Mixed media - Home decor Canvas

Hello My Dear Friends!!!!

I am Pavitra here with a mixed media canvas that i will be flaunting on my home wall. I used dies cuts for creating a layered effect.
Have a look !!!
Here is how i created the canvas

Die cut white cardstock using Chole die and Stitched Hexagonal die.
Layer gauge and torn papers on the canvas first and than layer die cuts.Cover the entire canvas with white gesso and leave it to dry.
Once dried properly color the canvas with paints and sprays. Darken the egdes of the die cuts using green and black paint .
In between the Chole die cut color with blue paint and on the edges use bronze 3D paint.
For a golden touch use inka gold and rub randomly on the entire canvas.
Stamp the flower image from A Little Not stamp set on iris cardstock and color using pencil colors , fussy cut and arrange on the canvas as shown,

Thank you
Hope you like my work for today

Hugs

2. Did background stenciling with the Abstract Triangle Stencil & Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide. 
3. Then did background stamping with grey archival inks using apt words from these stamps: Ampersand, With Love Daisy, Bold You & Little Wonder
4. Die cut frames with the Scallop Rectangle die, a few cute baby patterned papers with the new Stitched Hexagon Dies & the title using the new Baby Girl Word Die. Then Colored the die cuts with distress oxides/sprays.
5. Layered and adhered all the elements including the die cuts & embellishments (buttons, ribbon bows, laces, pearls, butterflies) using foam tape and tacky glue. 
6. In the end, did some additional stamping, added a few strips of Lovey Dovey Washi tape & created splatter with white gesso

4. Adhered the die cut to an A2 sized white cardbase, added a strip of glittery gold washi tape & Golden Days Washi Tape at the top
5. Finished the card with a few gold sequins. 

3. CAS Christmas Card


Process:

1. Heat embossed the pretty flower from the new Poinsettia Stamp in gold on watercolor paper
2. Colored the image with Festive Berries Distress Ink Refill, then fussy cut it
3. Die cut chocolate brown cardstock using the Dome Tower Die & heat embossed the sentiment from the Poinsettia stamp onto the die cut.
4. Assembled the card by foam mounting the die cut & flower onto a cream cardbase 
 5. To embellish the card used gold sequins, a bit of washi tape at the bottom and a few dots of red stickles.

Crafty inspiration with stamps!

Hello dear friends!

I'm back over at PABD with a quick post featuring some of the fantastic stamps that you saw in the new release yesterday.

My first project is a card made using the Bookworms stamp set. It is such a versatile set because it has a boy image and a girl image. This would be a perfect  accompaniment to a present of some boks to an avid little reader.

The sentiment actually reads "Between the pages of a book is a lovely place to be" but since I was keeping the project CAS I decided to mix it up with a sticker as an embellishment.

Colored with Staedtler colored pencils, added some glitter to bows in her hair, some of that gorgeous washi tape (Rainbow Hues, also by PABD) to a side and finished the project with a tiny flower embellishment.

Let's check out the second set of projects:

I love making ATCs so a co-ordinating set was about to begin the moment I saw the Floral Direction stamp set.

This stamp set, without a doubt is my favorite from the new release.

How could I not use Blotchy set from the last release with this set! These two sets go together like peanut butter and jelly!

I created the background with Color Bursts and Brushos, stamped Blotchy using Distress Oxides and stamped Floral Direction using Versafine.
Colored the blooms with Sakura pens, added washi and glitter.

I have used the Rainbow Hues & Boho Feathers washis in the ATCs, simply cause I just can't get enough of these beauties!

Priced at just Rs. 135/- you definitely gotta check these out... the variety and colors will blow your mind!
