Snowflakes Falling Card Set (bastel-traum challenge #84)

Hi everyone! :o)

Today a new challenge starts at bastel-traum and our theme for the challenge #84 is Sky. :o)


The challenge starts today, December 15th, 2019, at 9 AM, CET or MET (UTC +1) and ends on January 15th, 2020, at 8:55 AM, CET or MET (UTC +1). Find all the details about the challenge, rules and prizes in a challenge post (here).


And here is my take on the challenge: Snowflakes Falling Card Set. :o)




How I made my card set....

My first intention was to make just one card, but I liked it so much that I made three more. :o)

I ink blended Distress Inks directly on a white top folded card base. When I was satisfied with the color, I splattered the front card panel with a water, dabbed the surface with a paper towel and left the card to dry on air.

After drying, I die cut snowflakes in the white cardstock paper and glued them on the card.

Then I mixed a white tempera color with a bit of water, splattered the front panel and left it dry on air. :o)

I repeated the same on other cards. :o)






I love how my cards turned out!! :o)

Nativity Silhouette Card - Croatian Sentiment (Jane's Doodles DT Spotlight)


Happy Friday! :o)

My second post today. If you missed the first one just scroll down or follow a direct link here. :o)



Today is my turn to be on the spotlight over at Jane's Doodles 'Butterflies' stamp set and I made this Nativity Silhouette Card:o)


To make my card I used stamps from two Jane's Doodles stamp sets'Holly Night' and 'Sretan Božić' Croatian SentimentsSretan Božić means merry Christmas. :o)

My card is a CASE of my own card that I shared last month (here). I went with same design, color scheme, nativity scene, went with same techniques, I just used different sentiment. Blagoslovljen Božić means blessed Christmas. :o)



How I made my card....

I ink blended a background using Distress Inks and Mini Ink Blending Tools directly on a white top folded card base. When I was satisfied with the color, I splattered the ink blended part with water and left it dry on air.

Then I stamped the sentiment and Nativity silhouette scene with a Jet Black ink directly on the card base. As I didn't get great impression, I fixed some spots with a black fine liner and my card was finished. :o)


Card measurements: 95 mm x 133 m(3 3/4" x 5 1/4")
