Craft March Challenge 2: Saba's Project

The theme was Vintage.

The thought behind this layout: The acrylic lock signifies the cherished memories locked in time, remnants of which are held within this 5" keepsake box

Its done is tones of pink and brown with lots of embellishments mounted on a rose paper base.

 

The letters were done using stamps followed by distressing the edges and all. 

The envelope was plain and I added the cherish sentiment to it. I got the print as a free printable, which I folded to form an envelope. 

On the top I added a metal filigree; I've had this since forever and I love it.

Organza ribbon added round the edges. You can also see that the entire box has been distressed and aged to go with the theme.

Craft March: Project 8 - "I Adore You"

Yup, I really do ;)

*Sigh* its been a very long, very busy and a very tiring week so far, alhumdolillah. I had completed this project on Sunday or Monday, but just didn't get a chance to post. So without further delay, I give you Project 8 - I Adore You!

The beauty of this card lies in the white roses. Each rose is hand made using the Tim Holtz die; the largest with 7 layers, medium with 6 and small with 3. The flourish in the background is white chipboard, and the cardstock is from Memory Box. I don't remember the exact name of the pa because two of Memory Box stacks got mixed somehow, and now I cant remember which is which. The little 'dew drops', I don't know what to call these. They aren't exactly rhinestones, but something on those lines. The dew drops were inspired by Erum Tasneem's cards - her recent collection has bursts of glitter balls, and bling and they look really nice. Added some trim to give the card 'the complete look.'

I wanted the roses to be pure white. I simply shaped the petals without using any ink or paint on them.

The tag is layered too.

thats all folks!

Happy Crafting

As the 7th project for March I put together a very simple and easy card, "Enjoy".

Done on a white base with hot pink layered with brown inch-ies, further layered with yellow and green polka dot cardstock.


This has turned out to be a very warm and fun card. Love it!
