BGC#65: Mood board + Stamping with Bipasha !

Hello everyone !!

So here I meet you again wonderful crafty people :) and looking forward to another fun-filled year of BGC enjoying each of your unique and new creations.

 And I hope you like the fresh new modifications we have made to our challenge formats this year!!

Let me walk you all again through the challenge gudelines:

Our moodboard for this Feb challenge 

Here is my take on the challenge. I was inspired by the stunning colours of the moodboard, the heart shape of the doughnuts, and the flower bunch in the vase!! And ended up creating a shadowbox photo frame from scratch :)

For the stamping, I used the picket fence distress stain and bo bunny coffee stain stamp design to make the white ink marks behind the photo in the background and stamped some scripts on the pp scrap too !

 Hope you love my creation!!

Can't wait to see what you all will be creation...

Much love ...xoxo

Bips

Isnt that wonderful ??? 

Now that its sorted lets take a look at what i made

I decided to do a tall card this time :) 
I find the size quite interesting to work with.

I got my first electronic sewing machine for Christmas :) Its amazing how a simple stitch can add so much to your project ! :) You will see me playing a lot more with my machine soon.

Inspiration from the mood board : 

I decided to make this card into a wedding themed one because somehow i got the wedding vibe from the mood board.

I took inspiration from the table decoration in terms of colors and the elements . 

I went for the white butterflies too , its just an amazing piece of art im sure no one will miss ! 

 All the flowers are handmade.
I managed to add my stamped elements as layers around which the flower arrangement goes.

I do have some misting in mint underneath the elements.
I also used some fabric element with mesh cloth .

I do hope you like my project and will join us this month

BGC#64-sparkly-christmas-or-new-year

Hello dear friends !

Its Pj here and i hope you are enjoying our current challenge 

BGC#64-sparkly-christmas-or-new-year

December is my favorite month because its so festive and nice !

Specially here in my city :) Its so amazing 

So Bipasha has challenged us to create some lovely and Sparkly Christmas or new year projects.

Lets look at the rules : 

CHALLENGE GUIDELINES (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY):

• Make a project using COLOURS of Christmas(green, red, white, black) OR a Christmas/New year wish related SENTIMENT.

• You MUST use SPARKLES/GLITTERS onto your projects that should be very clearly visible.

Isn't that pretty simple?

And the winner will receive a prize package from 

 our generous sponsor !!

Creativita

Prize :

 

The above Stamp set from Fiskars , 

A bag full of MDF goodies (surprise) and 

Two Mini Stamps from Studio112..

 

Amazing isnt it ?

 

So I made a tag set for the challenge. 

 When someone says sparkle with Christmas my head directly runs in the direction of glittery reindeer and deers !!

Which are the focal point of my tags.

Here are some close ups of the individual tags.

 I have used some Prima cigar box paper for the base , 

Over which i have used a Memory box die and then added my handcut and glittered deer. 

 This one is somewhat a replica of a tag i made last year. 

Here i have used Prima sea shore paper and some memory box dies in the background.

And last but not the least this one is my favorite of the lot. 

Again some prima seashore collection paper , with a spellbinders die and a jingle bell :) 

So i hope you liked my creation and are inspired to participate in this 

fairly simple challenge that's running a MONTH long this time. 

Please join the challenge  HERE

Thankyou !
