Pink Posies :)

~ Sathya ~ Leave a comment

Very happy to share that, today my card is being featured at Inspired By Stamping blog. Would like to thank Joanna and IBS team for this opportunity. This card and the co-ordinating box is made by IBS products  such as Spring liliac, Vintage floral paperpads, Sweet Valentine and Butterfly wings Stamp sets

Now onto card 🙂

Used this pic for inspiration.

The pps from Spring floral and Vintage floral are taken in light mint and baby pink color and matted. Used Picket fence distress stains randomly on pps to tone down their colors. This card front is matted with 6×6 white base cs.

Tore the pp at top left corner and curled up the edges, such that inner pp later is visible. And inbetween that space, tucked a baby pink tulle. Baby pink roses are made using Joy craft die and leaves are made from CLD rose leaf die and muted the color of it by applying picket fence DS on it.

Fillers flowers, mini rose buds are added to create the spray and teeny tiny bow added. Butterflies are heat embossed on vellum and colored with spun sugar Distress ink. Sentiment is stamped on a white vellum and heart pearls are added. Few white pearls as accents.

Box 🙂

Box and Card:)

This box is so very apt for holding 3dimensional projects such as 6×6 cards. Made a box from 300 gsm kraft cs and used velcro for its closures. On the sides, used CLD tiffany border on white cs. And on top of it, followed the same color scheme as card. Used digital freebies for pps and matted on each other using foam adhesive. Mulberry flowers with candi polka dot centres, a mft florish, grosgrain ribbon and few pearls are added. Sentiment is added on a Venetian label frame and added at centre.

I absoultely enjoyed doing this monochromatic shabby chic project. Hope you like it too!

Spring Love – Mixed Media Frame :)

~ Sathya ~ 29 Comments
This is my first frame in mixed media style. Am completely unknown of intricacies of this art, just enjoyed the fun playing with different mediums and colors and getting inky fingers 🙂 Wanted to bring spring mood with cheerful blooms and fluttering butterflies is the basic idea and hope i have done some decent job 🙂 Now onto my work…

Another view

Last week, we enjoyed Chocolate Truffle cake for little one’s birthday and i couldnt throw the cakeboard in trash. Instead wanted to turn this to be a keepsake artpiece 🙂

This altered / upcycled work is done from scratch. The glossy layer was torn off and on the thick cardboard, i made the base using the white acrylic paint and Homemade Gesso. And to that pps were added from Handmade memories paperstack and formed the base. Here Teal layer is added as if pink layer was torn off and showing the underlying layer. And few other places too, Teal pp were added as layers at corners. A portion of mint green pp were paper pieced and added to the pink pp and all glued and layered down with Homemade Modpodge.

Homemade Textured paste is used to give those textures at background, using Tessatina border diecut. And on sides, comb were used to bring about the semicircular concentric patterns with same Homemade texture paste.

Homemade mists were prepared using acrylic colors, pearlescent, metallic acrylic colors and sprayed using mini mister. At few places, i washed down the frame with mists and muted the colors using Homemade gesso layers.

See the clustered floral spray. Those blooms are all handmade roses and muted with layer of gesso. Blue flowers were first white ones and then misted with blue acrylic paint and toned down again gesso. Diecut florishes, leaves were all layered with on top with gesso.

Baby pink Tulle pieces are tucked under few roses to give soft shade. The shiny glossiness of the glittered diecut hearts are due to UTEE clear embossing. Done stamping using Ranger Black Archival ink. Diecut butterfly , few pearls, florishes diecut and Glittered Alpha diecuts LOVE were added to get this overall effect.

Must thank Shilpa of Neon Diary for the wonderful kickstart about the mixed media, which she shared on Lulupu, which made me to make an attempt at this. And of course, special thanks to Pooja, Reusing with Quilling for generous sharing of the links for preparing DIY mists/sprays.

Being first time, i let my heart to work on more and just followed it!! All your comments and views are much appreciated.

Layered Emboss Resist

~ Sathya ~ Leave a comment
Wanted to share a CAS card again with a technique which happened to learn yesterday…Layered Emboss Resist.

Hope this lovely butterfly speaks all technique 🙂 Love this butterfly stamp set from IBS.
Started to stamp in wild honey on a White CS and stamped butterfly in Versamark and embossed with clear EP. And before which i stamped the sentiment in Rangers Black Archival ink.

Just distressed with rich cocoa momento ink around the butterfly emerge from the background. Just loved the way the stamped design peeping through the butterfly and so the sentiment too 🙂 Attached a scalloped bordered scrap from kraft CS on one edge and mounted on to white CS.
Hope you all like my amateurish attempts 🙂 Thanks all for stopping by and leaving lovely comments 🙂
