Fanning Congratulations

Hi Girlies,

It's Friday again or I would say TGIF!! And that also means there is a new challenge posted on Paper Cutz Challenge blog. This time with the old DT inspirations, you get to see many fresh inspirations for the new DT members also. And I belong to later category...lolzz. So, this is my first post as a DT member. I was so excited and had fun making card for this challenge :).

This week we have an easy-paesy Recipe Challenge - 1-2-3. All you have to use is 1 Ribbon, 2 Buttons and 3 Colors. See, how easy is this? So, here is my card for this sweet simple recipe.

Here is the close up of this beautiful bird, fanning her feathers and saying "Congratulations".
This time, I created a slightly different card. So, sharing one more pic with you of the difference :)
This card is a hybrid of stamping, distressing, masking, shadowing, scalloping and accessorizing. I used masking grass bed, stamped flowers on it, double stamped the peacock image (for shadowing affect), distress the scalloped edges and accesorizing with ribbon, buttons and blings :).

Don't forget to hop onto PCC blog to admire the beautiful creations created by other DT members.

Blackleaf Studio + Blackleaf DT Card

Hello Crafty Folks,

What are you creating today? Must be the wonderful crafts as ever :). I have some great news to share with you and of'course the card will follow...

First the news -
I was chosen as a DT member for the Blackleaf Studio. There was much going-on there. The page design has been changed to this amazing one. There was new Designer Team on-board. The Store have some fabulous images for you to choose from. And the glittering news is from now own you can get a chance to win a free digi each day. How?? Its very simple. Each day, one of the design team member post her wonderful creation on the blog (except Saturday - it is a sketch challenge day). You just have to comment on the post and there you get a chance to enter in a drawing for a freebie.  Isn't it easy-peasy?? You can explore the blog from here or can grab the image for you blog too :)

Now on to my 1st DT card for the Blackleaft Studio:
Here is one closer look:

Aren't these adorable?? See, I promised you in my previous post that I will come up with something different for my next card and here I am with these cute Owliiees :). Oh, I loved playing with them. They are from the set called Owl Magic Stamps.

I cut them out and placed them one over the other just like best buddies (hand-in-hand)..lolz. The vertical set of papers are shaved and distressed with brownstone ink. The swing like branches were cut out from a border punch and arranged accordingly. The sentiment says "ur the best friend". I used some ribbon and some faux stitching around the card and sentiments.

I am playing in the following challenges with this card:
Get Sketchy - gs#49
Paper Sundaes - challenge#29 'stitching'
Stampin' Sisters in Christ - challenge#50 'use any kind of bird' [I used owls]
Stamp n Doodle - 'anything goes'

2 Sisters - challenge#3 'punches' [I punched out the swing like branches for owls]
