Here is my love  layout cause our theme is Hearts & Arrows it mean about Love .

I use a pattern paper from Kaisercraft - Mix & Match Collection  , it suitable for my vintage style .First I tear one of a pattern paper and glued randomly , after that I apply white gesso with sponge. 

I continued with more papers craps, pieces of lace and photo, building dimension layer by layer – great technique when you want to get rid of the paper pieces from your desk! Some 3D foams were adding extra dimension too!  Then I add a little colour with gellatos 

I use some vintage boy and a little couple images  to my focal point. 

 I use a vintage stamp,  I added some stamping on the top of my white texture after that I tore the top and bottom of the paper, and glued with a card stock to make the page 12'x12' 

I decorated the pieces , a wooden arrows , a heart die cut, flowers , a fussy cut of  butterfly and vintage clock from the paper.

and add paper flowers 

The chippie Love Takes Times is my Title and I color the chipboard with ink spray and cover a little with Silks acrylic glaze.

Mixed media card tutorial

Hello everyone!!!

Neha here, and this time I am sharing with you a mixed media card along with a pictorial. I love doing mixed media and generally I make layouts or canvas using it but for the first time I am doing a card. Here is my card. 

The central panel on the card is done with a no. of small hexagons placed over a CS (sprayed with LSG spray) using foam dots. For the base I took a white CS and matted a PP from Prima epiphany collection over it. Added some lace on both sides of Hexagon panel and matted it over pp panel. 

Some closeups 

Lets see how to make this.

1. Take a piece of CS and splatter different colors from LSG sprays and other paint. Cover all white spaces. Let it dry. 

2. After drying use a stencil to trace the shape with a pencil. You can use any stencil. I used here honeycomb stencil.

Now cut the shapes. Cut as many as you need to cover the panel.

3. Distress the edges of hexagonal shapes and a white CS over which you will place them with vintage photo DI. 

4. Color the CS with LSG sprays. I used here Glory of the seas gold. 

5. Now place the hexagons in a pattern over the CS using foam dots to add dimension. 

Add some gold paint using your fingers.

6. Heat emboss some chunky black embossing enamel.

7. Spray some more color, splatters of pink and black paint and add some glass beads from Prima. 

Next add some piece of lace on both sides of the above panel.

8. Now take a piece of white CS which will form the card base and mat a pp over it. Glue the hexagonal panel in its center.

 9. Distress the edges of pp with vintage photo DI and soften the look with gesso. Add some gesso over lace also. 

10. Embellish the card with net, Prima wire thread, Prima flowers, leaves, wood veneers and charms. Splatter some black paint, on the edges of hexagons and your card is ready. 

I am happy the way it came out finally.What do you think. Let me know. Do take part in our current challenge here. 

Hugs!

Desk Organizer - Mixed Media Project

Hello Everyone,

Shilpa here,

We have wonderful theme for this fortnight. 

Make Gift Set

Gift set means 'Card with matching box, gift bags with tags, Easel card and box, Altered notebook/matching stationary and etc'

When ever we want to make gift for someone, we think about that person, how she is, what she will like, which colors make her happy etc.

And I made this Desk Organizer for my angel doctor. She is retired now, but I love to meet her. And because of old age many times she does not find her pen and paper at a place. And She has lot of interest in art and colors. So here it is- Desk Organizer for my Angel Doctor

It has 4 holders. There is lot of space for pens, papers, colors, pencils etc. Ohh yes...you can see my Faber Castell goodies here. Doesn't it look good?

 I also made tag , that goes along with gift,

Here are some more pictures

It all started with empty tape rolls. I adhered design paper on it with Modge Podge. Applied gesso at some places. I used Prima White Sand texture paste and Memory Box stencil  to create texture.

When it dried completely, I spritzed Lindy's Stamp gang inks in various red and blue colors.

I colored Prima resin frame with same blue color and applied silver glitter with Prima soft gel medium.

 I made flowers with Spelbinders Rose creation die. I also adhered red glass beads and red glitter for decoration. Cute bird at the top is wood veneer piece, colored with inks. 

Recently, I found this fantastic glue at Lulupu - Aleene's Turbo Tacky Glue, it is fast drying and stronger. It is my new favourite crafty tool.

Thats it for today.

Come join us for this fun challenge. Make a festive gift for your near and dear ones, we would love to read the story behind your creation. :)

Mixed Media Card with Background stamp and Mists

Hello everyone!
 

This is Jaya here.

Hope you all are enjoying the fun challenge -Background Stamps+Mists hosted by our very talented DT Kripa this fortnight.

 

 Here is my mixed media card for you as inspiration.

 

I used my background stamp to create the illusion of a garden with butterflies and vines and used my mists to colour the entire scene.
 

STEP BY STEP-

 

For this card, I first chose the base on which I had to start building up my design.

I decided  to go with a semi gloss chipboard. This was none other than the packaging I had saved from my Martha Stewart scoreboard.

 

Next I randomly sprayed my Lindys Starburst sprays on this in Bachelor button blue, 

Sea Grass green, Sea mint green and Tweedle Dee Denim Flat Fabio. 

 

 I then stamped my Justrite Background Stamp- Butterfly and Vines in Black Archival Ink. 

I lifted off some ink from the image from the top portion before it could dry.

 

Again a coat of Lindy's sprays lighten the stamping further.Then heat dried all of this.

 

 Now I started with my stencils from Magenta and used some texture paste mixed with Lindy's  Stamp gang spray-  Cape Cod Coral and made the flowers.

 

The butterflies are also from the same stencil with I made using some texture paste in black and later coated them with glossy accents and some glitter.

 I also used the Prima- Bubbles stencil to make the bubbles. Outlined them with charcoal pencil and filled in with some white and light blue Oil pastels.

 

Made the centre of the flowers with LSG Sprays- Rambling Rose Pink

 Gave a few splatters with LSG sprays- Rambling Rose Pink , Bachelor Button blue and 

Shimmerz Spray- white

 

 I applied some glossy accents to the top portion of the card and coated it with diamond dust. When dry I lightly added some Tweedle Dee Denim Flat Fabio on this and allowed it to seep through the crevices. Also used my latest buy Prima chalk edger fluid set #2. -Green for highlighting the grasses and stems

  I also distressed the edges of the card with Prima comfort craft tool.

 

Lastly made a Hashtag sentiment- Happy days with Studio Calico wood veneer-Alphabets and coated it with black paint and glossy accents.

 

Hope you liked the card and were inspired enough to participate. Only a couple of days left to get in your entry into this challenge.
So don't forget to enter your creations here.
