HEY… Happy Birthday

Hello everyone!

Welcome back to my blog. Hope you guys are doing well!

So today I’m here to share a card that I’ve recently created for a friend’s birthday, using her favorite colors and coincidentally the color palette perfectly matched with the August moodboard of Altenew Inspiration Challenge!

I’ve use kraft cardstock as the base, used striped floral stamp set from Altenew and heat embossed it with Fabrika Decoru mirror gold embossing powder. Then I colored the image with red alcohol markers, distressed the edges with vintage photo distress oxide, added the sentiment ‘hey’ using Altenew Fine Alphabet die set. Finally finished off the project with some touches of glossy accent and red sequins.

The Power Of Practice Hop

Hello Craftivators!

Hope you guys are doing well. Today’s blog post is a special one because this is a part of the blog hop organized by Craft Collabs, where us participants display two of our cards, one from the past and one created recently to show you guys the difference and appreciate the power of practice throughout the years.

I’ve been making cards since I was a kid but it’s only been a few years that I’ve started taking it seriously and practiced a whole lot more. 

So today I’m sharing with you a card that I’ve created back in 2018 (the first card I’ve ever posted online) and another one that I’ve created last week.

Paper Crafters Unite Against Racism Hop - Floral Card

Hello Craftivators,
Hope you all are doing well. Today I’m back again to inspire you guys with a fun project, which I created for a special cause. It’s a fun floral card. This project is a part of the Paper Crafters Unite Against Racism Hop organized by Justine Hovey.
I used the sentiment ‘Be Who You Are’ to encourage people to accept the natural aspects of life, be courageous enough accept our own selves and never be afraid to be how we are! 
I myself am a person of color and I’m proud of it!

The goal of this hop is to come together to stand behind our crafty sisters and brothers of colour not just in the art industry, but also to show our support in the never-ending fight for equality all over the world.
