Everyday Love layout

Hello friends,

Today I have a beautiful project to show you all. This one is a lovely layout putting feelings on paper in form of art.I have made this for a friend and her baby.





For this layout I used the sketch provided by Altenew for their altenew-sketch-challenge-5



I really loved the sketch and wanted to play along definitely ...the color dots are my favorite ones given on the sketch,so incorporating these colors was such a joy.

To make this layout ,first I took a pattern paper,this one is from Femina (Papericious).Link to the blog is papericiousindia.blogspot.in/  I also took One of the Papericious Chipboard and heat embossed it with snow white glitter embossing powder.I loved how the pattern paper and chipboard added lot of shimmer to my layout.

After that I have used Stamp set from Altenew which is Peony Scrolls and heat embossed them in gold before coloring them with watercolors.I did fussy cut to these flowers and scrolls.

I have used few embellishments to adorn it like some stickers.The title is my favorite from one of the paper pack designed by Divya Thallap .

Sharing some close ups of the layout with you







I had lot of fun making this beauty.Hope u enjoyed it too.

I am entering it ti following challenges:


Adding it here as I have added a lot of shimmer to the project and its shining bright and lovely.


That's all from my side today.Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Crafting!!

Business name plate with Shimmer sprays and pastes

Hello Friends,

I am back again on Craftyscrappers blog with my new mixed media project.This one is a business name plate which I did recently for a friend who is into Saree business.I have used the super amazing and gorgeous products from Craftyscrappers which is launched recently in the name of "Shimmer sprays and Shimmer Pastes"...I totally loved using them,before I talk more on the versatility of these products,let me show you some of the pictures of my project first.



To make this one,I took a cardboard piece of size 7*8 inches and started pasting some scrap thin sheets of various colors card stocks....most of these strips were like leftovers from my earlier projects.


After that I took the Victorian stencil by Craftyscrappers and used it on the panel along with Blush shimmer paste and let it dry.We can heat dry also these shimmer pastes with the help of heat tool in case want to fasten the process.


Once my paste dried,I sprayed the shimmer paints on the paste...I still feel my picture is not justifying the real beauty of these sprays...these sprays blends beautifully with the paste and cover desired surface.I have used Bitter lemon and Ocean waves shimmer sprays.


Then I took a pattern sheet cut it first and then did hand tearing to make it look a little more designer.



Then i pasted it on the panel using Matt medium glue.Next I used a lady stamp from Craftyscrappers ,hand painted it giving it a tint of gold by using Inka gold and creating Indian gold thread weaved Saree,I have often seen my mom wearing such Sarees but getting the feel on paper was real fun to try. Once all done ,have fussy cut it and pasted on the panel as shown in the picture.





On the borders,I have used Washi tape by Craftyscrappers...this tape added much desired shiny border to my project.


Next I have used some stamps from "U Sparkle" which gave meaning to the whole project.The word "Arbee" is brand name and not any stamp.



This completes my project,Sharing some close ups of the work below






I had lot of fun creating this piece and playing with my new possession,the shimmer pastes and sprays.

I hope u enjoyed it too.

Happy crafting!!

Sparkle and Shine

Hello Friends,
Today I am so excited..this is my first post for Craftyscrappers as a design team member.I have a beautiful inspiration project for you all where I have used lot of Craftyscrappers products.Before I talk more on these awesome products,let me give you a glimpse of my work.My inspiration behind this project are my two little princesses,my daughters...Myra and Misha.






To make this piece,I used a canvas board as my base.Then I applied a coat of Gesso all over the board.On one of the corner,I used Rose Bunch stencil from Craftyscrappers with modelling paste and let it dry.I had an old crochet piece done by my mom which was little torn on half of one side...i used the other half to create a beautiful semicircle pattern running on side of the board.I stuck this using multi medium matte glue.After that I applied one coat of Gesso all over on the crochet piece.

I made these flowers separately and colored them using distress inks.Then they are hand molded to turn into blooms. Center of flowers is enamel dots.

Once all the Gesso is dried,i started with my favorite activity with my favorite Craftycrappers release...The Shimmer sprays...I have used a mix of 3 colors in sprays...The effect is awesome..I think my project is already speaking about the goodness of these sprays....definitely a must try for all crafters and non crafters too.

I have used heat tool to dry the sprays .Then I used some quotes from "U SPARKLE" stamp set ..stamping with Craftyscrappers stamps is super cool as they are good with all surfaces.I used black archival ink to do stamping.

Lastly I have stuck some embellishments like beads,Inka gold,printed quotes from Prima marketing,resin frame,mdf ruler embellishment and Stampendous gold luxe mix to enhance the beauty.

Sharing some close ups now
