Winnie and Walter's 3rd Birthday bash!

Hey Friends!
It's Winnie and Walter's birthday month and I am so excited. It has 10 different challenges and one can enter as many times as you wish in them. Isn't it cool? I am aiming to participate in all. Lets see if I can keep it up.

The first card is made keeping "Cute Critter Challenge with Gayatri" in mind. I had a very cute stamp set by Winnie and Walter - So Tweet. And I had to use it.



First, I stated with stamping and embossing the bold sentiments from the big, the bold and party stamp set. Next, I stamped the little birds from So Tweet stamp set. The best thing about this stamp set is the accessories. You can dress up the little birdies in so many ways. I wanted the accessories to stand out and hence left the birds without any color and this complimented the bold sentiment.
Here's the close up-

Happy Birthday with Fashy florals

Hello Friends,
Posting a quick card that I made few days back for the current MFT color challenge 62.
Here are the inspiration colors -


And here is my take on it.


Please excuse the bad image. I was in a super hurry and had to post this card before the challenge ended. I have used MFT fashy florals stamp set.  CAS is really difficult for me and I keep feeling that something is missing. Hoping to get better.

Love,
Piyu

Thank you card

Hey Friends!
Today's card is made specially for Muse challenge. The current week's Muse is as follows-

And here's my take on it -
I was so inspired by Valentyna's card that I almost CASE-d it. I was inspired by the colors, the layout and Thanks sentiment.

I used Wplus9 Summer blooms stamp set and Hero arts inks. The cardstock is from Ranganjali. It's super smooth and works so well with solid stamps.
This is the first time I stepped out of my comfort zone and made a totally CAS card with no watercolors and just solid stamping.
Hope you liked my CAS attempt.

Submitting this to MUSE challenge #201.

Love,
Piyu
