So this is my completed MIXED MEDIA LAYOUT:
Now moving on to the tutorial,
let me quickly go through the products that i have used to create this layout.
Take a piece of cardboard, any colour corrugated sheet
and distress or archival inks.
Create the background blending the inks using blending tool and glue a piece of corrugated sheet to the base.
Now using the stamp set “Dots to Lines”Stamp setfrom the store, stamp the image randomly and add white embossing powder to it.
Heat emboss the stamped area.
Next I picked this lovely stamp set again from the store“You are so Enchanting” and stamped the images on a piece of white cardstock, colored them using faber castell color pencils and fussy cut them.
Select other embellishments to go with your background, like flowers, chipbords, die cuts, pattern papers etc.
Arrange and glue the elements to the cardboard.
I added some more texture to the base by applying texture paste to the corrugated sheet, Used shimmer pastes from the store. These are so good to use for any mixed media project and on any surface!
I also added some tint of gold paste .
Here are some close-ups:

hi friends!
This is vani here and i m back at craftyscrappers blog with beautiful shabbychic card and tag using the amazing fun foils, shiny shimmer pastes and fabulous shimmer sprays and off course with the beautiful peacock feather stencil.
Before starting with the tutorial , let me tell you… that Craftyscrappers challenges will start from the month of october’2017
so gear up to share your beautiful creations to win exciting craftyscrappers goodies…
Now.. lets talk a little about the supplies that i have used.
This is the first time i have used fun foils
To create both of my projects i have used, the SIZZLING SILVER fun foil.
these fun foils are super shiny and are of professional grade .
They work well with any lamination machine available,
if you want to heat transfer using these super shiny foils or
they can also be used with Big shot and Cuttlebug machines, where you do not need heat to transfer the foils… which is great!!! since many of us do not have lamination machines at home, Craftyscrappers also have launched, the fun foil glue, that works perfectly with these fun foils.They come in 16 gorgeous colors to chose from as well.
Then i also used the amazing and one of a kind shimmer paste, that stand out from the rest of the products in the market.
The shimmer pastes that i used for the projects are
These shimmer pastes add a fabulous layer of shimmer and shine to any craft project and you can use any kind of stencils with these shimmer paste to create beautiful sparkling details and add the touch of beauty to any card, scrapbook or mixed media.
The best thing about them is that these can be used on paper, cardboard,chipboard,acetate, wood, glass,mdf,fabric and even on layered stencils.
These shimmer paste r so smooth and so shiny… that i love to work with it and the results are super-duper awesome.
To create my artwork. i have also used the shimmer sprays.
The shimmer sprays that i have used for my projects are :
The colors of these shimmer sprays are so intense and beautiful that you will fall in love with it.
Here’s a look at the completed tag and card:
So lets begin with the tutorial…
So this is my First project, which a shabby chic card:
A BRIEF TUTORIAL ON SHABBY CHIC CARD:
First, i took a white card stock and then i stuck brown pattern paper with the help of crafty glue that was send in my dt kit. After that i applied another white pattern paper on the brown card stock, to create layers. after that i placed the Peacock feathers stencil over my working area and secured it with the help of the masking tape.then applied the beautiful.. shimmer paste on it. The shimmer paste that i have used here is called- TICKLED and added some more pattern paper and shimmer paper on top of it.Then I decorate my card with some mulberry flowers and charms and applied some glitter glue on both the sides of the card. And thus finished with my shabBy chic card.
here are some close-ups:
Here’s my second project, which is a tag…
A BRIEF TUTORIAL ON SHABBY CHIC CARD:
First i took a plain white tag and distressed it with two inks. After that i placed the peacock feather stencil on it with the help of masking tape and then i sprayed grape juice shimmer spray on the half part of the tag and let it dry.
Once dried i sprayed sweet pumpkin shimmer spray on the rest of the tag. Once everything was dried, i applied the shimmer paste “butter” on the top and the bottom of the tag.
after that i applied double side tape on the sides of the tag and used the fun foil with the tape and rubbed it smoothly.
Finally i removed the left over foil sheet and i was done.
it looked so amazing and beautiful!!! Lastly i applied some mulberry flowers and stones in the center of the tag and finally i took a die cut and stamp a sentiment on it and placed it on the tag with the help of a foam tape.
here are some close-ups:
I really love working with craftyscrappers products, they have a wonderful collection of products at a very reasonable rate.
This is Anila over the blog today, and i have some tags tutorial to share with you today,
using different techniques and mediums.
Who doesn’t love tags… 🙂 Stampers have used tags for years to create mini works of art. A tag is small that is not too intimidating very easy and fun to create.. that is .. it’s okay, even if you mess up. Tags are great for experimenting with new techniques, too.
So I created these three easy yet fun tags with stamps, inks,
sprays ,stencils and shimmer pastes…
Here’s a look at the completed tags:
So lets begin with the tutorial…
(* picture heavy post!)
To begin with, I took white colored ready tags…
You can even cut them from a white Cardstock,
of any size to create your own custom sized tags.
Ready made TAGS
Took the tag, secured it on the table with washi tape.
Then Secure the stencil over the tag with washi tape.
The stencil that i have used for this tag is from craftyscrappers
and its called, “create-a-scene(sunburst)
CREATE-A-SCENE(SUNBURST)
Take sufficient amount of shimmer paste (Separate stencil and shimmer paste for each tag) and evenly spread it across/through the stencil.
The shimmer paste that i am using here is called,
For the third tag, I coloured the background using distress ink.
(Applying Distress inks on the craft mat and picked up the color with water brush)
Let the tags dry again.
(this is how they look…)
Next, I started layering the tags with pollens and lots of flowers.
I tried to use the matching colored flowers and pollens for each tag. Like this stem color tag with coordinating flowers…
I stamped a seperate sentiment for each tag from Craftyscrappers stamp sets
and mounted them on the tag using foam adhesive.
I tied twines along with coordinating ribbon through the punched hole.
Lastly added matching sequins from craftyscrappers to add some elements.
Here’s are some of the close-ups of the tags:
(TAG#1)
For this Tag, i have used the sentiment from the stamp set, “Doodly Blooms”.
This is Deepti... and I’m so excited to be on CraftyScrappers blog today,
with my first DT post. I hope you have seen my DT kit reveal video yesterday…
If not you can check it here…
I got a variety of goodies and some of them I have used in this project that i am going to share with you today.
I ‘m sure everyone of you must have some empty jam/honey/sauce glass bottles/Jars at home and if you are clueless what to do with those bottles… Then, continue reading this post and learn with my photo tutorial.. How to covert those plain glass Jars/bottles in to a perfect Home Decor..
I took a empty glass Jar, cleaned it’s surface properly and applied a coat of gesso.
A layer of gesso makes the surface ready for painting.
Empty jar and gesso (before)
After one coat of gesso
Paint the background
Once dried, I painted its surface with white chalk paint ( you can use acrylics too) using sponge and let it air dry.
After applying chalk paint
Add Texture
Then I added the texture with Crafty Scrappers“Shimmer Paste” ( color – Dreams) using “Rose Bunch” stencil. You have to be very patient while doing this step…
I applied the Shimmer paste one side at a time and before applying it to another side ,
I let it air dry ( You can use heat gun to fasten this process :))
Isn’t it Beautiful..
I’m going to plant some succulents in this…
I really enjoyed whole process.
.I hope you will get inspired and make your own master piece for your home sweet home..

I will be more than happy to help you with any query.
