Yeah..I've literally gone dotty!!! The prospect of searching for a house and being thoroughly disappointed with the prices (way too high) and the spaces I saw got me really low!!! To stop myself from going crazy with worrying (those who know me well, I will worry for things that haven't happened...I'm the Don't worry chachu's female version...hmmm maybe they stole the idea from me)ummm...back to the topic..to stop me from worrying, I sat down to do what I love the most....stamping...and took out my newest set...PTI Dots and spots (thanks Shobhana...you'll see how much fun I had with it)
I ended up making 7 cards in one go....not one hour...it took me 4-5 hours..interspersed with some house work, cooking etc....
Without more ramblings...coz I'm all for rambling these days!! here are the cards...all are one layer cards...
The original design of this card was from Lea's card... and then as usual I had to add butterflies!! Stamps are PTI Butterfly dreams, Signature greetings and Dots and spots. Ink is Memento tuxedo black and Rose bud. Center butterfly is die cut with the PTI butterfly die and the other two small butterflies are hand cut.
Ink used here is Memento tuxedo black, lulu lavender and grape jelly.
For this card..I basically went wild...just stamping like a kid would...random...with no sense of any design or direction...still pleased with this card!!
The bigger medallion in the set...still need to get it to stamp properly!!
And all of the butterflies are adequately coated with glitter.....either with glitter glue, or pie lane pixie dust or Sakura diamond dust pen.....need proof.....
That is pie lane pixie dust glitter...Ain't glitter an awesome thing?
Since I felt so relaxed and at peace...I plan to make loads more....coz worrying will never cease...but to channel that energy into something pretty...that makes me happy!!!
See you around with the next dose of cards!!!
Since stamping, butterflies and bling are my most favorite things....I feel its only right that I link it to Patricia's My favorite things at Colors Dekor.

ReplyDeletei like all the cards but my two very favs are: the one in which you went wild stamping, I love it. and the second set.. the one after the wild one, pink and black.. AWESOME.
So.....are you seeing dots when you close your eyes? Beautiful set of cards. Couldnt decide which ones I like best.....they are all gorgeous. That big one is sometimes a little tricky to stamp. I figured that if I stand and put all my weight on the inked up stamp then it works well.
ReplyDeletewow Tejal... no words to explain.... but these are reallly beautiful... love the style..
ReplyDeleteEach and every card is FAB..... Loved the simple style and the permutations you have used ........ and loved the butterflies too :)
