Yeah…a simple CAS styled one with no fancy embellies or layers 🙂

5″x7″ kraft cs is matted with a watercolor panel which is smooshed with versamark ink from top directly from inkpad and embossed with white opaque wow embossing powder, just to mimic the falling snow.

Below which, using LSG spray , loosely spread the mist with plenty of water and prepared the front panel. Small scrap piece of white cs taken which is smooshed with versamark and embossed with silver fine embossing powder and then its used to diecut Cheerlynn snowflake diecuts. Its one of those easy ways to emboss the teeny tiny diecuts.

Silver embossed IBS sentiment on vellum and a piece of silver grey glitter tape to finish off the card.
Hope you like it!

Took 5.5″ topfold card and to it added a kraft cardstock.

Stamped snowbanks and trees using momento inks and to it added Diamond stickles. And sprinkled white opaque embossing powder and heat set it to mimic snow fall and on the banks, using versamark ink, randomly spread the ink and heat embossed using white opaque embossing powder

The memory box deer trio is cut on a kraft cs and its sponged on edges using Momento rich cocoa and using white frost pigment ink, its sponged randomly and added to the snow banks.

The edges of the kraft cs are distressed using scissors and are sponged with Momento rich cocoa. IBS Snowflakes are stamped using versamark and heatset using white opaque EP. And with white frost pigment ink, the edges are lightly sponged again to give a snowy atmosphere.

Twinklets Diamond dust is added as the shaker elements as its the only element i had in hand and hope it perfectly would suit the winter scene. Am not all that glitter lover, hope this diamond dust and stickles gives that subtle shimmer and glam. The round dome is carefully then placed.

A small floral spray using few leaves diecut and which are distressed using peeled paint, shabby shutters, berries which are colored red and heat embossed with clear EP, and stick pollens with a red knotted bow added with a white tulle piece.

A side notched vellum sentiment banner is added to finish off the card.

Hope you like this first ever try of my Shaker card 🙂

Mod squad challenge – All that glitters

Today’s project from my end is a long awaited attempt of Mixed media Reverse canvas.

The whole canvas – Gold, pink, fuschia, glitters, brush scrip letterings all inspired from Scrap Around The World ‘s gorgeous moodboard. Its their final challenge and we are gonna miss such a inspirational place. I learnt a lot from that blog and its my 4th time participating there.

Took 8″x10″ canvas and trimmed the canvas ends a bit, added lace trims and gessoed down wholly. For its centre, wished to add a sturdy box lid which was originally a packaging box of perfumed spray.  Glued the wooden pieces of stretched bars, which acccompanies the stretched canvas on the box lid randomly and applied a generous coat of gesso and stenciled that with TCW tetraquadra foil stencil. Meanwhile, using modelling paste, stenciled the centre portion using MFT moraccan tile. Added box lid using glue gun on canvas centre.

On the sides of canvas, stenciled with TCW mini Art is and mini Damask stencil using Prima modelling paste. Once its dried, sprayed LSG Glory of seas Gold and cocklebells Coral drying at each interval using Ranger’s Heat it tool.

Added floral spray, vines, Prima resin, metal embellishments on the centre box lid and slightly gessoed down. The edges of big blooms are gold embossed using Ranger’s superfine gold Ep. Gold glitter balls, Lipgloss microbeads are added to resin. Prima junkyard treasure Inspire Zipper added to the metal butterfly. Timholtz wordtag band added with thin ribbon. A tiny vial of copper micro glitters are added and glued down near the word band.

Few portions of the box are highlighted with pink and gold gelatos.

Stamplorations stamps – Create and Discover are heat embossed on Vellum and added to the canvas. Prima Swirls are gessoed and sprayed with LSG Gold and coral sprays and after which gold heat embossed with Ranger’s gold EP. Then its sanded a bit randomly to show through the layers and added on corners.

Prima copper micro glitters, gold pearls are randomly added as accents in the canvas.
Hope you like my first attempt at Reverse Canvas, with a twist of Upcycled bit 🙂

Mixed media monthly challenge #19 – (used Gold)

Its been a long time, since i posted in my blog. Bit busy with Little one’s exams and it just got over today and very soon his winter holidays gonna start.

Made this Winter Mixed media canvas taking inspirations from the gorgeous moodboard below, which screams snowy wintery weather 🙂

Am linking this to Scrap around the world – November challenge

Its a 8″x10″ stretched canvas which i primed with gesso and started to work on. The snow drippings were made using the hot glue gun and its gessoed again to take up inks.

Central focal image is made using the cinnamon sticks from my potpourri collection. The idea is got from the pic inspiration, with varying lengths of sticks and glued down using hot glue gun on a vellum and added a paper pieced star to it. It was further matted with pps from Papermania Christmas collections.

The textures are made using TCW tile stencil using Finnabair Modelling paste and drywall tape and surrounded it added texture paste clear crackle and used back of spatula to create textures to it,

Used heat gun to dry the paste and sprayed LSG – Azure Sea Asters for those gorgeous shine of blue starting from the glue gun drips.

Added the focal element with Cheerylynn Designs Italin florish diecut, few resin pieces, cabocons, Gold heat embossed IBS sentiment on vellum, and few Cheerylynn designs snowflake diecuts on silver cs around it.

At the bottom of the canvas, added glue generously and added White shiny finish popbeads and to which sprinkled perfect pearls for the shiny snowy bank effect and the same applied on the glue gun drips too for the shine with little water.

Hope you like it!
