Love: Layout

Hello Friends,

Today I'm so happy to share another Layout.

Here I used Light Pink, Red and White mostly to keep it minimum. It was not deliberate and I really wanted to make it heavy. But I like the way it came out. I hope u like it too.

The size of the LO is 8"*10"

I glued the upper layer on the background striped Paper and created the layered photo mat. Crumpled the upper background paper from sides and distressed it.

Stamped the LO and arranged the embellishments- Used a doily, hand cut the roses, Stamped a sentiment "Love" and added the hand cut pink and red hearts.

Supplies:

Paper pack from Papericious

Penny Black Stitches Stamp

Brushed Alphabet Stamp set from Mudra Stamps

Sugar Spun Distress Ink

Black Soot Distress Ink

Foam Tape

Tacky tape

Explosion Box # 3

Hello Friends...

Today I'm sharing another explosion box.

These are fun to make and there is so much scope for alteration every time you make one. I have made a couple of these and you can find them here and here.

This one I made for my brother on the special occasion of Rakhsabandahan. I kept it simple as he doesn't like much layering and bling. So this has just one layer and all the sides open up as u take off the lid. Inside I have kept a box for the rakhi n gift. 

This is how it looks...

As u can see I have decorated the outer layer of the box with texture paste and the stencil used here is flourish from Tim Holtz ( the same I used for my last two projects). I just love this stencil. Loved how it came out on this beautiful paper. It is the home made texture paste.

The Lid

I layered the lid with two different patterned papers from the same paper pack and made one blank tag on which I placed this rose. The other tag is a printed one, which I colored a bit.

Some inside views now...

I used some emotions and tags to decorate the inside of the box. The lid of the inner box was layered with doily, mdf cutout, a stamped tag and a similar Rose.

Supplies:

1 sheet of 12"*12"white plain card stock

2 different sheets of 12"*12" patterned paper from Violet script Paper pack from Papericious

Stamp from Penny black

3d tag

printed emotions

Glue 

double sided tape

Tacky tape

n the embellishments

I am not sharing a tutorial here as a lot of tutorial are already available online.

National Flag

Good Morning Friends...

Today I am here to share a work which is really close to my heart.

On August 15, 1947, India woke up to freedom. Decades have passed since, we continue to celebrate this day when we became a free and sovereign nation. 

I am extremely proud to be an Indian because I was born here. India is a vibrant country where you will find innumerable differences co-existing. Its myriad cultures has been an amalgamation of various civilizations. I love India and I have no reasons for it. It's just a feeling and every time I see the national flag I admire it, every time i hear the national anthem i get up naturally. 

I am extremely delighted that I got a chance to make something on India and I have never done anything patriotic before. This is such a beautiful concept this time at  IQCG.

I have quilled an outline of our National Flag.

Take a look...

I took this wallpaper design from google as an inspiration to quill on.

I hand drawn the outline and colored the required spaces with acrylic colors. Then I glued the 3 mm quilling strips on the outlines and some to the insides also.

It was really painful for my weak eyes to make those tiny patches... but i really loved the outcome.

Thanks for visiting. Please leave a comment if you like / dislike my work.

Stencil Love

Good Morning Friends.
I'm back today with another project for Indian Quilling Challenge. It's been an awesome experience this time to work with so many different things together.
This month's theme is "Stencil It".

Firstly I made a layout.I used "Violet Script" paper from Papericious here for the background. Both the papers are from the same paperpack with different scripting.  I used texture paste here instead of ink. I made texture paste at home. This I made last when I was making a mural. If I make another I'll surely share the procedure here. The texture paste was white initially. I mixed it with torquise blue acrylic paint from Favicryl for the desired color. Here also I used the same stencil.
So check it out here...

The doilies were colored with distress ink (Tumbled grass and dusty concord). The background papers are also distressed at the edges. The picture was layered with papers from Enogreetings and the tag on the left hand side is also from the same paperpack. FInally I decorated with some mdf cutouts and kept them in their natural color to go with the Tag. Finally I added a metal Brad, 5 quilled butterflies and some quilled flowers to finish the look.

