Mixed media cover

Hello Friends!
Anushree here

Today I have a Mixed media layout to inspire you completely.

For this layout I have used Color splash stencil and Distress circle stencil from Craftyscrappers.I used Shimmer paste,Sonoma,Tickled and Pumpkin to create base for the layout fisrt.,with these pastes I did wet paste embossing on the layout.The paste dries in next 15 minutes giving a gorgeous 2D embossing effect.Then I pasted mesh fabric with the help of Fun glue by Craftyscrappers.

The Flower is handmade with White Cardstock from Craftyscrappers again and then I painted it using Shimmer sparay-Grape juice.Leaves are also painted using shimmer spray-bitter lemon.

I applied one more top coat of shimmer sprays on overall project after attaching them to desired places.The Mdf's are also from the Craftyscrappers and painted with prima acrylic colors.Lastly added some gold micro beads here and there on the layout to add shimmer.

Hope you liked what I made today

Happy Crafting!!

Life and You!!

Hi Friends,

Today I have a mixed media project to show you all,For this project I have used lot of awesome supplies from Craftyscrappers. Let me share a picture of it first and then will brief about supplies and instructions to do.

For this project,I took a simple silver card stock and applied some Ash shimmer paste and let it dry.Once its dried I run it through an embossing folder.Then I stuck this sheet to cardboard,for second layer I took a gift wrapping shimmery sheet and again embossed it with same folder,then stuck that on top of base with help of double sided tape.

After that I stuck a window die cut from one of the pattern papers.Next I used Craftyscrappers "IM Stuck On U" stamp set to stamp and water color these beautiful succulents.I did fussy cutting to these stamps and again attached with double sided tape.The sentiment is a metal embellishment stuck on a background created using same ash shimmer paste and some blue and green metallic paints.

Sharing some pics of close ups now

Hope u liked my creation.

Clay flowers on mixed media

Hello friends,

Today I am quite excited for this post as I have tried something very new and different.Till now we all were exploring Craftyscrappers Fun foils on bases like paper,mdf and vellum.I have gone a step forward and have tried on Air dry Clay.To my surprise,it worked well on that as well.I had superb outcome.Let me share a picture of the frame I made using funfoiled clay flowers.

I simply loved the shimmery effect on the petals.Sharing the complete project pic along with few more close ups.

For the base,I covered cardboard with Black heavy gesso first,applied some red acrylic paint on a portion and then used shimmer paste along with stencil.Both paste and stencil are from Craftyscrappers. In the center I used a hand painted image and stuck mdf ornate around.

Rest of the flowers are all stuck with the help of silicon glue.Here are the pics of the procedure.

I have a video tutorial where I have shown the making of clay flower and how I have used fun foils on the petals of the flower.

Do watch the video and leave feedback.

I enjoyed the making and hope you will enjoy it too.

Diwali tray with shimmery satin flowers

Hello Everyone!!

Diwali is around ,Festival of lights and loads of celebration,so today I have created a beautiful and elegant tray to go well with the occasion .My inspiration behind was definitely the festive mood. This tray can be used for various purposes like keeping potpourri and candle,how I have shown in the pic,or to keep dry fruits during festival time or to keep any other decorative item as well.

I have made these lovely shimmery flowers by using satin ribbons and shimmer sprays,which I have attached on the side of the tray giving my tray such a unique look.

To make these flowers I have used Botanical Wings Die from Heartfelt Creations.This was the first time I was trying die cutting on a satin ribbon and I was extremely happy with the fine and neat cut by my dies

Let me show you some close ups as well.

Hope you have enjoyed this creative work..Do leave love and feedback below.

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

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

 

Here is list of craftyscrappers products used for this project

1.Rose bunch stencil
