Altered Embroidery Hoop

Hello friends!
Today I would like to share my altered embroidery hoop with you. I have had this idea for a while and finally got to bring it to life!

I started doing "background" on raw cotton cloth with 2 coat of Finnabair Heavy white Gesso.

metal used on this project

2nd step, texture paste (clear crackle) on corner side with crafters workshop 6x6 "Flower Fency" stencil. After drying , i just drop the pearl paints (olive green, light blue & violet) with water on corner side. Center portion i added some sand texture paste (finnabair).

After all this, gluing metal charms, flowers , resin embellishments (prima product) on the hoop....and i did touch with gesso on top of all embellishments ,after drying all i used some dark shade lindy's spray for the finishing .....

Mini Love Album

Hello Dear Friends.

Today I have a Mini album to share with you. It's a 6"x6" MDF love style mini album with 6 inner pages. I used Graphic 45 8 X 8 Sweet Sentiments papers, to create album. This will go down as one of my all-time favorite paper collections

I applied the texture paste using the brick stencil and then colored it with a brush.

I Love the challenge to play along

Hello there:)
I am so happy to show you this layout I made for my friend's daughter Aarushi's 1 year celebration.

I have made this layout using G45's Botanical Tea collection.....this paper is amazing!! I totally love it! (All G45 products) I was skeptical on whether or not I could make a "baby" layout with it, but it proved to be very versatile and I think it turned out just fine!!

I used a gorgeous piece of Dusty attic chipboard, this flowers fit just perfectly with my fussy cut

Memories

Hello Everyone

The new challenge for Scrap Around the World was posted, and today I had some time to complete the challenge. :)I love this mood board because it is all about old memories,

I started off with a cream background, and the paper edges were inked with distress walnut stain and added the same ink with stencil. I splatter paints on the paper with some Lindy's Stamp Gang mists. Once it was dry I randomly stamped the page with a script stamp and archival ink jet black.

Here are some close ups of my layout.

Hope you like my project.

Happy Moments

This will go down as one of my all-time favorite paper collections. Graphic 45 paper pads, stole my heart. Here i used 8 x 8 French Country paper pad.

Fussy cutting, popping up,chipboard die cuts, pearl stickers added to my layout. A perfect little chicken and burlap sheet fit right into the theme. The sun flowers were fussy cut and layered.

I like to use chipboard to back my layering rather than using pop-ups. The chipboard gives the layering more body. Used Bobunny brick stambs as background design. The paper edges were inked with Ranger's vintage Distress Ink.

Hope you like my layout

Thank you
