It's Time to Fly - Canvas Steampunk Layout


Hello Crafty Friends,

Delighted to share my project for the amazing Steampunk Bloghop hosted by Cathy Frailey. There are 36 fabulous artists from all around the globe. 


I have created a Steampunk Canvas Layout (8" X 10") titled "It's Time to Fly". Hope you like it!

I tore the canvas from the center and rolled to both the sides. Used modelling paste and crackle paste for the textures on the sides of the canvas.   


Have used chipboards from Creative Embellishments and Expressions Craft, Acrylic Paints and Waxes from Finnabair. 


For the center background used the Parket floor technique by Antonis.

Mixed Media Canvas Layout

Hello Friends,

Sharing a canvas layout, my DT project for Mixed Media Academy.


Dance to your own rhythm! It's all about being authentic in how and who you are; not comparing or comprising to others.
And when you dance to your own rhythm, life taps its toes to your beat!

For this layout have used chipboards from Expressionscraft_studio and Creativeembellishments & Chip Off the Old Black Embossing powder n Magical Cuckoo Clock Cardinal Shaker from Lindys.

Hope you like it:)

Altered Kite - Mixed Media Layout

Hello!

Sharing a kite shaped wedding layout. This is my DT project for Splashymix Challenge.


I selected a kite shape for base; for which I used water color paper. Created a
delicate and fresh collage with soft pastel colors and a beautiful bride n groom photo for focal pic. Wanted to depict a new hope, new happiness...a new beginning!



Have used:
Gorgeous rice papers @itdcollection.
Acrylic paints @Finnabair_studio "Sparks Fairy Wings" "Opal Magic Green Gold" "Opal Magic Coral Green"
Flowers @primamarketinginc Fruit Paradise collection.
Lovely die cuts @craft_secrets_scrap.
Pretty chipboard @expressionscraft_studio.

Few close up pics:








Entering this project for few challenges.

1. More Than Words Challenge:



Love this main challenge for May "HELLO to DOORS & WINDOWS" for the word inspiration "Hello" I have used quote "Hello to new beginnings!" as the layout shows he newly wedded couple saying hello to their new journey. For the creative challenge - Doors & Windows, I have used die cuts and chipboards of Windows and Doors around the focal image.
