Altered box with 2Crafty chippies

Hello friends!

I have this box that I altered for 2Crafty chipboard as a part of my May DT inspiration. 

It was a mobile box and I decided to alter it to make my own trinket box. :)

I really loved the outcome and I will encourage you to try this as well.

 I love recycling stuff and putting them to better use.

And just to let you know ..if you wondering what that gorgeous blue colour is..its no paint..its LSG spray! 

Have a look

Some close ups-

I painted my chippies in shades of gold,plum,blue etc and then outlined them using 

white gel pen. I also stamped on them using archival ink.

Lots of art ingredients used here as well...microbeads, gold glitter, fine glitter etc.

The background has been made using stencil,threads,laces etc.

I have used the following 2Crafty chippies -

Easy Mixed media card with tutorial!

I have some easy mixed media cards to share with you all. 

Its pretty easy to execute these and so I thought its worth a share since mixed media can be so overwhelming at times!

Not too much embellishing and really fun to make. 

Have a look!

Tutorial

Step 1-

Take the desired stencil and spray through it on your cardstock in any two colours. Gently lift the stencil

Step 2-

 Now reverse the stencil and press on another cardstock for the negative impression of the stencil

Step 3-

You will end up with two patterns like so. 

Add the contrasting layer to the back of these cardstocks.

Step 4-

 On any one of the prepared background spray gently in the centre and spread the mist.

Step 5- 

Heat dry both cardstocks. Take the second stencil you want to use and apply modelling paste or Prima heavy white gesso through it. Prima gesso has heavy consistency and you may use it if careful enough.

Step 6-

 Heat dry again using the rangers heat it tool. Now use double sided  foam tape on the back side and adhere these to your card blanks,

Step 7-

 Embellish these cards as you desire . Also add the sentiment to it.

Step 8- 

Splatter with gesso and mist. 

You are done!

Mixed media tags with a tutorial

 Hello friends!

 I have started off again with blogging regularly so you are going to see me here often :) 

Today I have two mixed media tags to show you all I created this as the DT project for Crafters corner blog. 

I  have also shared a pictorial tutorial there so please hop over and leave a comment if you like it. 

Here are a few pics.. 

 My Lindys sprays always come in handy with any mixed media project. God! I love them sooo much :)

 Love those Prima embellishments <3

Here is a pictorial tutorial  for the same-

Step1:

 I used some scrap cardstock paper that I had randomly misted/sprayed using Lindys stamp gang sprays. I had a big sheet that was spoiled as I spilled a lot of my mist of it.Then it became my testing sheet for mists and finally I decided to make it my base for tags. 

 Isn't that a great way to reuse what you always thought as scrap? I simply loved using this as my base. More so as I could make use of something that was totally a waste. You can use almost any colours of sprays you wish to.

I cut this sheet into 4 rectangular tag shapes using my We R memory Keepers trim and score board. This is a trimmer cum score board in one and is a good buy if you are looking for something affordable and compact as it it is a two in one at the cost of one equipment and is fold-able at the same time thus saving storage space.

Step 2:

 I distressed the edges of the tags using the Prima comfort craft distressing tool. I just love using this tool for giving distressed edges to my paper. This is so versatile you will sure fall in love with this tool. It is by far my most favourite purchase of all times in tools!

 Step 3:

I stacked the smaller tag shape on the lager one and did this with both the sets . One of them I glued down with white glue easily available in the market. You may use the Aleene's tacky glue which have really great reviews.  and the second one I used the double sided foam tape. It is one of the best ways to give dimension.

Step 4:

I did some stamping on the tags using some black archival ink and Kaisercraft dictionary meanings stamp.

Step 5:

Added some modelling/texture paste with Crafters workshop microbial stencil and spatula.

 Step 6:

 Heat dry with Rangers heat it tool. 

Step 7:

Added some mist on the stencilled area again . I chose Sweet violet purple teal starburst spray from Lindy's stamp gang. Any colour spray can be used here.

Step 8:

I looked at how I wanted my embellishments to go. 

Step 9:

 Finally start adhering the embellishments. I have used quite a few Prima embellishments and flowers you see here.

Prima wood embellishments- Leaves and mushrooms

Prima Typo bulbs 

Prima small typo bulbs

Prima bird houses

Mulberry flowers- Poppy flower

                            Micro roses

                         Rose buds

                             Curved roses

 Step 10:

 Fussy cut some gorgeous butterflies from the Pion design paper- Paris flea market- Postcards using my Tonic scissors. Another of my HOT FAVOURITE tools! 

I then adhered them on the tag using white glue.

Step 11:

Once my butterflies where in place I applied some diamond dust and

  Prima art ingredient- Granite Mica flakes randomly to give some interest to the composition. Also added a few rhinestones here and there.

Step 12:

 I punched a hole on the top centre portion of the tag using the We r memory keepers crop a dile punch and misted some seam binding ribbon using the Lindy's sparys using the Yellow Rose of Texas and Hottie patoite Hot pink starburst spray and Mowed lawn distress ink.

Next was just pulling the ribbon through the punched hole and tying the knot.
