Three Cards for Winnie & Walter

Hello!
    How are you all? I had another cardmaking session over a week ago but just didn't feel like blogging as I was down with flu. I'm back to normal now and here are my cards for Winnie & Walter using In bloom-Lola's Bouquet and In bloom-Addie's Garden sets for the first time. Sentiments used are from CAS-ual Fridays- Pretty Posies and the colors are inspired by W & W's July color challenge. 

Card 1:
This card is for Rerun #32 featuring their Mini Scenery-Madison. As I do not own the same, I decided to use a stencil as an alternative. The project was mainly inspired by Gayatri Muralis use of blooms. 

The background was inked with Dreamweaver (now Stampendous) I-beams stencil. Ferns were stamped directly on the card and colored with Prismacolor Pencils. The blooms and leaves were stamped on cardstock, fussy cut and adhered. Some were layered with foam dots for dimension. The card was finished off with a sentiment in grey ink, bling and a touch of clear wink of Stella to to add shimmer to the rose petals.

Card 2:

The bands of color as in the inspiration picture were masked and inked. The daisy was stamped. The torn edge was to cover the tear created by the tape used in masking.  It was lightly inked with Brilliance-Platinum Planet to go with the greyish hue on the color inspiration picture. The card was finished off with a sentiment and sequins.

Card 3:
Ended up making this as I did not want to waste the card put aside due to an error while making the previous card wherein, I accidentally placed the tape at a wider distance and so had started afresh.

Three bands of color of varying widths were masked and inked. The vase and tulips and leaves were stamped an cardstock, coloured with Prismacolor Pencils and arranged into the vase by cutting an opening for the flower stems and leaves to go through. The entire arrangement was adhered with foam tape and finished off with a sentiment and Nuvo crystal drops.

Five Cards for MFT-Summer School-Session I

Hello!!
   Happy Sunday to you all. I'm happy to inform you that my mojo hasn't left me yet. In fact, I'm having bouts of OCD (Obsessive Cardmaking Disorder) that leads me to create multiple cards in a day. Had one such bout yesterday... I took the five MFT-Summer School lessons and graduated the same day. Ha! Ha!

    

    Here are my five cards using one stamp set from an unknown company. They are pictured with the stamps used so if you recognize them, do let me know. 

LESSON 1: White Space

This card is also made in Complementary Colors for Lesson:4
The stamped image was heat embossed with Ranger gold embossing powder, lightly coloured with Prismacolor pencils and finished off with an MFT-Together Forever sentiment.

LESSON 2: Primary Colors

  

The images from the set were stamped at random Tsukineko brilliance-pearlescent inks and finished off with an SRM sentiment adhered on black cardstock and sequins.

LESSON 3: Repetition

This card also qualifies for Symmetry in Lesson 5.
The images were stamped using the wreath builder as a guide on a stitched square die cut panel with Tsukineko brilliance-pearlescent inks, adhered on a black card base and finished off with another stitched square, stamped with an MFT-Thanks so very Much sentiment and adhered with foam tape.

LESSON 4: Complementary Colors

This card also has White Space as in Lesson:1 
The flowers of the stamped image were outlined with a gel pen, lightly colored with Prismacolor pencils and finished off with an SRM sentiment adhered on black cardstock and a few black paint splatters.

LESSON 5: Symmetry

This card also has White Space as in Lesson:1.  
After stamping MFT-Together Forever sentiment in the center, the one heart was stamped while mirror stamping technique was done for the other heart as the image is not symmetrical. Shimmer was added on the hearts with Wink of Stella and finished off by scoring lines along the vertical sides.
