear so you can see trough this wonderful bronze colour.


And that is it! I am pretty much happy with the result because you always need some masculine cards, right?
