Happy Card

           Hi friends first of all Thank you so much for all the love showered on my Mixed Media Mini Book.....crafty friends are the best!! You girls have definitely boosted my morale  to continue my experiments with mixed media!
          Sharing yet another project which is out of my comfort zone....a CAS design ! I made this "Happy" Card  for my Guest Designer Post for ICR  CAS Challenge !

Ombre Creation

         This is my first try at an ombre technique. I used different shades of blue ink on white cardstock and die cut the "happy" from it. This style of card seemed a perfect chance to showcase some of my new stamps from Winnie and Walter. I heat embossed 3 golden stars and colored them in different shades of blue.

Ombre theme

          Layered my golden stars on an ombre inked card panel . To make the ombre look more lively I added little dots using a white gel pen. Used a star embossed white card stock with a few star sequins [a gift from Winnie and Walter]to bring all the elements together.

          I hope it has turned out okay. My  in-house critique [ my 9 yr old crafty daughter] on seeing this card exclaimed  " Who made this Amma?" [ amma is malayalam for mom ] and when I asked her how it was she just said "its not your style at all"! I guess that meant I better stick to layered flowery cards and projects in future !!
