Back to Explosion Box - Black & Red

Hello folks,

Good to be back to blogging. Today's post is an explosion box. With the pics first

The Box

Top View

Usually my style is to jus go with 2 contrast colours, this time i tried using beautiful pp and mix matched them. I am not perfect with heat embossing so i tried it in this project. Infact used a lotta heat embossing.

You see the butterfly... lets take a closer look,

It is a paper pierced Butterfly from the same pp. I drew Small lines with Emboss It pen and heat embossed it with gold Glitter Wow powder. Then finally added glossy accent for the finish. Loved doing it. My own lil embellishment

Shaker element on Box lid

Gift Box Centre

This box was for a wedding, For a watch to be kept in the centre as a gift. So i used all golden yellow where ever possible to make it grand. The red card stock base is fully stamped with script stamp in shadow ink.(Visible in the nxt couple of pics) Usually photographs cover the bulk of panels, but here i worked on all panels.

Second Layer

Close up View

All Sentiments are Gold embossed. Finally got the hang of it. I cudnt stop myself from heat embossing everything. See the bird cage and the butterflies in it. I punched a couple of butterflies from back card stock, drew designs with Emboss It pen and heat embossed with gold. 

So that's it. Hope u enjoyed taking a look here. I positively enjoyed heat embossing. 

Thanks for stopping by,

I was inspired by all the gold and glitter in the moodboard, also the flowers, diecut and the tiny beads which i have used in the shaker element.

All Pinky 'Card in a Box'

Hello there crafters....

Hope everyone out there are busy as bees. Ok today s post is a Card in a Box. It was for a lil girl and so i added lots of pink in it. Girls and Pink.... it was always a great combo but now a days girls once into the teens want to distance themselves from "Pink" cos i guess pink screams cute cuddly and a baby all over. This is because i got a couple of requests for 15 16 year old girls asking kindly avoid pink :)

Here is my all pinky card for a 9 yr old :) Have a look

Side View

The popping elements i have added here are few but take a look at the 3d banner i have added. Do u know how i created it? I took a curvy strip of transparent sheet and stuck the lil triangles to it, then added lil bows at the end. Then to this set up i added tooth picks to act as poles. You might get a look at the tooth picks in the first pic and the next one. Simply loved it, i should have taken a individual pic of it i guess

The popping elements

I have paper pierced the tatty bear from a PP and added 3d elements to it, Lil glittery stars and bday hats. And to the back side i have added another sentiment and left some space for personal message.

The back view

And finally i made a coordinating box cover for it, all pinky again ;)

That is all for today, hope u enjoyed it. Thanks for stopping by.

Have a great day

Wish cards !!!

Hi again...

I have never heard of wish cards till i was requested one recently. Its a pretty simple concept, a bundle of small cards for everyone to write wishes or one card each for a special memory from the same person.    

   

I found an old heart shaped gift perfect to hold the wish cards, so with a cute pic of the bday gal and a few flowers it was complete. This simple project turned out prettier than i thought. Hope u liked it.

Happy monday folks, hope its crafty all through the week.

Piano card

Hello again....

Hope u r all enjoying ur chrisrtmas holidays. Since am also on a break, thought ill catch up with my blog. So here are a couple of piano cards.

First is the one in traditional black & white colour combo

Side View

Top view

top panel open

I have done it like an easel card with drawer. Once u get the idea, execution was pretty easy, but cutting out the piano keys and sticking it with proper gaps required time & patience. But in all loved the outcome and was very satisfied. Do u see the music notes inside, it coordinates with the theme of the card. The flowers are again made using my itsy bitsy daisy die. The box contains an accordion card with photos, forgot to click photos here.

Now here is the same piano card but in red & white colour....

Gift Box

 

Guess there is no need to explain again, everything is the same except the colours. Here the drawer box holds a Perfume bottle.

Thanks for dropping by and for the lovely comments on the christmas explosion box. 

PS. Had a great november month, came top 3 in BGC and Lulupu for 2 different projects and i was the winner @ PPS november challenge. This is my first in all 3, so really excited. Thanks everyone for ur lovely comments, suggestion & support.

Gift Box & Tag

Hello all...

Here is a gift box n tag i made for the current challenge at Crafters Corner.

I altered a Ipod box into a gift box. I just needed a reason to make a box for the challenge, so wen my daughter wanted a cute little box to put her crayons at school, i jumped at the chance. The coordinating tag will be used on her school bag or travel bag, both the box n the tag has her name on it. I soo wanted to use a pretty lil bow, but it will be inconvenient for her to handle. For such reasons i have kept the embellishments to a minimum. Here is another view. 

As an after thought, there are so many things i could have done different. But thats the way it is, gotta keep improving at each attempt.

Supplies Used

PP - DCWV Girlhood paper stack

Blue Stripes Washi tape - LuLupu

Buttons - Locally bought

The butterfly n flowers on the tag - i have coloured it with sketch & added pearls

Golden handle on the Tag - from old marriage invite

ok, hope u all liked it. Do give me ur feedback

c u soon again
