Mini Canvas in PINK!

Hello crafty fellows!

I hope you are enjoying your winter holidays! Today I am posting a mini canvas that was presented as Christmas gift. The lady wanted something colorful with an name initial on it and this is what I ended up with.

I have used PCW word art file in here. You can find the link HERE. The set comes with 4 different texts. I just love the chalky effect of it!

First of all, I painted the mini canvas using Distress Paint in 'Picked Raspberry' then I stamped the canvas using one of the Tim Holtz Anonymous Stamp. Then added few flowers, name initial and PCW word art.

I hope you like today's post & have an amazing new year.

Configuration Box

Hello Crafty People!

I hope you're doing fab! I am here with a Configuration Book Shadow Box. It's a Tim Holtz Configuration Box which is about 6 x 9 x 1.25 inches and has 6 compartments.

So, firstly I covered the entire box using MME Pretty Things 6x6" cardstock. I adore this paper pad. It's so vintage and floraly. I simply can't get over these papers.

The paper was 6x6" so I overlapped two sheets and added a lace over it. Lace has been distressed by Walnut Stain Paint. Flowers are randomly picked from Prima and Recollection flowers packs.

Here comes my favorite part - THE INSIDE. Again, on the left I have overlapped two sheets covered the joined with the distressed lace. The sides of the box and edges of every cut out sheet is also distressed by the same paint.

I didn't cover it much, as the papers were itself gorgeous. So, just added few flowers and metal embellishments here and there.

I have used PCW word art file in there. You can find the link HERE. The set comes with 4 different texts. I just love this set because it almost goes with every project I make.

Framelits dies are by Sizzix. On the left compartment, hanging metal embellishment is by Prima. I love the little crown at the bottom. On the right, I went with the mini jar with silver glitter and text in it.

I hope you like today's post! See you next time!

Configuration Box

Hello to November!

It's been so so long since I have last posted! Orders and studies have been keeping me busy. There are so many projects to be posted!!! I wish there were a bit more than 24 hours a day. Sigh! 

Anyway, I did this Configuration Box which is by Tim Holtz recently. This was my first time doing it and I had fun making it. Lets get into the details!

First of all, I painted the edges from inside out by Distress Paint 'Black Soot'. Now for the front I covered it with DCWV 'Old World Stack' paper. It was more like a brighter blue but I distressed with grey shade (forgot the color name!) and edges by Black Soot. Stamps are by Stampers Anonymous and flowers used in here are mixed few by Recollection, Prima and others are from a local store. For butterflies, I have used a Sizzix die and later distressed them in various colors. 

I love the word art stamp! It went well with the theme. 

Forgot to mention earlier, banner is a die-cut by Sizzix. 

Box sides are covered by using a different paper from the same DCWV pad. Edges are distressed in Black Soot. 

Now comes the inside part! Left side has been covered with the distress paper and then a personalized note is added on it. Why waste the space? When we have got plenty!

On the right, a lot of emblishments have been used as you can see. Metal, florals, die-cuts .. Literally everything! 

That cute mini envelope is a Bigz die by Sizzix which has note in it. Metal embellishments are just random ones which them from a local store. && for that mini jar I just added some silver glitter and added a stamped name tag and glued the cork.

Laces have been distress painted and the top and the bottom lace is a black card stock which have punched by Martha Stewart edge punch. 

That is it! It took about 2 days to complete this project as I am a impatient crafter. Haha! Hope you like it!

Deep Blue Me Wooden Frame

And here comes the last post of the Personalized Photo Hangers. This one is in neutral tone. It can be perfect for anyone who likes light shades.

Now let's get into the details .. Shall we?

I have used Distress Paint on the frame. Flowers are from Recollections and die-cuts by Sizzix. There is a metal embellishment on the left corner just below Teal flower. It's by Tim Holtz.

Card stock is by DCWV Fresh Floral Stack. I love the pattern! Grey colored twine is used to put up the photo mat. 

I really hope you enjoyed the series! I will be back soon hopefully with another interesting post. Till next time!

Tiptoe Through the Tulips Wooden Frame

Today I am posting a darker shade of frame. I have painted it with Distress Paint in Aged Mahogany. I love this color! It's so bold and beautiful! I have paired it with lighter color embellishments mostly beige with grey and mustard yellow. Metal corner by Tim Holtz is in dull copper tone. 

Recollections flowers are used with few leafy Sizzix die-cuts. I am pretty much using it on every other project of mine.

I hope you like today's personalized frame. Tomorrow there would be a new one and sadly that would be the last post of the Personalized Photo Hangers series.

I look forward to hearing from you back. See you tomorrow!

Fuchsia Floret Wooden Frame

Hello again!

I am trilled to share this project with you all. This was the very first altered frame I did. I had this wooden frame since 5 or more years and its texture was getting darker and it started to look unclean. So, one day I thought why not I alter it and this is what I came out with.

