MY NEW BABY!!!!

Hey!!!! I am back with another card I made for few cool challenges..... This time it was not quick as my prior card..... but Yes! I made this in two hours..... And I quite liked what I made...... As it was a baby card..... :-)

As I do not have the required paraphernalia, I lack behind at getting my elements ready..... It takes time for everything..... as they have to be made..... BY HAND.......

I am bad at stamping..... I just cannot do it...... But still I would try till I am comfortable..... I don't understand why, as far as coloring is concerned.... I am a failure!!!!! I just cannot do it right...... & I feel sad too..about this...... :-(

This time I tried something ..... new...according to me..... I felt kinda okay about it.... but I know experts around would feel Eww! about it..... What I tried was the 'DISTRESSED' thingy..... I do not know exactly what the technique is...... but literally to do justice to the WORD... I feel I have distressed the flowered layer panel...... completely...... the edges of it.... I distressed it with my ink pad.... I just rubbed it on vigorously over that cute flower I made..... I felt bad later, but thought would leave it at that...... ;-)

So this is what I made......

And I thank........

Crazy 4 Challenges for using Kraft as base.......

And this is how I made it......

I used Kraft CS ( my favorite color) for the base & the flower cut panel.......
I designed the flower on the CS & later dry embossed (may be that is the term, but for me, I literally rubbed the end of my pen cap on the CS placed on the plate I had) smaller petals on it.... after which I hand cut the flower......
I used a printed paper on the base on which I layered a light green CS punched with my border punch & the opposite side of the printed paper which is plain pink!!!!
As I mentioned above, I distressed the edges of the petals..with all possible colors... I could lay my hands on..... I only have a few... so...... ;-0
I did not have a light pink string.... So I kinda managed to distress the plain white string, I had..... by coloring it pink... again by rubbing the ink pad on it kinda vigorously...... ;-)
I had a piece of left over CS in light pink.... which I stamped with hobby ideas BABY stamp thrice.... out of which later I colored only one with my pink sketch pen...... I told u I am bad with colors ;-p.. U can see that clearly na! SO that colored words are my sentiments...... ( ;-) I did not have to write this time)... I kinda escaped....... :0
I stitched a small frock for my little girl.... ( don know where she is!!!) May God bless her wherever she is....... :-) with cotton fabric & a piece of white lace..... (all kinda messy again) on to which I adhered the small bow.......
I later cut a thermocol ball into halves & adhered them on each sides of that pink panel......

That is it for now.....

UNTIL NEXT, KEEP THE FAITH!!!!!