Next, I made a card with the use of Distress Ink (Crushed olive) and Tim Holtz( Flourish) stencil. I decorated it with lace, pearls, diecut, doily and quilling Flower and a 3d tag.
Take a look ...

Scrapbook Layout "Back To Childhood"

Hello Again...
Today I have come up with my first ever scrapbook layout which is also my DT project for this month at Indian Quilling Challenge. This month's theme is "Childhood"

This Layout can also be used as a wall frame to showcase this sweetest phase by adding ur cute baby pictures and reliving those moments again.

Childhood is the most cherished part of our lives and as I wish to relive those moments, Here I used some beautiful patterned papers to match with the theme, few quilled flowers n leaves, butterfly stickers, banners, fairy wand and some stars coming out of it, stones and tags.

Take a look...

This is a 12"*12" layout. The patterned paper used here are by Enogreetings. The white and cream quilled flowers are made out of  3mm strips. The butterfly stickers are 3d stickers. The Fairy wand is a charm and I hand cut the starts from a sheet. The tags "memories' and "stories" are also from a patterned paper cutting. Gave outline shading to these with Distress Ink. Banner is also hand cut and attached to a string.

Summer Canvas

Hello All...
Days are getting hotter and @IQCG we are welcoming the month of May with lots of summer colors, textures and Quilling
The theme of the month at Indian Quilling Challange Blog is "Hello to Summer..."

Here's my DT post...

I painted a canvas of 6"*6" first. Used tissue papers to give the effect of sand.
I wanted to quill the whole sea but later only stuck to the outlines.
pasted some sea shells here n there to give it a beach effect.
Made it in a hurry so could not elaborate it the way I thought initially.
But I liked the sand effect.

Altered Box

Hello Friends...
Today I'm sharing an altered sweet box which is a cardboard box using some quilling flowers and pattern papers.

I have made this as a DT inspiration for Indian Quilling Challenge # 24 Recycle or Upcycle Projects with Quilling in it.

So, here's an angled snap of the picture where u can see the inside a bit also.

Used the same patterned paper for the inside and all sides of the box.

Here is a small Tutorial for this Box...

Materials:

A Cardboard Box

Some patterned Papers

Acrylic Paint

Double sided Foam Tape

Lace

3 mm Quilling Strips for Flowers

Tags

Doily

Mod podge

Brad

Pearls

 As the cover is very beautiful, at first I wanted to keep the cover design intact, but I have two more boxes with the same design...so I altered it.

I colored this box with black acrylic paint from all sides. kept it for drying for a day.

Then I measured and cut pattern paper according to all sides and top and inside of the box and covered it.

 

I used mod podge to stick the paper. Also applied a layer of modpodge after all sticking is done. Then I added a layer of patterned paper on the top cover.I used double sided foam tape to stick this layer as I wanted some height.  Then I cut a doily into half and pasted it as per the design I wanted. I glued some lace on the lower part. Cut out the tag from the same Paper pack.Foam tape is used to stick the tags here also. I used a brad on the strip of paper that I attached on the lace.

And completed the look with two Quilled flowers. Here I used 3mm strips to make the flowers.

Decorated the empty space with some pearls.. And here's the finished project..

Hope you like the project.

Quilling In Pink, IQCG Challenge No.23

Hello friends.

This is my first DT post for Indian Quilling Challenge. I am very excited to work with the talented DT girls here. This  is my first experience and I hope this journey will be pretty exciting.

This month the theme is "Quilling In Pink".

As this is the Valentines month, with this pink theme I've made a card with Pink Hearts.

I have used two shades of 3mm pink color quilling strips. Pink handmade paper is used to make the base of small heart pieces. I have also added white and cream color pearls to add a bling to it. And a tag with "You & Me" written on it completes the card. 

Let me show you what I created...

This is the Final Card
