Teachers day card

Hi..
Happy Teachers Day everyone!
Me and my daughter Vibha, created few cards for her school teachers.
Out of that one card i created using the theme Florals and Textures for the craftyscrappers blog.
I have used flower stamps from crafyscrappers and created a background of off white lace, in which i have used spray paints and gold and silver dots to add sparkles.




Hope u all liked it. 

Thank u

Gatefold Album - Entry 1 for Itsybitsy Challenge 13

Hi friends...
today i am happy to share my latest work on Mini albums - Gatefold Album.
Based on the tutorial Corenescreation , i have created this album .

Papers are from ItsyBitsy's Little Birdie 'Cottage Lace ' Paper collection.
Flower embellishments are from Little Birdie brand.
The inside of the album are done without any embellishments ,as i felt the pattern papers were enough to add beauty to the same.









1st entry for the  challenge -

Handmade flowers with Papers bought from ItsyBitsy

Hello there..

Today i would like to share my long time pending post about handmade flowers with different papers bought from ItsyBitsy store.
I have been making flowers quite some time. My main challenge is always to get the right sheet of paper to get the right outcome.
Few days back,thought of trying papers from the ItsyBitsy store.
Here is the store link https://www.itsybitsy.in/ 

Flower made using Gold tissue paper of size approx.1 ft.
(My long time desire to make a gold flower! )
Here is the link to purchase : https://www.itsybitsy.in/products/papercraft-papers--card-stocks-papers/itsy-bitsy/premium-tissue-paper-gold/pid-12914516.aspx 




These flowers are made using Deckledge  Papers from the store.
I loved making flowers from these.  Dies are used to cut the flower shape and misted with water , so that they become flexible and  the petals are twisted and shaped very easily.
( Had purchased only Raisin and Tanquil Blue as a trail . Now time to grab all the colours availble ;) )

Here is the link to purchase : https://www.itsybitsy.in/products/papercraft-papers--card-stocks-papers/itsy-bitsy/deckledge-paper-raisin/pid-12914514.aspx




These flowers are made using Thick Vellum sheets. 
I really liked the outcome. 

Link to purchase : 


Hope this post was helpful.
