Chocolate explosion box

Dear friends,

I have made here an explosion box which is filled with chocolates and wishes.

Its a 6 by 6 " box which opens upto 18" square when fully opened.

It has 3 layers of 6" 5' 4" respectively.

I have layered the base of the Explosion box with 2 different types of pattern paper by Papericious.

In the corner flaps I have used pattern paper from Simple Stories.

Then adhered various embellishments.

For the lid I have stamped and colored the Julie Nutting stamp and added the flowers and resin frame. Also added the happy birthday sticker and 13 number as candles.

I have kept the box simple as chocolates had to be added.

Holi : Festival of colors

Hello,

Today I have made a Scene Card for an Indian festival of colors : Holi .

Scene Cards are basically Layered cards which give a 3D perceptive.
In this we try and create a scene. Scene be of any occasion eg Wedding , birthday etc
Today I have done for the festival of colors HOLI

Like in this card I have placed the color powder plates in one row.
Then sweets and color water filled balloons in one row.
Then the color water filled bucket with pichkaris
A boy and a girls playing on either corners.

I have first stamped the images on a white cardstock using masking technique
Then colored them with Zig watercolor brushes
Then put shimmer pates to give a glittery look to everything.
Now fussy cut from the top side only.
Now take 8 by 6 inches cardstock 2 numbers : one for the base and one for the frame.
Take another 2 pieces of cardstock 6 by 2.5 inches . Score at every half inches and fold like a fan.
This we will adhere on the sides of the base cardstock.
Then adhere the layers one by one with red tacky tape or any other adhesive
Stamp the water splash stamp on the frame cardstock with distress ink and add Candy shimmer paste.
Now randomly color the boy and the girl with different distrss inks.
Place them on the corners.
Stick the pichkaris on them with foam tape.
Add the color powder plates and sweets plate in one corner.
For the sentiment I have used different color embossing powders to go well with the festival.

PLEASE CHECK OUT THE VIDEO FOR THE TUTORIAL OF THIS CARD

Album Box

Hello friends

Here is a box I made for an album.
These boxes keep the album safe.
 I have here taken a MDF box... with dimensions 12 "* 10* 5.5"
First I painted the whole box with white gesso and then with chalk paint.
I have put a coordinating paper according to the album.
I used script stencil with mixed media paste on top of the box .
Then used rose stencil and dabbed randomly with distress ink all over the box.
With black archival ink I stamped randomly.

That's all from my side today hope you all like my box.
Do leave your views. Would love to know.
Happy Crafting.
