'Cherish' scrapbooking layout using Pion Design & 2crafty chipboard

Hello friends,

My layout today was created last month for the CSI Case File: 255 which was sponsored by 2crafty chipboard. Purple is hardly my go to colour, but I decided to try something different and for this used the absolutely stunning Pion Design pattern paper collection - Where the roses grow. 

I've layered many different chipboard pieces in between layers of pattern paper.  All the chipboard pieces were first coated with white gesso and then painted over with Colourarte Twinkling H2Os & Vivid Ultra Metallics. All supplies have been listed at the end of this post.

For the mini cluster on the left, half a piece of the Formal Flourish 3 has been tucked underneath the light woodgrain paper. Over it is a cluster of flowers along with a piece of Leafy Twig Branches. There are also many fussy cut elements amongst the embellishments.

This close-up reminds me of how far Ive come with using flowers on my layout. There was a time when I struggled to even find place for one & this layout has 10!!!

Thank you for stopping by & leaving me some love. 

Happy crafting,

Kripa

(Video Tutorial) : Mixed media Art Journal using 2crafty chipboard

'What if I fail? But, Oh Darling, What if you Fly?'

Hello friends,

Its been a while since I posted here on my blog. 

Ive mostly been on Instagram & YouTube these past few months.

Here is the video tutorial for this project.

Earlier this month, I came across this moodboard at 7dots studio and was wanted to use these beautiful colours on a project. A couple of days after that, my friend and I had a conversation about how intuitive Mother Nature is and if only we could also reconnect with our intuition the same way. These were my thoughts when I set about creating this art journal page.

To see a list of 2crafty chipboard, 7dots studio and Colourarte products used,

I hope you enjoy the video.

Thank you for stopping by.
Creative hugs,
Kripa

Art Journal - Intuitive painting

Hi friends,

I love art journaling... it offers so much freedom without any expectations, guidelines, just painting the way you feel like. I did start with the colour palette from Words & Paintery. My art journal is my safe place, where I pour out my feelings, question the direction of my life and record a lot of self talk.

Check out the other inspiring projects by the Words & Paintery DT here.

( VIDEO Tutorial) : Scrapbooking on Canvas using 2craftychipboard & Prima Marketing

Hi friends,

Have you seen the moodboard at More than Words this month? 

It was instant inspiration for me & this what I created

using 2craftychipboard goodies & Prima Marketing medium and flowers.

My first thoughts on Delicate : Baby's touch, tissue, flowers

Fabrics: Lace, tissue

 Isnt this dreamcatcher chipboard from 2craftychipboard adorable?

Goes so well with the pretty Prima flowers and bird cages from the Rosibelle Prima pattern papers.

Here is the step by step video. I hope you enjoy the video.

Aall & Create - Europe

Its been 5 years since I was last in Europe but I still remember those beautiful, huge doors we saw all over Austria & France.  Ooh la la those vintage colours & textures! That's what inspired me to try and recreate a window on an old wall.