Let's go through the products what I have used in here..

Firstly, I covered the entire frame with Distress Paint. I used Antique Linen in here to give a neutral look. Then I embellished it with various flowers. Few are from Prima Marketing and Recollections and rest I bought from a random store. Die-cuts are by Sizzix and metal corner is by Tim Holtz. 

Secondly. instead of adding a plain paper. I took a pattern paper from DCWV Old World Stack and attached a twine in a twisted manner. Next I took a mini clip distressed it with the same paint to match it with the frame. 

Lastly, I added a Photo Mat and a PCW Chalkboard Word Art. 

This way you can frame your favorite photos in style and make them last a lifetime.

I hope you enjoyed my post! See you next time!

By The Yellow Sand Wooden Frame

Howdy Folks!

Hope you all are well! It's been a bit late since I last posted. I have been so busy with my projects that I wasn't able to post regularly. Anyway, I thought of running a series on Altered Frames. Each day for about 4 days I would be posting a new Altered Frame. However, I already have posted one on 5th. You can check out that here. 

At first, I distressed the complete frame by Distress Paint. Here I have used 'Tumbled Glass'. Followed with some embellishments by Recollections, Prima Marketing and Tim Holtz. Those shiny leaves are made of plastic. It somewhat gives a aluminum finish. A little while back I purchased these from a sewing store in Riyadh. I was surprised to see the variety  they had. So I went on and purchased in various colors and shapes. 

Then I took a pattern paper from DCWV Fresh Floral Stack and secured the twine. 

In the end I added a mini clip and a photo mat.

Do let me know how did you like it!

Framed Memories Wooden Frame

Hello October!

My post was getting delayed due to severe work load. I am literally swamped with work!

SO-OOO! Here comes my newest made product - Personalized Photo Hanger! I made 5 of these! LOL! No kidding! I simply loved the idea! Rather than putting up a picture in a simple wooden frame why not do it with style. 

Here is a close-up of the flowers. They are by Michaels and Recollections. 

Looking forward for your feedback!

Here comes another DT Project for Scribbles Designs. It's a 'good luck' card. I have used a 'Fresh Floral Stack' by DCWV. I adore this paper pad! It comes in 12x12" and has 180 sheets. Another important thing that it's a pretty thin paper.

Word Art is of course by SD. You can get the file HERE.

For bringing out the cute factor, I have added a lime green twine.

Indigo Ecstasy Mini Album

Howdy Folks!

It's almost the end of September! I hope it went well for all. 

Today I am posting a fun mini album cover I did few days ago. It was fun making this and due to shortage of time I wasn't able to click inside pictures. It was an urgent order! It was a vintage looking album. I used DCWV 'Old World Stack' paper pad for this. Btw it's my second buy! I am totally in love with the paper. It's so beautiful!

Dies used are by Sizzix, of course! Perks of being a distributor! I end up buying a lot of dies. Sigh!

On 30th I would be posting again for PCW. Just giving you heads up! Don't miss out the post!

Pastel & Grey Blooms Altered Box

Hello!

Hope you all are doing fab! I come with another altered box. This time I have used pastel blue with grey and I liked how it turned out. 

Firstly I covered the whole box with 'Pewter' Distress Paint and covered the cover with DCWV 'Old World Stack' paper. Then I embellished it using Sizzix dies and few flowers. Silver rose is from Recollections and other two I got from a local store in Riyadh. 

They're perfect for gifting and storing little items! Let me know what you think of it.

Brightest Hue Altered Box

Here's another altered box which I did recently! I have covered lid with a 'Old World Stack' DCWV cardstock and distressed and stenciled the rest of the box.

I have put an oval frame in creamy color. I have recently purchased this framelit set and I have been using on every other project I have been making nowadays. OBSESSED! Next I have arranged few silver leave stems and dull gold butterfly die-cuts and paper flowers on to the lid. I felt something was missing so added a rusty looking vintage key. I loved how it completed the whole thing!

Embellishments are by Tim Holtz and Recollection and die-cuts of leave stems and butterfly are of course by Sizzix.  

Till next time! 

Floral Friendship Card

Evening to all!

I made this card last year, way back in November. I have used a vintage cardstock. It's by DCWV. I absolutely love the entire paper pad! This one consist of some great colors.

Btw it was the very first paper pad I had ever bought in my entire life.

List of all the supplies used is below! 

DCWV Old World Stack (12x12", 48 sheets)
Sizzix Sizzlits Die Set 3PK - Decorative Label Set #4
Recollection Floral Embellishments 
Paper Doily in White (soaked in Coffee to get a vintage look)
Brownish-Grey Lace Random Gold Beads

Leaves are cut outs of 2-color cardstock. I ordered a bunch of these from Ebay. They had no name on it (Sorry about that!). They are about 6x6". Perfect to work with smaller sized cards.

I hope you all like it!
