Tiled Background Card

Hey. This card was created when I was doing the series of lattice window cards. Instead of a woven background, I tried using my tile punch to create a window effect. I punched the tile 6 times to create this bg. Then I cut out a window from the card base and adhered the tiled bg from inside. 

The chrysanthemum is a free dg from the net. I colored it using distress inks and glued atop the card with foam squares. The seam binding ribbon was colored using the same distress ink.

DIY Coasters 2 - Decoupage

DIY Decoupage Tissue Box 2

Hey there. This is another mdf tissue box that I altered. I first applied a coat of primer on it and then painted with peach acrylic color. I used decoupage tissues to cover the box. Then I embellished it using a mix of flowers, pearls and other embellishments. I also used a mdf sentiment cut-out on the box.

I extended the tissue paper design to the sides of the box. At the bottom edge I applied lace and self adhering peals.

Tea pot shaped card

Hi. I love making shaped cards and special fold cards when I get bored with the regular ones. This time I tried a totally new shape. The tea pot shaped card! I got the shape from internet and then traced and hand-cut it on card stock. The green embossed paper used on top of CS is readymade. The sentiment and tatty teddy is from Paper Mania paper pack. I punched flowers in silver glitter paper and backed it with pink paper to match the CS. 

DIY Coasters 1 - Decoupage

Hi All. I have been MIA since quite some time now. The reason is that I am blessed with a baby boy on 10th July. I am off crafting for a few months now, but I thought I will share some of the projects I made before delivery.

I made this decoupage coaster set for my home. My husband wanted something different and apt for the coffee table. The pattern paper used here is from Prima - Engraver paper pad which I had won at a challenge at BGC.  I distressed the edges using Distress inks. After a few days I coated it with mod podge.

DIY Decoupage Tissue Box1

Hi all.... I have been bitten by the decoupage bug and I am trying my hands at various articles. Today I am sharing a tissue box that I made for my dad's car. 

The mdf tissue box is from Craftslane.  I first applied a coat of primer on it and then painted with peach acrylic color. I used decoupage tissues sent to me by Maninder of Rainbow Craftykari blog. Then I embellished it using a mix of flowers, pearls and metal heart embellishment. For the sides, I have cut out a large oval doily and pasted on the upper part of the box. And for the lower part, I have used Ms Fence punch, and punched out on pattern paper.

The base i.e. the flower pot CS is a handmade paper which had a pretty texture and made my work easy.

 

All the flowers and leaves are stamped and fussy cut. The flower stamp is from Inkadinkado. The small leaves stamp is from Itsy Bitsy and the big leaves stamp is a foam stamp which I had bought long back from Hobby Ideas.
