Dry Embossing greeting cards

Hey friends...
I was trying a new technique today by using embossing folders, as seen in my earlier cards, I ink the embossed part to make it look different... today i wanted to try something new with this technique.. so here it goes :
I embossed few cardstocks using big shot and embossing folder (cardstock 1)... then i took a piece of cardstock (cardstock 2) of the same color used in the background and embossed with the same folder and placed it on top of already embossed cardstock (cardstock1 )... I inked the second one as the same as in cardstock 1... that totally worked.. it looked so amazing that i could not stop making more cards...
Check out all.. ;)



 All the 4 cards are almost similar... I have used spellbinders nestablities square dies and memory box butterly dies...for roses I have used small punch...
For inking... ofcourse Distress ink :)) (I love these awesome inks and their colors...)... the colors are worn lipstick and black soot... Other than that few rhinestones are used to add blink and stamps are used for sentiments..




I really enjoyed making these... Please leave a comment to let me know if you liked it or not... Many thanks.. :))
Guys plz follow me as well .. :))

Another monochromatic card

I am so in love with all the inspirations that people post for their, really enjoying my time now.. ;)
Adding one more cute card that I just loved while making... Below are the details :
This is my first two-fold greeting card... I know I made a big mistake here, but somehow it still worked out for me... ;)
 The stuff I have used here are dies,stamps,pearls,distress inks. I just love these four, I have started including all the four's in my projects.

This is how the card looks when it is opened, I have left space for the sentiments for now, will add the sentiments later on..
The flowers are first diecut using itsy bitsy rose die and then distress inked to give the perfect color..
 This is the stamped image (mouse) from itsy bitsy animal clear stamps, they r amazing... it is so fun to add animals in the cards as they look so cute and specially projects that are meant for kids..
And the Happy Birthday is hand written, I loved the way to juggle the alphabets a bit.. and the die used for this sentiment is one spellbinders nestabilities that I have used in my previous project also ( http://funzycraftygifts.blogspot.in/2014/05/monochromatic-explosion-box.html )  and another one is itsy bitsy square die smaller size. the foam tapes are used between the two dies and at the bottom to make it look like a little cake.. hehe
 The butterfly die is of memory box, I love the perfect shape that thsi die gives, want to use in many more projects, but don't want to make it that common.. :(
 At the lef and right most boundary, I used one of the itsybitsy stencil that bought long back, but I have started to use it now after getting distress inks.. ;)
And the flowery die is again from itsybitsy dies, that r just awesome for the look..
I just realized that I wrote real big blog giving each and every little detail.. hehe.. I guess I am enjoying your comments..
Hope u liked the card, this is a bit kiddish, but this is so cute that I love it... Please leave a comment to let me know about it...

Monochromatic Explosion box :


This is the demand that i got from the girl who wanted to gift her husband something special for their 5 yrs anniversary, she wanted more space to write her feelings, so I have left a lot of space for her to write, she also wanted to insert a gift of her own instead of a fake cake or anything... I had no time to make as she wanted this very urgently...

  This the top cover of the box... to make it monochromatic theme look, I took white cardstock as the base for the lid and red cardstock for the box... created the roses using itsy bitsy rose creation die.
 The die used for the frames is spellbinders die (squares)... I didn't have anything to cover this with leaves to included rhinestones and pearl to let it look beautiful..
 This is the open box... I added three sides so that she had plenty of space to write and plenty of space to paste pictures...
 First slide opens the message and the pictures of them pasted on the spellbinders die.
 This is the third side with second as closed... the closed one have space to write and also embossed.
 This is the second side... :)
