ARTplorations Stencil Blog Hop - Day1!

Heyyaa All!

 STAMPlorations is having The Stencil Hop! 

Are you enjoying hopping along the wonderful creations by the team? :)

Check out what I made!

I sponged the background using Distress ink - Vintage Photo( My new buy), Spiced Marmalade and Mustard Seed.

Sponging 

I used the stencil- ARTplorations-Shutters stencil , sprintz it with water and pressed over the sponged card. Distress ink blends really well with water.

Ghosting technique

The stamp is from STAMPlorations- Dino Things from Big Grins! :)

Check out what the rest of the team made! You'll find links to all our projects here.

Happy Hopping! :)

Watercolor Wreath!

Hey Super Ladies! :)

I have been on to painting lately( I have promised myself to paint more)! As you know, I haven't posted for a long time on my Art Blog, I thought why not use watercolor medium and do two of my favorite things- art and craft!

My Card-

I have handdrawn the floral wreath. The stamp set is from Hampton Art-Lovely stencil and stamp set.

Before ending, I want to share a thing with you all!

Ladies, do you remember this Calendar that I had made last year in Jan? I hope so!

My hubby was bored of the background and he asked me if he could alter it! That was a surprise to me as he doesn't craft or is never anywhere near crafting! ;)

 He took up this challenge for himself and the calendar background which was like this----

Was made to this! He made the base red and adhered a pattern paper in the background for the new look. He also extended the base so that my altered bottle could accommodate! 

I gladly took the pic of my new altered Calendar background that he made! I am loving it !! What do you think? :)

Hope you had fun stopping by!

Always love what you wanna say!

I have made cards using both sketch and theme!
Here is my first card-

For the torn  background, I used distress ink for sponging. Later, I used ARTplorations stencil- Tribal Swirls over it. Sprinkled water drops are acrylic color. I also used stamp Dee's Artsy Impressions- Balloons and Banners.

I didn't let go the torn part. I used it up for making another card.

Craft for the Craic April!

Heyyaaa All!!

 Guys, don't you think time's flying very fast? Jan-Feb-March- where does the time go?!

This month we have "Anything Goes except a card" on Craft for the craic April Challenge! :)

I finally broke my jinx( of not painting) and started on mixed media canvas. 

I have used acrylic paints for the background of a 6*6 canvas cloth.( I have a 5m roll of canvas and I am glad I am putting it to use again!) The stamps used are from Bo Bunny- it is written and STAMPlorations-small birds! The alphabet stamp is from Kaisercraft. :)
Hope you liked my canvas?
