Guest Designer at CTB IN THE GARDEN Card and a Mother Day Card

Another saturday it means another challenge at Catch The Bug we have this week IN THE GARDEN THEME...you can join us and you will have a chance to win some lovely and cute Images from Bugaboo Store. Here is a card I made as Guest Designer, I choose this Image from Bugaboo: Make it Snappy - Floral Moms Day

I used my Old Designer Paper from my Old Collection and also the old stripe black paper puncher from my Blogland friend. I colored the Image with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor set, I choose brown, green and yellow, to match with the design paper I have. I adhere the main panel with the double tape foam.

The sticker flower is a birthday goodies from my lovely friend Petra Heller, many thanks Petra for your lovely goodies. I love to use it :). I also scored my yellow paper with my SU ScorPal. The DANKE Sticker is from my Stash.

For my second card I try to make bokeh effect with soft color...as I made last time my Bokeh card using a vibrant color, also I decided Vibrant color is better than the pastel color for bokeh effect what do you think?

Here is my past card from first of May:

Here is my new card, tell me your opinion please, which one is more better for bokeh effect? My Opinion is better using a vibrant color to make the Bokeh effect come out :)

 I made this for my mother hope she will like this :)

I choose the color pink, green and yellow from Ranger Distress Ink and put the color on the white paper and spritz it with much water. At the end I sponged green, yellow and pink distress ink on my self made stencil and the very last is the white unicorn ink.

Challenges for my second card are:

Winnie and Walter NSD with Pinkfresh Studio Challenges (sdh a. p.): this mood board, I inspired from the picture at the bottom right, it has a look like Bokeh Effect and it also has a pink strip on the lady dress, thats why I choose pink card base :)

A Happy Birthday Card with full flower background

I have seen at Shona's Blog a lovely challenge from  Winnie and Walter NSD with Pinkfresh Studio Challenges and I like to join this time :)

I look at this lovely mood board and love the picture at the bottom part with so many flowers in so many colors...

I took my old Stampin Up stamp and stamped on a white paper:

Started to colored with my Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor those flowers:

And I thought this Background not GOOD enough (look so empty) also I took my Bokeh Dots stamp and started to stamped the tiny dots with purple distress ink:

Now I feel more happy with the background I made (looks like a design paper right? it was easy to made :) and I can mimic the color on the mood board) :

I finished my card with Cut Out (HAPPY) I have got from Joyce as goodies for my birthday, dear Joyce many thanks for your lovely Goodies all are adorable die cuts...and I stamped BIRTHDAY using my Hero Arts Alphabet stamp and punched it one by one with SU Puncher.

 Here is the complete card:

 
Do you think that background to busy? I hope not :)

Earlier Chirstmas card with Stencil and A Bird Manly card + PART IV Goodies & Cards from my crafty friends all around the world

WARNING A LONG POST WITH MUCH PICTURE :)

I have seen a new challenge at Addicted to Stamp and More with Holiday theme, also I took my Holly Background Artplorations Stencil and started to sponged it with my white ink. After it was dry, I then sponged with green color.

Here is the result of my stenciled paper with that two inks:

For the fruit I colored with red embossing pen and I gave Red Embossing powder on it and embossed it, and I gave more green on that paper :)

I think of a fun sentiment with gingham paper (but my gingham paper is not enough, : (( sad), also what should I do??? I stamped the Hero Arts Sentiment, embossed it with red embossing powder and I try to wrap my circle with gingham washi tape see the photo bellow:

Here is the end result of my sentiment:

I adhere it with double tape foam on my card base:

I love how shiny the red embossing powder on my middle panel:
