Fun Times Instagram Hop - Varada Sharma Designs

Hi Friends and Happy Wednesday!  Today, the team from Varada Sharma Designs is celebrating the Fun Times Release for October 2022 with an Instagram Hop.  There are (3) $10 Gift Vouchers up for Grabs.  You can find the 1st Hop Stop HERE starting at 10 AM CST (11 AM EST).

My project today features the Water Lilies Digital Image, which is part of the larger Fun Times Release.  I've chosen to create a Card of Encouragement however this lovely floral image is perfect for any occasion.  


Water Lilies belong to a family of approximately 60 species of freshwater flowering water plants. They thrive in the temperate and tropical parts of the world.  We have them growing in the Lake by our home and they are soft pink with yellow centers so I've colored mine the same. 


I've colored the florals with Prismacolor Pencils and blended using Gamsol.  The focal panel was cut using a fancy edged rectangle die from Alina Craft, the patterned paper is from the Secret Gardenia 4.5" x 7" pad by Recollections.  

I used my distressing tool from Tim Holtz to give the edges a tattered look and inked around the panel with Victorian Velvet Distress Ink.  The sentiment is from the Feathered Lilies Stamp Set from Altenew and the pink gems are from Kat Scrappiness.

Please join us and Hop along for your chance to win a gift voucher to the Varada Sharma Designs online Shop.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Bugaboo's 11th Annual Birthday Bash - Day 1

Hello and Happy Saturday!  Today starts a week of celebration for Bugaboo Stamps 11th Birthday.  It's a Birthday Bash with Daily Themed Challenges, Prizes, Freebies and New Releases.  To start things off, the theme for today is "Birthday" using a Woodland Critter.


For my design team project, I used the Garden Bunny digital image to create a cute Birthday Card.  I colored the image with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers, the designer papers are from the 4.5" x 7" "Secret Gardenia" paper pad by Recollections and I added Wink of Stella here and there for a bit of Sparkle.  

I cut the focal panel with a pair of Decorative Edge Scissors...a blast from the past those scissors are...does anyone still have those?  Do you use them?  It's funny what I find when I go to digging in my stash..I found them and had to use them.

Please join us from 09 January through 15 January for Bugaboo's 11th Annual Birthday Bash!  We're Partying this week and would love for you to come!

Until Next Time, Happy Crafting!
