Postcard with flowers

Posted by Rajni Chawla

Hello all...

Today I' m here to share my guest dt project for Joy crafts.  It was really great fun using Joy craft stamps and loved the quality of the image...very crisp and very clear. 

I have used joy crafts clear stamp 6410/0044, stencil 6002/0172 , floral flourish 6002/0158 to create this card. The image is first stamped and then colored with Worn Lipstick and Aged Mohaghany distress inks using Koi brush. The flower is then fussy cut and little embossed from its back using embossing tools. Tapped down the flower with Versamark Stamped Pad and heat set with UTEE. The flourishes are also colored with distress inks and heat
set with UTEE.

Hi..

The clock kept ticking.....the hours n days are going by....and one more year passed without you.

We never can just stop time. Or take moments back.

Life doesn't work that way, does it???

I still can’t believe that he is gone, and perhaps I never will. I never thought that I would be alone, and in my mind, I know that being alone is the hardest thing that I will ever have to do.

It will be completing 5 years on 7th Aug without him. My friends and family assume that I am moving on.  Little do they know that there are days when all I do is think about him, days when all I long for is to see his smile, and feel his touch just one more time.  Little do they know that after five years there are nights when I still cry myself to sleep.

AHHH !!!

 “time heals all wounds.”  I want to tell people that the wound in my heart remains open, and that time will never heal it.  But, they wouldn’t understand.  Time for me has only led to a form of acceptance.  A form of acceptance that comes and goes as it pleases, because there are days when you cannot accept the loss.  Yes, there are days when grief washes over you in uncontrollable waves of sadness.

I somewhere read.... “Our wounds run deep, our undying love is forever, and staying connected beyond the veil brings us comfort.”

Today the waves of pain are less frequent but no less intense. I cry unexpectedly and then feel better.  I’ve learned to live without him but not to forget him; to honor the memory of what was, while functioning in the world that is.

Today I am sharing this project to welcome the sadness that keeps us connected .This picture has captured a moment that has gone forever....but will always remain alive in my heart. If I could, I would live forever in this moment. But no one can live in a moment, and time moves......on.

Hello friends !!

I have been a lousy blogger not at all active in making any post on blog.Sorry,I kept you waiting for so long.....will try to maintain my regularity now.

Recently I have added few new products to my craft room. Quilled creation jewellery rings...Washi Tapes...UTEE and so many new dies. Quilled Creation Jewelry rings are brass rings with black nickel-free and lead free base.These rings are available in 5/8th" and 1/4th"in size n 1/8th" depth and comes 2 pieces per pack.My daughter was after  me to make something for her with these amazing rings.She was very happy when she got two instead of one and that too....colors of her choice.Some times I really get very confused when so many new things gets piled up and i don't get sufficient time to try my hands on them.Today I'll be sharing the result of my this beautiful confusion.I called it beautiful as it really turned up so well. Everything i used was quite new to me. Read so many reviews about these rings n UTEE  but was not sure at all how will they turn out when combined together.

Here is what I came  up with...

Here is the side view....
Isn't it yummy!!!

I know you guys are definitely going to try this beauty.Here is the tutorial for this... 

 Prepare a card stock of light color matching to your washi tapes by sticking them together without leaving any space in between. Either die cut or use templates to cut 2 different sizesof flowers. Ink up the flower cut outs with versamark ink and sprinkle UTEE. Shake off excess UTEE. Hold the die cut with your foreceps and melt it with heating tool. Repeat the process till u get desired results. Shape up the petals when little warm. Pierce both the flowers with Crop a dile and hold them together with a brad. Give a fine quoting of mod podge to make it wash proof. Now fix the ready flower to quilled creation jewellery ring with glossy accent.

You can easily find Quilled Creation Jewelry Rings at Imaginations, the Premium Craft Supply Store.

Happy crafting :)
