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

Hi. This is the second coasters' set that I made for my mom. Unlike the one I made for my home (left in image I), this one is bright and colourful. I chose DCWV pattern papers with fruits so that it matches mom's dining room decor. 

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.
