Hello Everyone
What a lovely Month we have had with our "This used to be a..." challenge #4. You guys sure know how to turn just about anything into gorgeous stuff! We enjoyed each and every entry! So watch out for the winner announcement shortly!
For this month we have a very exciting and fun filled challenge. We thought we should get back to our roots of paper crafting.
We have tried to spread across one technique in each row, column and diagonal and we are so eager to see what you come up with.
I am sharing a post here after a very very long time but I had lots of fun making this card. I started with my new found love of making handmade flowers. These have been die cut in my Ecraft, embossed, curled, spritz with Glimmer Mist and then with flat pearls for the centre.
This made me pick Coloumn 4 - Pattern Papers, Stickers/thickers, Dry or Heat Embossing and Flowers.
The latest My Minds Eye Indie chic Collection looked perfect for this card and i wanted to get back to embossing as well. So this column was just perfect!
Since the flowers are big and chunky I chose to make a side step card to showcase these beauties and give garden appearance :). Here are the detailed shots!
Hope You liked it.
To participate ensure you follow all our rules and help us comment by removing the word verification please.
The winner gets a goody bag and will also be invited to do a Guest DT post for our next Challenge! How cool is that?
Not to forget, we would have top 3 winners who get to show off our kewl blinkie!
You have until the end of this month - 29th October to link up your projects.
ALL THE BEST!!

Hi karuna, does digital stamps comes under stamping?
ReplyDeletethanks
kavitha
Hi Kavitha... If you are using R1 or C1 or D1 where it says "Stamping (Anything Goes)" then yes, digital stamps will do as it says 'anything goes.'
DeleteBut if you choose C2 or R4 which has stamping & colouring, we would want you to use rubber or acrylic stamps and colour it by hand using water colours, crayons, water colour pencils, copics, etc. and NOT use digital stamps.
I hope that answers your question. Let me know if there's anything else you need to know..
Cheers!
Team Lulupu.. :)
Hi thanks for clarifying,but have another doubt, suppose if i use a digital stamp for R1,C1 or D1, can i colour it? as its not mentioned, can we use the image for that.
ReplyDeletethanks
kavitha
Kavitha, as it says "Anything Goes" you can stamp anything, with or without colouring.. There is absolutely no restriction when it comes to stamping as a part of R1, D1 or C1.. :)
Deletethanks nikita for your reply, i think i better make a card and see your comments rather than asking so many doubts,still has many related to other rows :)
DeleteNo problem.. That's what we're here for.. If you have many queries, send an email to hello@lulupu.com and we will answer all of them.. Looking forward to your entry... :)
Deletesubmitting my entry, hope it qualifies,soon will be back with another card.
