Thanks Vintage Style

I have made this vintage looking card to say thanks to Deepti from Catchy Crafts for sending me the candy and .... she also sent me a tag and a cute cupcake card for get well soon wishes (so sweet of you Deepti) !

Beige and Brown are prime colors in this card also there is White to highlight some parts.  I enjoyed making this card so much.  I have done lots of tearing and fraying also curled the top right corner of the page. 

   

The lady in the image is so beautiful and I printed this image from Google.  Another technique that I have done here is tea dying. The ribbon, paper lace and fabric for the flower, they all were white and they look so lovely afterwards.    

My favorite part I have recycled the paper from real estate pamphlet/Booklet and I think the paper is real pretty.

Happy Christmas

This is a Christmas card that I have made.. in bright Christmas colors.. 

The bear image a from 'from me to you' die cut pack.'  I stamped the lace border and threaded the ribbon through and added some punched snowflakes as if the bear is looking at snowfall. 

I resisted the urge to add flowers and more stuff and kept it simple as there are so many snowflakes and flowers in the background.

Hands to heart challenge - Christmas theme
Itsy Bitsy - Kiss

Altered Jar

Painted the jar green from outside and pink from inside. I tried to follow the pattern on ribbon and added white dots.

Carousel

Hey guys, I did a guest post at my friend Zografia's blog " made by Bisozozo ".  She is a wonderful person and you must check out her blog she makes very Stylish stuff from jewelry to lamp or anything!

I'm excited to share this post both because I did some recycling and I made something useful!  We have all seen Carousels, they are so fascinating, shiny and fun to ride but this not just a Carousel it is also a Jewelry storage system.

First I decided how I wanted to construct the cardboard Carousel shape then I incorporated jewelry storage ideas into it.

At the bottom it has a round box to store jewelry ..It has flowers on one side and butterflies on the other..

Then the top part can also be removed, I made it in a way so that I can keep my Bangals here.  As the unicorns are attached to the top part of the Carousel, bangals can be easily added or taken out without any hassle

So here are the construction details: 

Bottom part - first I created a round box and it's lid  

Middle part - Take a cylinder shape (I recycled one from foil paper packaging) make a 1 inch slit on it. Bend the sides and glue them on the lid of the box so as to attach the cylinder and the lid together. 

To cover it and secure the cylinder shape in place I glued a cardboard circle , with a hole in the middle to slide through the cylinder, on top of the lid.

Top part - I cut out a hexagon shape from cardboard, glued 6 ribbons on it and on top of it I glued a cone with a bead on it. This time again  I kept a hole in the hexagon shape to fix the cylinder  there and then I started decorating it ... 

I had an amazing time designing, creating and decorating this project and I hope you enjoyed viewing it !!!

Thank you!
