Jane's Doodle April Blog Hop

 

Hello Friends,

Jane's Doodles is releasing Some goodies including stand alone die!...Yaay! I am excited to be the part of blog hop for the following items :

Oh Baby!

Stripe Stencil

Grass Die

Unfortunately, I haven't received the grass die yet so I am using stamp and stencil for today's post.

As, we all know that Jane's stamps are super cute. Oh Baby set is no exception. Various images are fun to color and can work with many different supplies. I love geometric designs so stripe stencil is my favorite from the release. 

Here is my first card.

I have used embossing paste with stripe stencil for making partial background. I stamped images on colored card stock and embossed them in white. Bunting banners and few embellishments gives the final touch to the design.

Second card is for boy so I have used various blue inks to create plaids with the same stripe stencil.

Such a versatile stencil, isn't it? 

There is 35% off on everything through the weekend! No code required. 

One lucky winner from all the blogs will be eligible to receive a stamp set.

Here is the blog order

Jane's Doodles Blog Hop

 Hello friends,

I am so excited to share this post, today! We are celebrating the release of 3 new stamp sets by Jane's Doodles - Hope, Road trip and Old id Gold. Post covid, getting my stamps is a huge problem. It is taking more than a month to receive them. So many a times I have to use digital version which is not that fun. But today, I tried foiling with the printed images. After a long time, I made quite a few cards in one stretch.

 

Let's start with the Old is Gold. This is such a fun stamp and love those sentiments. Here is my card.

The card is totally inspired by a quote I saw online. "Big or small, bold or italics ...you are my type."  I used various alphabet dies to form the words. Typewriter is printed and gold foiled using laminator. 

Isn't it gorgeous? The set is so well designed!

Next few cards use Hope stamp set. I love the cluster of flowers in it. It is well sized to color. 

Once again, I went with the foiling. I printed it on some colored card stocks and foiled it. I kept it simple to let the foiling shine.

That cluster of flowers is so pretty that I couldn't resist myself and made 3 more cards...:)

I tried Yana Smakula's coloring technique for that red rose. 

That is all for today. I so wanted to use Roadtrip set but I will wait for the physical stamp to arrive. I hope you like the cards I made and feel inspired.

Blog hop - Jane's doodles

Hello friends,

 How are you all doing? We all are going through some really tough time. We have total lock-down for 3 weeks. We are half way there. While I try to create and keep myself occupied, that feeling of uncertainty is always there at the back of mind. I simply can't concentrate in this new norm. Let's hope we get back to our routine pretty soon.  

Let's try to cheer ourselves up. We @jane's doodles have a blog hop for you. There are 2 new stamp sets Tulips & Spring Icons, released recently. I love the idea of Tulips set. The flowers, stem and leaves are separate stamps which gives you flexibility to make your own bouquet bu masking and stamping. 

  

     

I have used Tulip set for today's card. I stamped multiple of each images on water color card stock with light ink as I was going for no line water coloring. I used Mission Gold water colors and faber castell pencils for adding details. It took me a while to build those layers but the result is worth the efforts. I fussy cut all the images and arranged them on a ink blended panel.  

Sentiment is from Doodle Butterflies. I finished it off by adding few clear dew drops. 

I hope my card could cheer you up! 

Please check out all the blogs and leave comment on each one for you chance to win a stamp set of your choice. The winner will be announced on Friday! All the stamps are 30% off till Friday.

Jane's Doodles Blog Hop -2020

Hello friends,

It's been long since we connected here. In 2020, I am going to try to do more blogposts. Insta anf fb are so quick, I am slowly loosing interest in writing blogs. But i think, I have to work on that.

Today, we have a blog hop for newly released stamps. WILD & WILDFLOWERS. I have 2 cards to share with you.

For the first card, I have used wild set.

This set has the cutest animals ever. Sentiments are versatile so can make various occasions' cards. For this one I have used various dies as a background for the copic colored image. 

For the second card, I have used Wild Flowers stamp set.

