Elven Beauty... Inspiration Destination Challenge No. 100

Heyloo everyone. Sorry for a late post, but I've been really REALLY busy :(. So getting on with this week's Inspiration Destination Challenge #100, I've had so much fun colouring this amazing page provided by our sponsor Fabrika Fantasy. This colouring page is called Elven Beauty and can be found here.

I've always enjoyed colouring since my childhood and I was so happy when I get to colour pages again! I've coloured this gorgeous page with my Spectrum Aqua and it's no secret now that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Spectrum markers. They are versatile and you can take your own time to play around with them.

Thanks for stopping by and I would love to know what you think.

Tooth Fairy: make a wish... Inspiration Destination Challenge No. 99



My DT post for this week at Inspiration Destination is very special. Our sponsor this week is Cute As A Button and I've used their pretty Tooth Fairy stamp which can be found here

I've made this kewt folder for my niece's 11th birthday and I hope she likes it. She loves fantasy and fairies; and this stamp seemed perfect for her.

I've used a lot of different colouring products for the stamp (colour pencils, distress inks and Lindy's Stamp Gang magicals); and LOTS of different coloured glitter.

Love how LSG magicals glitter when the light hits them. 




For the inside, I've customised her name on the pocket, with a few tags. On the right, there are 5 pockets with tags (accordion style) and lots of journalling space on the flip side. At the bottom, there's a vellum pocket with a kewt miniature handmade vellum diary.


Thanks for dropping by and I would love to know what you think.

It's 'Planner' Time...!

Heyloo. I'm so excited to share this week's DT project for Inspiration Destination Challenge #98. I've never worked with cutting files, so I was quite enthusiastic this time; with our sponsor being The Cutting Cafe

My project for this week is the 2016 Planner which you can find here. Oh they've got fab projects and cutting files! Absolutely in love with their planners! And I'm happy the way mine turned out.

(Pics best viewed in full screen.)


There are many different tabs and planner pages (which come with the planner pack) like contacts, calendar, months, dates and space for making notes, to-do lists, blank pages, notes, shopping lists, weekly menu/dinner and so much more. 


I've added a kewt pen holder to keep a pen handy at all times. On the inside, I've added a vellum pocket to provide a translucent cover for storing various loose things in it, for easier visibility.



Thank you for stopping by and I would love to hear what you think about my project.

Spring Bouquet... Inspiration Destination #97


Heyloo! I'm back with a new and exciting DT project for Inspiration Destination Challenge #97

This week, I've worked on Vellum! I love Vellum! Ever since my jewellery designing days when we had to design on it! I always loved the translucency and the classy feel it possessed. I used to print all colourful designs and stuff on it for fun (always intuitively wanting to do something more with it but back then, I did not know anything about crafting).

So imagine my delight when I finally knew how I could put my vellum sheets to not just good, but fantastic use!

So without further ado, I'll get on with my yummy project for this week, I love flowers and I love colours. My stamp for this week is Spring Bouquet by Just Inklined. And instead of using such a beautiful stamp on a card, I wanted to lend it a bit more personality. I present to you my floral home decor which can be put up as a wall hanging or a table decor.

(Pics best viewed in full screen.)

It was so much fun colouring on vellum with my Spectrum Aqua markers (I just love these! colouring with them is just so much fun), albeit I should tell you that colouring on vellum with water colours requires a lot of efforts than colouring on a cardstock. But it was totally worth it! Especially with the raised and a little wrinkly effect that it lent to my project. To contrast that, I've added a circular layer of crackle glaze between the two pearl lines and coloured it brown.




Hope you liked my project and I would love it if you could leave some feedback and let me know how I've done.

Our sponsor for this week's challenge on Inspiration Destination is Just Inklined. Hop on over to the challenge blog to check out what fabulous projects the DT has churned out this week.

All Dressed Up for Christmas - Inspiration Destination #96

Hello everyone. My DT post this week at the fabulous Inspiration Destination Challenge Blog is now live. Hop on over to check out what other DT members have created this week.

Our sponsor for this week is All Dressed Up.



The stamp I'm using is: All Dressed Up for Christmas which you can find here.



I've coloured the image with my Spectrum Aqua markers (I just love 'em!) and fussy cut it. And since it's a Christmas stamp, I've added loads of glitter to the fairy wings, the gift ribbons and blobs of colourful glitter to the Christmas tree and stars. I've layered the image with Christmas-y stuff (pattern papers and message).

Hope you guys like it and I would love to hear what you think.

After Party madness - Inspiration Destination #95

My 2nd DT project this week on Inspiration Destination is for Kenny K stamps.


I've created a mixed media, shaker tag using the digi stamp 'After Party' which can be found here.

Since it's a fun stamp, I wanted to try something different. First of all, I coloured the digi stamp using my Spectrum Aqua markers (I just love these!). I then created a tag, stuck a contrasting colour pattern paper and started assembling the shaker elements. I covered the corners with crackle paste and highlighted everything with gold, green, blue and pink colours. I added some glitter here and there to tie up the whole tag. I simply love how the cracks show (some very fine and some deep and big ones).



If you liked my tag, please leave some feedback and encourage me to do better :). More such yumm posts coming up soon.

Summer Love... Kidz Daisy - Inspiration Destination #95


Hello everyone. First of all, a good news. I'm so happy to share with you that I am one of the DT members at a fabulous blog called Inspiration Destination Challenge Blog. It's a wonderful blog with a very talented DT group. I'm so honoured to be a part of this amazing 'Dream Team'.

This is my very first DT project and blog post for Challenge No. 95: Always Anything Goes. Our wonderful sponsor for this week is:



The image that I worked with for this challenge is: Bug Kidz Daisy, which you can find here.

The moment I saw this image, I knew I wanted to make a colourful, vibrant and fun card. The image is so chirpy and innocent that I knew it had to be filled with colours. This is also the first time I have used my Spectrum Noir Aqua markers (colours from Primary and Nature sets used) and I completely loved how the colouring turned out. I've distressed the edges of the base green panel on which my digi image is stuck to give it a nice raw effect to break the monotony of 'kewtness'. I've carried the same effect for my prime sentiment (Something Special for you) to balance the look.

I've colour co-ordinated the background with the stamp colours and added fun elements and sentiments to spruce up the card and lend a cohesiveness. I'm completely in love with these colours.

I hope you liked my card and would love it if you could leave your feedback below.
