Easy to make cards with stamps and pattern papers

Hello everyone,

         Riswana here with you today. Am so excited to be sharing my first DT post on the Lulupu blog.!

   

Did you check the new Challenge #63 - Sketch for this month?! Here's my take on the beautiful sketch by Sindhu.

I've used the "Enchanted" paper collection from simple stories for this card. I love love love these papers with their beautiful pastel shades & so many 'princess'y elements :)

I've used a regular paper punch to add some holes & fussy cut to make the PP look like a notepad paper & crushed a little bit to add some texture.

To make the focal point, Added some glass bead glitter gel & sprinkled some pink micro beads on the bg. Fussy cut the crown & star wand images from the paper pack & heat embossed with clear sparkle embossing powder. I also embossed the swirls in the second layer with the same EP.

Added wink of stella clear glitter & glossy accents, on some areas to add more sparkle & shine.

For the sentiment, Made a banner out of the PP & mounted with foam squares.

This card is super sparkly in person & I wish I could have captured it all in picture.!

Here's another simple & fun card with a totally different look.

I used Mudra play with lines stampset & memento dye inks to create the striped bg. Added a layer of vellum & mounted the flowers & sentiment banner to finish the card. The flowers are from inkadinkado doodle flowers stampset, stamped with Archival jet black ink, colored with Zig clean color real brush pens & a gemstone brad added in the center.

Hope you liked my projects. Looking forward to see your wonderful creations for the sketch Challenge .!

Create. Have fun.

Mood Board Inspired Scrapbook LO

Hello and good morning, friends!

Jasleen here today :)

As you all might be aware of the April's Challenge #60- Inspired by Moodboard and I'm sure you all must have enjoyed the DT work shared so far. So today it's my turn to share what I made inspired by the colourful mood board.

I came up with a school-themed scrapbook layout using the amazing Insta-squares from Simple Stories-- Back to school. I was inspired by the colours, the black label with white text, the polka dots and the chevron pattern.

Simple Stories Carpe Diem Planner in action | Video

Hello, everyone!

Nikita here and I am back to show you something exciting! The whole crafting community has been buzzing with Simple Stories' new planner collection - the Carpe Diem Planners - and I am excited to announce that the planners and its accessories are now available at Lulupu. So if you've been thinking of buying them, do check the link out. :D

I've been waiting to share my planner and how I've personalised it and I am so, so, glad that I am finally going to be able to do so. In the video below, I will show you how I've added my name, decorated the weekly pages, what stickers and other à  la carte items I'm using. I will also show you how I'm using tiny little otherwise-going-unnoticed stamps from my regular stamp sets, as planner stamps.
