Festive card with embroidery stitching!

Hello everyone!

Happy Saturday!

I created a festive stitched dimensional card this time with an autumn colors feel on it!


I started by die cut a decorative accent in white CS. And stitched with red embroidery thread as shown below. This die is perfect for making cards, decor and more.


2nd step, again stitched with red embroidery thread for more decorative design.

Then I stitched more with a peach coloured embroidery thread. I added some rhinestones to it. I added some foam tape to the back of my scalloped red circle and matted it on a white circle.

For my background panel, I die cut the same decorative accents and flip-up some of the parts out of it as shown in the below pic. Adhered a red stripe with a festive saying on it which is heat embossed.

Can you see the sparkles on the sentiment, its impact is more beautiful in real.

Now on a white basic panel added a shimmering sheet in peach color and adhered my top panel on it. As a finishing touch, I added some rhinestones too as an embellishment for some sparkle on it.



Hope you all enjoyed the process!

Happy crafting!

Birthday wishes in pink!

Hello friends!

Happy Friday!

I came up with a pink theme card for the Birthday celebration! Tried to be CAS here!

I used a beautiful stencil from Uniko adding three various shades of pink on a dotted rectangle panel.


I love the size of this beautiful bloom.  


I like the idea in my head of layering in the centre of the card, added dimensions to my card with a spotlight of the flower.
Die-cut a fern branch in the snippets of black and baby pink Cs and adhered only the leaved part on the black one.


Popped up the vase with a fern stem on the centre panel.


The sentiment is also from another Uniko stamp set and added the whole panel to the black card base.

An inside look:


I think the vase really added interest to the background, what do you think?

Happy crafting!

Unforgettable Moments Mixed media home decor hearts

 Hello friends!

Happy Wednesday!

Created some MDF plaques to decor the home wall with my own handmade art in mixed media style.


It's very difficult to take the pic with all 3 pieces together in one frame, I tried my best!





First of all, I started recycling my empty masking tape rolls. Gave them a coat of chalk paints and then added washi tapes. Adjusted the boy and girl toys by glue gun.


Now Applying a coat of gesso and all 3 heart-shaped plaques. Then gave a coat of snow chalk paint to all. Added decoupage napkins pieces to each one.
Added textures using stencils and texture paste to each one.




Now added gold alcohol splash inks to all and somewhere applies copper wax to the textures for more dimension as shown in below pics.




Now added those tape rolls to two of the hearts for boy and girl, Embellished all three using handmade flowers, embellishments and laces.
