Sassy Studios Indian honey

Image
Hi I used one of the digital images of Sassy Studios which i won in Tuesday Alchemy challenge  . This is my first time using of a digital image.I used circle for sentiment, triangle for banner which is made with washi tape, square  for roses and rectangle for the image.Roses are the punched flowers. I coloured the image first with water colour pencils and found they were very light so done with sketches. You can find some spots beside the image, those are glitter , i applied and spread it along the picture and that doesn't look good in the photograph. Sentiment is a freebie from here  . I liked the image so so much but i need to learn how to colour the images so beautifully like many good crafters. Hope you like it. Indian Honey Submitting to Beyond Grey Challenges thanks Kavitha

This used to be a Chocolate Box

Image
Hi all This is a chocolate box and i changed it to a box where i can store all my quilled cards. Quilled cards occupies space and will not fit properly in an envelope. So wanted to do something from long time. As you can see in the first original box there is a transparent layer which i kept as it is so that the cards or any photo can be seen from outside. I have used only citrus colours here. Entering to http://itsybitsyindia.blogspot.in/2013/03/the-first-annual-itsybitsy-craft-awards.html Lulupu challenge  4  ''This used to be ...

Stamped and Quilled

Image
Hi all,  I have a mini butterfly stamp which i used for the first time. Submitting to Paper Pretty Studio september challenge, maximize your stamp. I stamped the butterfly and coloured it. I thought that quilling needs lot of patience but today i understood that using stamps and colouring requires lot of attention , even a single mistake will be seen so clearly with stamps.  It took me some time to make this pattern as these are with rubber stamps. sentiment is a printout. This is the other card i made, butterflies flying in  the shape of butterfly. Hope you like it submitting to Pretty Paper Studio -- Maximize your stamp MIM Crafty cardmakers -- winged things
