Imagine Crafts/ Tsukineko and RubberMoon stamps cross promo

  IMAGINE Crafts and RubberMoon Art Stamps are excited to share with you the amazing projects that our design teams have created to kick off the Holiday Season! Over the next few days, we'll be sharing with you inspiration and techniques using IMAGINE Crafts' line of ink products featuring rubber stamps from RubberMoon. Be sure to visit the IMAGINE Crafts and RubberMoon blogs daily for more projects and ideas!

I have 2 projects for you today. Here is a card I created. You can check the supply list and directions HERE. I really love the Rubbermoon stamps. I love the cute images and some awesome background.

For my 2nd. projects, I created this clock they have. It was so much fun creating it and now my younger daughter cleaned her table, so she can put it there...I am happy about the cleaning part a lot...lol

Direction:

Apply Luxe ink in wedding dress directly onto the base and circle.

Apply irRESISTible Pico embellisher in black onto the number panel. This gives a nice dimension.

Apply some Radiant Neon inks through the MFT stencil using finger dauber, let dry.

Keep the stencil back and then stamp the background using Versafine Onyx Black ink. Sponge some ink to the edges.

Supplies: 

Merry Christmas

Hello crafty friends!! This is my 2nd. post for the day. For my Lawnscaping Challenge Facebook Inspiration November Hop click HERE.

So, here is a card, I want to share. I love Winnie and Walter stamps and recently got these new stamps. I want to play along Play Date No. 4 challenge. Here is the inspiration photo.

I got inspired by the pine cones, pine branches, silver, brown, blue and a touch of red. As soon as I saw this stamp set, I wanted to create a stamped watercolor card. I used my Memento markers to stamp and then went over them using a wet brush. I also did some 2nd. generation stamping for added depth. I embossed the birds and the sentiment using WOW! Embossing Powder tinsel glitter embossing powder.

Playing along the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes!

Supplies: Stamp: Winnie & Walter (Winter Woodland); Inks: VersaMark, Memento Markers, Memento Bahama Blue ink; WOW! Embossing Powder Silver Bells Embossing Glitter; Die: Lil' Inker Design (Stitched Rectangle)

25 Days of Christmas Tags

Hello crafty friends!!

The sweet Tracey McNeely invited me to play along with her 25 Days of Christmas Tags feature that she has had on her blog the last several years!  Tracey is an incredibly talented designer, and she has gathered together some amazing ladies and  teams to participate for this feature. Thank you so much Tracey, I am so honored. It's such a fun concept! Now she’s got some AWESOME prizes too.  

I was so excited to play along and had lots of ideas but unfortunately got flu in the house. Anyhow I did create a tag... LOL

I die-cut the tag and stamped the light bulbs. I then embossed the stars and the sentiment using WOW! Silver sparkle embossing powder. Then I sponged some ink. Colored in all the images including the holly leaves and berries. Easy but I really love it :)

Tracey has created a Flickr Group for you to play along with her – you can find it HERE.  And you’ll find some amazing inspiration as well as other details about the prizes she is giving away on her blog!  Leave a comment here and I will pick one lucky commenter to be entered to win the drawing for prizes on the 28th.  Please leave a comment by the end of the day.

Chalkboard Thanks Cards

I am was up at Imagine Crafts/ Tsukineko blog on Saturday but couldn't post my card here as we all got flu and I felt so tired with running nose, fever and cough. Hubby and my younger one are still home. I am feeling a bit better today.

I have a Thank You card for you, we all need these especially at this time of the year. As you all know the chalkboard effect is very trendy these days, so I decided to combine the chalkboard effect with a multi-inking technique. Check out the supply and instruction on the Imagine Crafts blog HERE:

More later, I have so much work to catch up on :) Still feeling tired though...lol

Hello Everyone!! Today we have a new challenge at  Lawnscaping challenge blog and this time the theme is "Numbers" We all love numbers in many ways isn't it:)
Now, would you believe I managed to ruin my memory stick, which has tons of photos of my cards...lesson learnt...transfer the photos from memory disc to computer immediately.

I created the background using numbers. I sponged some Memento Luxe using the stencil. I created the bushes using the cloud stamp from "into the woods" stamp set. I inked it using multi-color inking technique:)

Stamp: Lawn Fawn (into the woods, chit chat); Ink: Imagine Crafts/ Tsukineko (Memento Luxe - morocco, dandelion, lilac poisies, pear tart, olive grove); Number stencil: Hero Arts

Have a very Fawny Holiday Week {Day4}

 Hello friends!! Today is the day 4 of  A Very Fawny Holiday Week 2014, where the Lawnscaping Challenges team is teaming up with the Lawn Fawn design team to bring you tons of holiday inspiration! 

Today, I have 2 cards for you. I really adore these cute stamps by Lawn Fawn and it's so much fun creating with these.

For my first card, I created a shaker element. I used lots of vellum for all my stamping:) I like how Imagine Crafts Brilliance inks look on vellum. Soft and little shimmer. 

For my 2nd. card, I did, what I always love....some watercoloring:) I used some of the memento dye inks to color. For the snow, I used pico embellisher in wedding dress and sprinkled some glitter on top. I used the branch for my owl from the Home Sweet Home stamp set and the berries from Joy to the Woods . It is so easy to mix and match all the stamps:)

 Make sure to tune in each day to have your socks knocked off! And did I mention, there're prizes?

Smile Gift Card Holder Card!

Hello Everyone!! Today, I am at Lawnscaping blog. I created this fall theme creation. For my gift card holder, I used a vellum bag, which I dry embossed. I die cut some of the leaf dies using vellum and glitter paper. I colored some of the leaves. Then I stamped and colored the images and created this cluster. The flap of the envelope is onto the back side, so you can easily open and close it.

Now the idea of using leaves is for a new challenge at StampNation. I really enjoy playing along their challenges. Do check it out if you want tons of inspiration, tutorials and lot more all in one place :)

Supplies: 

Stamp: Lawn Fawn (Into the Woods, Joy to the Woods, Chit-Chat), Dies (Joy to the Woods), Paper: Gold Glitter paper, Vellum; Ink: Imagine Crafts/ Tsukineko (Memento Tuxedo black, Lilac Posies Luxe ink) Glasine bag; Spectrum Noir Markers

Super Exciting News!!

Hello hello my friends!!! Eeeek!! I am so happy to share this exciting news. It's one of my Dream Come True :)

I got an email from Holly Anderson over at Paper Crafts& Scrapbooking magazine. I couldn't believe what she had written! Me, a World Card Making Day winner :) I was (and still am) super excited. At first, I wasn't sure it was real, but pinching myself and re-reading the mail numerous times did the trick ;) I also hugged my daughter but apparently I gave her a too big squeeze so she handed me a pillow to squeeze instead. Lesson learnt :)

It was a really hard job to keep this news to myself. Now I'm even more excited! You can read about it HERE.

Paper Crafting, especially Card Making, has really been an AMAZING journey of learning more each day, making friends all over the world and I treasure all the memories I made through this hobby.

I want to thank all of my friends and followers for the support, motivation and love!

As I can't share my chosen card (it's in the "Thank You" category), I'd like to share a card I sent for the "Christmas" category. 

Thank you Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking team for making my day!! HERE is a link to their post and a photo of my winner buddies for the category Jill and Virginia!

Have a nice day!

Hugs, Isha
