[Guest] Doily Circle, 3 Ways with Ashwini Rao
Hello everyone! Its Ashwini for my second (and last! Sniff!) post as a Guest Designer! Today, I am sharing a few cards using the Waffle Flower Crafts Doily Circle. This is a die that I really love, but haven't made many projects out of - so I challenged myself to use this die in a variety of ways - 3 ways in fact. So here goes - Technique 1 - Aluminum foil Using aluminum foil might be an old techqniue, but it is new for me! :) Moreover, since this is such an intricate die, I learnt a thing or...
[Guest] Little Stamps Background with Monochrome Animals by Ashwini Rao
Hello everyone! Its Ashwini here. Thank you so much Waffle Flower Crafts, for having me over as a Guest Designer! I have a couple of cards today with the cute animals from the Monochrome stamp set - I've used some pattern paper and some custom made background for these two cards.

I then chose a series of at least 6-8 colors for each card, choosing greens, blues and grey for the card with the zebra and pinks, yellows and grey for the...
[Guest] My World is Just B&W without You by Torico
Hi everyone! It’s Torico again. I have a black and white card to share with you today. In my previous post, I tried to use the tiny accessory stamps in the Monochrome stamp set for my focal point.

The flowers were die cut using the Flower Circles and the Flower Circles Inverted Die. I added enamel dots to the center of each flower and drew some dots with a white gel pen....

So I decided to challenge myself to use the tiny heart stamps in the Monochrome stamp set to create a focal point of my card. I cut out a scalloped rectangle panel using the Lacy Layers Die, then stamped the tiny hearts with four colors of dye inks to create a pile of hearts. I added some white dots to the hearts using a white gel pen. I stamped a mouse on the top of the pile with dark...
