what a wonderderful day -- birthday card

Hello and Good Morning. 
I dreamed of this project last night and started making first thing in 
the morning after kids . Took me almost two and a half hrs to finish .


  1. Started with gessoing my paper and then stencilled it with Tim Holtz clock stencil.
  2. Then lightly covered the paper with Copper Deco art paint , followed by teal paint, which i dabbed here and there and then wiped the excess .
  3. Stamped the project with prima stamp.
  4. added some mesh tape to give some more dimensions.
  5. I covered my gears with gesso and coloured them with copper and teal paint.
  6. Have used recycled hinge ( took it out from an old broken box), old chain from a jeans tag, and some old safety pins.

gift bag - quick photo tutorial

Hey
I am so excited to post my first photo tutorial.  I upcycled this solid blue gift bag.




 First I painted the bag with foam , dabbing to get some texture. Then added the chord to make twines.


 





then using a hard tooth brush, added some paint splatters in black , white and pink to give some more  dimensions.  Further added some more pink swirls using my pastels.    
                                                   Then added flowers, butterflies and leaves , punched lace , a thank you tag to finish the bag.

Challenge --


I have used die cut flowers .

Hope you like my first attempt to photo tutorial.Thanks for taking your time out.

Love -- canvas art

hello All,
I struggled with this canvas  a lot. I started with blue and yellow but somehow finally got very green jungle effect. Then toned down the colors with gesso , did some doodling here and there, and some red splatter . I think finally it looked fine. Please give your honest opinions.


Here are few closeups--

fly to your happy place



hey ,
I have it  been struggling with this Burlap canvas since yesterday.  Somehow was not happy with the result.but today morning , with some changes and additions, finally I am happy with the canvas.

The mood boards on offtherailsscrapbooking. and /berry71bleu. are inspiration for this canvas



Here is my take--

 

 
I have used the color palette from Off the rails , Eiffel tower, post card stamp, , birds , butterfly are all according to mood board on Berry71bleu.
