You Are A Pearl

  • Cut out a small rectangular window on a piece of white cardstock, 270 GSM.
  • I wanted to give it a "sea theme" hence opted for 2 shades of blue distress inks: Mermaid Lagoon and Broken China.
  • Blend them together by giving a darker shade at the bottom and lighter shade at the top.
                                                  




  • Sprint some small water droplets on the card and immediately lift it with a cloth/paper towel, to give it the bleached effect.
  • Stamp the sea shells with Tubby Craft Ink- Sapphire Blue at the base. 

  • For the base card, cover it with Cracked Pistashio Distress ink.
  • Position the Pearl stamp along with the sentiment and stamp it using Tubby Craft Ink- Jet Black.
  • Adding the window just gives your project some more dimension and 3D effect :D
  • Foam mount the pieces...and you have a beautiful sea themed card.
  • This will be a perfect card to gift your mother this Woman Day! :D

                                                      
   
                                       

 Products used: 
1. White coloured cardstock of 270 GSM
2. Distress inks: Mermaid lagoon, cracked pistachio, broken China.
3. Stamp set form Tubby craft.
4. Black archival ink.

Hope you liked this pearl card.

DIY Stencil

By
Hello crafty friends! Devika here and today I will share how to create your own stencil and make a card using it! You can also follow me on these social media accounts: https://www.facebook.com/houseofillusiondelhi/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNGR6yuGN1tm2HzpwuYQOIA https://www.instagram.com/thehouseofillusion/ THIS BLOGPOST IS WITH A GIVEAWAY!! RULES MENTIONED AT THE END OF THE POST Dreamy Sky  Take a white cardstock. Make a cloud stencil with the masking sheet. Just draw the cloud edges with a pencil on a masking sheet. Cut the sheet along the edges and you will get your own "Cloud stencil."  Now use Sapphire blue ink along the "clouds stencil" and cover the whole background with it. Use Lemon yellow ink through the Rays stencil by Kaisercraft. (If you do not have a Ray's stencil then just place the masking tape on the cardstock with a one finger gap between each ray and thus you can create the stencil also)
