Now for some inspiration...
I created this card using Impression Obessions dies and stamps from the 'Rinding Pretty' set!
And, then, I used the Chibitronics led light circuit to light up this card!!!
Other stamps and dies used as from Hero Arts, lawn Fawn and Litle B
Isn't this fun?
You can learn how to create your own circuit using the Chibitronics starter kit,
HERE.
I also made this tag using the beautiful hollyhocks die from Impression Obsession, and a stencil from My Favourite Things. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp and the pretty sequins from
Pretty Pink Posh.
For more inspiration,
I have the Fabulously talented

Hi Everyone!
I am Bhavana. Thank You Paru, for inviting me as a guest designer!
I feel so honoured.
A little about me..
I am from India and currently live in Santa Clara, California. I love card making and I have been making cards for the past 6 years.
I love anything artsy and craftsy. You can check out my work at my blog
I am excited and had fun making cards with the LOVE theme.
My first card is very simple; I did an ink smooshing technique for the background using 'Fired Brick' distress ink and water, the love hand sign is from Paper Smooches 'Helping Hand' stamp set.
For my second card, I used Sugar Pea designs, 'Enchanted Garden' stamp set and dies.
I used Zig real brush pens watercolour markers to colour them. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp 'Favourite flowers' stamp set.
I adhered the image using foam tap and added some clear sequins to finish my card.
For the tag, I used Winnie and Walter's 'You've got mail' stamp set. For the background stamping I used aged mahogany distress ink and did second generation stamping and for the envelopes I used water colours.
The stamped sentiment is from the same set.
I hope you have been inspired!
Happy Crafting!
