With Ramadan only 23/24 days, I decided to make some fun vibrant, Ramadan Kareem cards for loved ones. I captured the entire process on video, to share with everyone, so that you too feel inspired to make some of your own.
In this video tutorial I have used stamps from Altenew, Kaisercraft and Prima Marketing Inc. Instead of using distress inks, I opted to use pigment inks, by Color Box, and black Archival Ink.
Today I am blogging about the wooden alphabets that I recently altered, for my little nephew. I have captured the process on video, and you can watch it below.
As you can see in the above picture, its actually a pretty long panel, and so I used half of it for this card. I created the base layer by stamping the edges to create the border, and the then stamped the sentiment on Kraft card.
Added some glossy accents to add dimension to the design.
"To My Soulmate" is a customized album, made in shades on grey and blue. Since this scrapbook was a to be gifted to a gentleman, I avoided using any flowers and ribbons. Used lots of diecuts on the cover, and heat embossed some details.
The scrapbook contains over 20 mats, and lots of space for journal-ling.
Kept the box grey, with lots of texture and fun elements.
Added frames, cogs and gears, hidden tags, pockets, and booklets all through the album.
And, thats all folks!
Have a great day,
Happy Crafting
Artful Crafting recently introduced the extremely vibrant, and versatile Color Wash Collection, and I am super excited to share it with you.
The collection includes an A4 paper pack, of 20 sheets with 8 different designs. A pack of Pillow boxes, cards and tags.
The best thing about this collection is that, it caters to everyone; If you are a novice, looking to gift some trinkets, then you can simply order a pack of the pillow boxes, and you are good to go.
The gorgeous precut cards, save tons of time, and you can just start decorating them if you like, or just add your greetings and send it to your loved ones.

The Daily Marker 30 Day coloring challenge, hosted by Kathy, is all about taking your coloring skills one step further. It is open to all those who enjoy coloring, and sharing, their passion with others. You can read all about the challenge on The Daily Marker site. I too am participating in it this year, and that is why I have been posting coloring projects on my instagram account daily.
Why am I taking part? It was during the 2015 challenge that Erum Tasneem's beautiful coloring posts inspired me to start coloring once again. I started coloring random images, and then as I got busy with other projects, coloring got sidelined. So, this year I decided that I would take this on seriously and stick through it, making sure that I color every single day of the month. I love to color, and I saw this as a great opportunity to polish my coloring skills. There are thousands of people, across the globe participating, tons of inspiration and lots to learn; I couldn't just let this go this time.
The past 15 days have been extremely rewarding and I can actually see a massive improvement in my work (even if I say so myself :P ). Sharing a slideshow of the 15 images that I colored, using water color pencils. These are shared on my instagram account too.
You can join in too, if you like; just color, capture and share on facebook or instagram using #thedailymarker30day hashtag. Visit The Daily Marker for more details.
To stay posted on what I am working on, join me on Instagram.
