Color Challenge From Our Creative Corner

I am a new crafter and don't have much experience, all I do now is visiting other blogs, get inspired and create. I am inspiring all of them especially those are the designer for the blogs that I love to read always.

Yesterday, I was reading others' blogs and found out other challenge blog which is Our Creative Corner . The color for this week are:


I think the combination of the color will be a challenge for me. So, I decided to challenge myself and create this card:


This card I completed it today and it just hard to put those together plus I have to use at least three punches, and one of them have to be border punch. Challenging!!! Finally, I like the way it turn out and I am pretty satisfied with the result. I would like to play along in a near future. Thanks for stopping by.

Simon Says Stamp and Show Some METAL

Hi everyone, this is Serina and I have some new card to show to everyone. I am so busy lately because all the card-making contests and fabulous challenge that I will be participating. It will be so fun and I can not wait to see what is everybody going to create. Ok..... This week, Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge is METAL. I like to put different kind of texture and dimension to my cards or projects. Metal is one of them. Here is the card that I created:


I am using Tim Holtz patterned paper, bigz dies (Gadget Gears). For the metal here is also from Tim Holtz Ideology (Sprocket Gears). I used them right in the middle to the die cuts. I hope you guys can see it. I tore the edges and distress them with Vintage Photo Distress ink. I also used the die cut itself to mask the paper and spray with my homemade mist which is also Vintage Photo.

I enjoy creating and have so much fun to learn more techniques from all of the talented crafters and get inspired. Thanks for stopping by.

I distress the edges just to give a shabby look to it. The stamp set that I am using is TPC Studio Vintage Birdcages. I love these stamps.


I stamped the birdcage onto Pink Paislee Butterfly Garden collection paper and glittered the edge with Gold Stickles from Ranger.


Here is another flower that I made. I added some tulle and lace behind the flower. The leaves I am using right here is from IAMROSES. I am inspired by them all. Thanks.