I stamped the bouquet of flowers on a white panel using misti. I used grey and black ink for stamping to add little interest. Cut a small rectangle for the panel & colored the flowers with copics. I mounted the frame on a pink card stock. The center panel is mounted with foam tape at an angle. Sentiment is from All Occasions set. 

I hope you like my unusual take  on both the cards. 

Please check out all the blogs and leave comment on each one for you chance to win a stamp set of your choice. The winner will be announced on Monday! Thorough the weekend all the stamps are 30% off.

Blog Hop - Jane's Doodles

Hello friends,

It is time for Christmas release blog hop @ Jane's Doodles. There are 4 new stamp sets for you all to play with.




Lets start with the first card

I have used Winter Village  set for this card. This is the most beautiful winter set I have seen in a while. The houses are adorable and good sized to create a scene. I have used various distress oxides to create shy and copics to color the images. Splatters of chalk paint was added for the snow.

This winter Icon set is so much fun! I have used water color paper circles to stamp and color images . I love the mix of blues and greens. That embossing folder adds nice texture to a simple card. This design is a great example on how to use small stamps and create a larger focal point.

Next set is Snow Glob. It is to create scene within the glob but I thought everyone is going to use it that way so I decided to make few cute tags using it.

THere is a new addition to our design team , Linda van Wely-Zwolle . She is from Netherlands and you can find her amazing work @ Stamping with Liz Desig . She is an amzing crafter and i love her coloring skills. Linda, warm welcome to the team!

January- Thyroid Awareness Month

Hello friends,

 

Today, I am posting this card as part of of a blog hop which is organized by my awesome friend , Milka to spread awareness of the need for preventive screening and early detection of thyroid disease to avoid unpleasant illnesses and dangerous complications.

Along with me there are total 26 designers from all over the world taking part in this hop. I feel honored to be part of this hop. Milka, I am thankful to you to invite me for this initiative.

The aim of the hop is to support Thyroid Awareness Month and to raise public awareness of the importance of a Thyroid Gland and problems it can cause when not working properly.Thyroid disorders pose a significant threat when prolonged or in the acute presentation, and are potentially serious disorders with symptoms that range from non-specific constitutional to subtle or frank neuropsychiatric symptoms. 

Being a Hypothyroid ( when the thyroid gland activity is abnormally low) patient for last 10 years myself, this hop is close to my heart. I am dealing with weight gain, edema, thinning hairline, dry skin, poor memory etc. I have to take my medication for the rest of my life and still have to deal with all those symptoms. I have to be very careful with my diet and constantly struggle to loose weight (Which is not happening - no matter how hard I try, I gain it back so fast - so easily) . I have to  keep adjusting the dose of the medication too. I’ve learned my body well enough to know when I’m feeling like I need to adjust medication dosage . Medicine is necessary to balance the hormone but you need yoga, meditation and exercise to keep your stress level under control. Between medication and lifestyle change I've learnt to live my life happily! So you can imagine  how crafting is helping me to deal with these crappy disease. 

So coming to the crafting part, I made this card around the sentiment. We were suppose to use the blue color, paisley and butterfly as the thyroid gland looks like butterfly. 

The butterfly is from Verve Stamps( sadly... they are no longer in business) , paisley from papertrey ink and sentiment is by MFT. 

Yes, life is tough but we are way stronger than we think! I feel Challenges are what make life interesting.

Blog Hop @ Jane's Doodles

Hello Friends,

Today, I am sharing 2 cards I made for blog hop @ Jane's Doodles. We are releasing three new sets which you are going to love. They are Happy Camper, Patterns and Out Doors. These are beautiful sets which you can use for Holiday cards too. Love their versatility!

First card is made using Happy Camper set.

First I cut the edge of the panel using a die. I used masks of the images and stamped them to create a scene. All the images are colored using copic markers and colored pencils. I also stamped a pattern on white card base to add some interest.


For the second card, I stamped moose  and raccoon , colored and fussy cut them.

 I cut two frames from burnt orange and white card stock. I colored internal pieces of white frames using distress oxides and stamped them with few patterns from Patterns set. I also stamped sentiment in black  and added fussy cut images.

Don't you think these are most adorable sets? I am totally in love with them.
