Post 328: Mixed Media Christmas Card

Hi friends!

Hope you are having a fine saturday :) I'd like to share a Mixed Media Christmas Card today.

Synopsis of the Process:

For this Christmas card, created texture in the background using Niro Craft’s stencil and Prima's Modelling paste and then sprinkled on Niro Craft’s Pigment Powders: Chilli Red, Golden Yellow & Parrot Green and sprayed on water for dissolving the pigments and creating movement. Then heat embossed Niro Craft’s wreath design Chipboard in white. Added the sentiment, "Peace Love Joy" which is a Cutplorations die cut and then decorated the wreath with gems, created a floral cluster, added a few twine bows and ink splatter in the end. 

List of Supplies:

Cutplorations Peace Love Joy Phrase Die
Prima's Modelling Paste
Prima's 3d Matte Gel
Niro Craft Pigment Powders
Niro Craft Wreath Chipboard
Niro Craft Stencil
Gems
Jute Twine
White and Black Cardstock
Mulberry Flowers, Red Berries
Tacky Glue

Here is a photo of the card:

Post 279: Mixed Media Layout- Peace

Hi folks!

I'm sharing a Mixed Media Layout titled Peace. This was made with some supplies from my personal stash and I tried to stretch my stamps in such a way that they could be used in a mixed media styled project. This project was featured in a Guest Design Post on the 27th of Sept., all the details are here. 

I wanted to create a Mixed Media Layout with a calm forest feel and hence, have used a green color palette. Have done background stenciling with archival ink and a sponge and then stamped over top with multiple stamps in various shades of green. Have used burlap, corrugated cardstock, die cuts, flowers & gauze for creating dimension and interest. The title #peace is stamped using the Mudra brushed alphas set. 

List of Supplies:

Prima Heavy White Gesso

White Cardstock

Flowers

Corrugated Cardboard 

Old Book Pages

Mudra Stamps- Brushes Alphas, Leaves, Floral Silhouette, Old Script

Mudra Doodle Cluster stencil 

Mudra Neon Green sequins

Tombow Mono Multi Glue

DCWV Autumn Cardstock

Cutplorations Flutter Zen 1 Layering Die

Prima Crochet Doily Die

Prima Forest Leaves Die

Archival Ink- Fern Green & Emerald Green

Here is a photo of the layout:

Here are some close-up photos:

I am playing along with the following challenges:

RCS Challenge #5- Moodboard (I was inspired by the leaves, wood and green & brown colored hues from the moodboard)

Mixed Media Place September Challenge (I was inspired by the forest, woods and the browns in the photo)

Rubber Dance Theme Challenge- Fav. Stamp (I've used the Mudra Leaves stamp which is one of my favorites. Used it to stamp the leaves in the background and also the sentiment, "enjoy the little things in life")

Post 209: CAS Christmas Card (white on white)

Hi Friends :)

I'd like to share a Clean and Simple Christmas Card. The color scheme is white on white with a touch of red in the gem. The procedure was simple enough, it involved die cutting and adhering the respective die cuts to the card. I was happy to use some of my snippets of white cardstock for the die cutting. I really love the white on white look, I think it looks very elegant :) The sentiment reads "Peace Love Joy"

List of Supplies:

Cutplorations Die- Peace Love Joy Phrase Die

Cutplorations Die- Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangles Die

Cutplorations Die- Trendy Spring Blooms Die
Iris White Cardstock 250 gsm
Tombow Mono Multi Glue
Red Gem

Here are a couple of photographs of the card:
