Floral backgrounds,Pink Fresh Studio

Hello everyone,

Recently I placed my kind of big order from Simon Says Stamp and got this beautiful stamp set "Floral backgrounds" from Pink Fresh Studio,Here is my very first card from this lovely stamp set..

I took a card base of 5*6 inches,stamped the image with black archival ink and then water colored it.Then I added clear embossing powder on the whole as i wanted to make it little glossy.Adhered Washi tape all four sides and lastly stuck a puffy sticker with sentiment along with some enamel dots.

I am playing along with following challenges with this card.

I was inspired by song 5 Spring flowers which is currently everyone's favorite in my house since my 3 year old daughter is completely stuck on to it for a while😅

Elegant name plate!

Today I want to show you a name plate done by me recently...This one is completely up cycled. I have used some scraps of wood lying with me to create this name plate.Let me share a picture of the plate first.

So I started by taking two vertical panels and fixed hooks on both at the back of them.I have used a Paper from No One but You Scrapbook paper from Bob and Betty.I used Mod Podge to adhere the paper to the base.For the horizontal panels,I have used Papericious Naturals designer paper and again adhered with Mod podge. The circles used on the left hand top corner are the old coasters which have been decoupaged with Bob and Betty Festive assortments decoupage papers.The smaller circle is colored with Papericious Chalk paints with a hint of Acrylic colors and topped with Glossy accents.

The names on the plate are covered with Papericious Heavy black Gesso and topped with Glossy accents to add shine and volume to the project.

The peacocks are colored with Papericious chalk paints and then topped with white sparkle.

Hope you liked it.

I am joining this name plate to following challenge:

Hello Sunshine !!

Hello friends,

I had an awesome weekend as my close friend and her kids came to visit us...It was super fun filled weekend with lot of crafting,painting,swimming and last but not the least loads of delicious food.
Now back to making some gorgeous cards.Today I have made a card with Create A Smile stamps. These stamps are lovely with awesome quality.I have been eyeing on these beauties for long and finally have added some to my stash.Sharing card below

I have used flowers from Cart full of treasure stamp set and have done lots of masking.I did stamping with black archival first and then water colored the flowers.I tried making a big spring bouquet .Once all done I have die cut the piece with a circle die.

For making the card,I took a 5*5 inches white base card and attached a green vellum strip of 2*3 inches  from the right.Then attached the floral colored piece up on the vellum with double sided tape.I added a sentiment by die cutting with Stamplorations (Cutplorations) Hello Sunshine Phrase Die using gold sheet.

Attached all with clear glue and lastly added some fun dots with Rangers enamel accent.Happy to see my first floral spring card for the month.Sharing few more pics of the card

I am joining fun on the following blogs with this card:

Shimmery Succulent Pot

Hello friends,

Today I have a quick inspiration for the current Craftyscrappers challenge.I have made this lovely pot using my mixed media skills and Craftyscrappers products.Let me share a picture of it before sharing the procedure and material.

I took a simple pot and painted it with gesso all over.Once the gesso dried,I sprayed the pot with bitter lemon shimmer spray from Craftyscrappers and let it dry again.

I have stamped some pots and succulents from Craftyscrappers stamp set "I am stuck on  you" with Black archival Ink.I have painted these using ranger enamel accents to uplift the coloring,some places I have also colored with archival inks as they are waterproof inks.

Then I took some frosting powder and added  little bitter lemon shimmer spray to it and mixed it well.On the top of the pot ,I applied this colored frosting powder with the help of matt medium.Bottom I have added some inka gold effect.

Hope you enjoyed this quick makeover of pot.

Happy crafting

Anushree
