October Inspiration "Cherish" for 2Crafty Chipboard

Mixed Media Vintage Canvas
"Cherish"

Hello there..
Back on 2Crafty Chipboard blog today with my october inspiration. I created a vintage style mixed media canvas and used some beautiful chipboard pieces from 2Crafty.


I created lots of layers on a small sized box canvas using different elements and incorporated the chippies therein. Flowers and other few metal elements I have used from Prima Marketing.
I chose corners and flourish designs of chippies for this project.




I started with scrap pieces of papers, cheese cloth and laces, followed by adding the chippies and flowers. I love to be asymmetric in my projects and in this one I kept the elements popping out on all four sides of the canvas. The box canvas gave my design an added dimension.
For all the chipboard pieces here, I have applied finnabair's wax in "white gold" after a layer of white gesso for the vintage look and dull finish on the project.
For the finishing touches, as always, I love adding art stones, micro beads and some glitter.

For the love of Autumn - A mini Album


Hello there..

Autumn is here with all its magic. Nature blends into the beautiful color palette and it is the time that inspires so much. I created a 6*6 album using "Botany" collection from Fabrica Decoru, that I had received as a GDT package last year. The package consisted of some gorgeous papers and die cuts.


The whole process was fun totally enjoyable, creating each page and adding those tiny details. I designed the cover with multiple shabby chic layers, using fabric, book pages, scrap pieces, chippies, die cuts and more. Nature has so much beauty and inspiration in every season, but autumn is my favourite as it inspires me more with all its gorgeous colours.
