Fly High

Hello my crafty friends.........

Before I start with the project,Wishing you all a very Happy New Year!!!!!!

So today i am sharing my first mixed media layout with a small tutorial....hope you all enjoy it ,so lets begin.
I fisrt selected a picture that i wanted to use as my focal point,next step was to choose a pattern paper that co-ordinated with the picture which was going to be my canvas.

I covered the pattern paper with a coat of modpodge to protect the paper from crumpling from all the sprays that i would be using.
To create the background i used a few sprays drying them inbetween till i was sattisfied with the colour.
Now to create a little texture i stuck a liitle coconut fibre and started alligining my focal point and all the other chipboard and the flower embelishments to complete my layout.
Added a piece of wood with a hand written sentiment.
*have painted my chippies to match my other focal point and the other embelishments.
finally added some paint splatters to finih the layout.

So here comes the pictures................

List of the materials used

1. all the chipboard embelishments - The Element Craft Studio

2. colour splash & coconut fibre - itsy bitsy

3. The rest of the materials like pollens ,die cut leaves ,wooden piece for the sentiment and all the little embelishments from my stash.

Thank You  for stopping by...

see you soon with another interesting project,till then.....

HAPPY CRAFTING!!!

Hello my crafty friends.......

Hope you all are doing fine.... sharing a little saturday morning project with you all today, I laid my eyes on this beautiful shaped soap dispenser and just felt could make it a little more interesting...so this is what i did

                                                                         

                                                                         BEFORE

Planned to decoupage on it and here is a little tutorial.......

firstly chose a print that i liked fusssy cut and then primed the suface of the dispenser with white acrylic paint.For the base color i choose black and to add some interest used the wood grain stencil .Remember to let the paint dry between each coat and finally decoupaged the print i fussy cut and sealed the whole pice with a coat of modpodge and 3 coats of varnish.

Decoupage love

Hello everyone........

Today i am back with one of my favourite craft ....and yes its DECOUPAGE.I have decoupaged a tray today..and loved the transformation hope you guys love it too,so without much delay here are the pics

I had this damaged tray for a while....but other than the crack it was perfectly fine and thought would be perfect to keep it on my table..so this is what i made.

p.s - sorry about the dirty table

I wanted a small partition so that i could keep my small beads and embellishments rolling down and going missing when I'm working on a project.

So to make the partition took a glue carton that i had and painted it with the same colour as the sides of the tray and added some resin embellishments and here is the final look.

Hope you all enjoyed this post ..

Happy Crafting
