Dragon ~ Steampunk Blog Hop

Hello Friends,

Today I'm participating in a blog Hop. We have created some exciting projects and youTube videos for you all and we have some Fabulous Sponsors giving some prizes also to our winners. Please read till the end if you would like to win some prizes...

 

I created this steampunk Dragon from Scratch. I drew a design on paper and then traced the same on chipboard piece and cut out pieces. joined them to make this giant. 

I drew the figure on a paper and transferred on to a piece of chipboard. Then I cut the chipboard as per my requirement and joined together and layered.

I used Chipboards, clay, Pearl drops, Metal embellishments and moulds to make the layers.

The background was build up and coloured using the waxes.

Once my dragon was ready I layered it with a coat of black gesso and once it is dried colored it with rust paste and metallique waxes.  I embellished it with glass nuggets and finished the look.

Hope you like my project.

Layout - Silence is the Answer

Hello Friends
This month at Mixed Media Academy we are celebrating SILENCE.
The challenge is to use a BLACK & WHITE photo on your project and get inspired by the colours of the moodboards.
I created a Layout inspired by the challenge...

Sometimes life can be really tough. At that point, you want to stay alone and search for answers. When you are silent, you can see and feel much more than when you speak...
For me, you can discover a lot of things in silence, it has all the answers. So you need to spend sometime in silence...
Here's my Layout of Self discovery in silence...

Here is our March Moodboard...

This month Little Birdie Crafts is giving our winner prize.

Participate in the challenge to win

Shadow Box Layout for Mixed Media Academy

Hello Friends

Yesterday was my Birthday and this month we are celebrating our first Birthday at Mixed Media Academy Challenge. So it's a double celebration for me.
Our theme this month was to create something based on the CELEBRATION and Anything Goes
You can create something inspired by the theme, or if you are celebrating a festival or celebrating love or celebrating your life and yourself...
I love to celebrate my life and I enjoy my Birthday and we also celebrate Valentine's Day this month. I am a full on romantic person and I love to make gifts for my Husband and for V Day and for myself on my Birthday.
The mood board at MMA is very sparkly and I simply loved the colours so I created a shadow box layout Celebrating Life and Love...

I made this Shadow box from a 12*12 white cardstock and created some texture using flourish stencil and texture paste on the borders and on the layout.  The base paper is from Heartfelt Creations and all background layers are made from the same paper pack.I used a lot of fussy cutting elements from Mintay and Flowers from our sponsor this month Crafters Emporio. 

I also used a doily, laces, sequins, art stones, chipboards, Clear and white gesso here.

Some more  close ups of the project...
