TILDA TREAT BAG

*Don't forget to enter my candy HERE***

Hi,
hope you are all doing great.Google is going to remove old blog interface totally from next month,sigh..i hate the new one,its so difficult to post pictures.Hmm,..well this may reduce our blogging frequency i guess,lets see how fast we get used to it:(.

Here is the treat bag set i finished today,this one is long due in my to-do list.I actually planned only to make a bag,then ended up with a matching box and a card also.I really don't know why,but till now i don't know how to make a ordinary paper bag,have seen the demo in television couple of times but some how i dint got my mind and surprisingly i couldn't found any tute in the internet for it so far.If any one knows,please give me the link.I have made this one as similar to box,with three sides.Made two pieces like that n attached it,hope it looks like a bag,lolz.

When ever i make gift sets,pink is the only color i can think:)(you can see my previous one HERE),and only pink color pattern papers are lots in almost all paper pads.I have used echo park yours truly papers,love the pink shades it has,i have completed all the pink papers in the pack,other colors are remaining untouched:)




The box..

Side view of the box...

I have made a small simple card to match the set,i never know simple tilda card looks so pretty,have to make more in future:)


The complete set,all will fit in the bag.

This is quite a lengthy card,measures 7 by 4,had some lots of spaces to embellish it to my heart content.I have painted the edges with white acrylic paints,n distressed it,that gives a perfect touch of shabbiness.

ALL DRESSES UP TAG

Hi people,
i am back with a tag today to share with you all.These days i am affected by a syndrome called lots of ideas-but no output(do you like the name;))syndrome.Its not like lost mojo,i do get lot of amazing ideas these days that if i put them all into use,i would create some most beautiful projects that i have ever done,but,..but... but........then when i sit down to work my mind goes blank,absolutely blank and i don't remember even a single thing i got before in my mind,strange huh?So finally i started to note down them all in my sketch book,so that at least i can used a few of them:)
since i am not crafting much,i am digging into all my craft stuffs these days,n i got to see lot of new things that have never been used.These stuffs are supposed to be the most important thing for me before i bought them,n now i absolutely forgot about them:((. Human mind is strange,when we don't have something that is supposed to be the most wanted thing for us in the world,and after getting it,its the least thing we want,haha.

Ok,onto the project now i have used my tim holtz alphabet mask(which i got in digging) to create the background.I have got lot local plastic handles which is used to mount stamps instead of blending tool,now i have one for each colors n distressing was like a cake walk ,as i don't have to change the sponge every time.I have tried masking long back with ink pads,but the result was not this god,n it stains the mask.Interestingly,the distress inks didn't stain the mask at all.Added lots of bits n pieces of things n love how it turned out:)

"FOR THE LOVE OF CRAFTING"CHALLENGE#5

Hello all,
challenge#5 is up n running now in my challenge blog "For the love of crafting",with the brand new design team on board.The theme for this month challenge is....

Spring colors+butterflies(more than one)

The prize pack is sponsored by shalini mittal of crafters corner,head over to the blog to know all the details n the amazing design team inspirations.

Here is my take on the challenge,i have tried a layered embellished card only with stamping for the first time.Its always quite difficult for me to make a card without any images.But still i enjoyed making this as this is something similar to my style.Before i realize that CAS is not my style i got too many stamps with me,especially PTI.Not that i cant make CAS cards,but i feel its a very dry subject,lolz.But there is no any rule to make only CAS cards with stamps right?....hmm i cant make out from the result whether i have succeed or not..what you all think about this card??hit or miss...??





Challenges entered:

C.R.A.F.T Challenges- Spring
Cupcake Craft -Spring is in the Air
Crating when we can challenges-things with wings
