Autumn Fairy... Scrapping 4 Fun (DT) #84

Good morning, guys! Today I'm sharing my DT post for Scrapping 4 Fun Challenges. Our Challenge #84 for this fortnight is 'Anything Goes'. 

The image that I've used here is called 'Autumn Fairy' and can be found here.

I wanted to create a whimsical and dreamy card to complement the digi image. And so the layering and the flowers and vines were added keeping that in mind.

I've coloured my image with my Spectrum Aqua and Alcohol markers. with a pop of colourful glitter here and there in the berries and the clothing.



Our sponsor this week is Fabrika Fantasy (and they've got some really yummy digi images, so be sure to check them out).

"LOVE"... Simply Create Too (DT) #124


Heyloo Hello! How is everyone doing? I'm here with my very first DT post for Simply Create Too, challenge #124. Our theme for this month is: 'Love'; with this being the month of love, ofcourse! So be sure to drop by the blog and participate with your beautiful creations :)!

For my project, I've created a beautiful 'LOVE' album; from scratch! That's right! All the stylised letters that you see here, have been created and 'carved' by me. And I've beautifully created every letter front and back, with a lot of elegant embellishments.

There is enough space for writing kewt and sweet notes; and to stick about 15-18 pictures with a lot of pockets to store more photos.

All can be seen in the subsequent photos.





 The back of the letter 'L' (with sweet spaces and tabs for writing kewt notes - the butterfly flap opens up!).
And the front of the letter 'O' (with a kewt pocket and a tag for writing).



The back of the letter 'O' (space could be utilised for writing messages).
And the front of the letter 'V' (kewt pocket with photo mats for sticking small photos).



The back of the letter 'V' (with a translucent vellum flap to stick photos - only so that beautiful green design paper beneath is not hidden).



The front of the letter 'E' (has a waterfall tab thingy for sticking multiple 4x6 photos one after the other - front and back).



The back of the letter 'E' (has a kewl translucent vellum pocket that stores 3 photo mats on which you can stick 4x6 photos - front and back. You can also store more photos in the pocket if you like).



The last slide is an added feature. I found stopping at 'E' very abrupt. So you've got 1 more pocket with lots of photo mats where you can stick 4x6 photos and store more extra photos if you like.



The back of the last slide (has a translucent vellum paper on which you can stick a 4x6 photo).

For Your Wedding... Scrapping 4 Fun (DT) #83

Hello guys! 3rd day of the month, and I'm back with my 3rd DT project. This is for Scrapping 4 Fun Challenges and the beautiful theme for Challenge #83 this week is: 'Friends, Love, Wedding, Valentine' - take your pick :).

For this amazing theme, I wanted to make a 'Wedding' card. And this is what I've come up with :D! A beautifully centered wedding themed die-cut in an elegant 3d box. I created a border around it with some leaf stem thingies (don't know what these are called lol) and added a beautiful sentiment at the bottom which reads 'For Your Wedding'.





Our sponsor for this challenge is Scrapping 4 Fun Shop. So be sure to head over to the blog and participate with your lovely creations.

Fairy Columbina... Crafting With An Attitude (DT) #24

Hie guys! I must say, for my DT projects for Feb, I have felt quite inspired. I've loved whatever I've created so far.

My 2nd post for Feb is for my DT project for Crafting With An Attitude. Our Challenge #24 this week has a very talented sponsor: 'MoonFlower Digi Stamps'. The image that I've used here is called 'Fairy Columbina' and can be found here.

As most of you know, I really love going the watercolour route, rather than using the alcohol ink/markers. So for this card, I wanted to try a different colour scheme (something vibrant and bright); and I love the beautiful hues of red and purple that I've used here. I've coloured this beautiful image with my Derwent watercolour pencils and my distress inks. And for the wings, I've added glitter glue on most of it.

Colour Burst mixed media... Inspiration Destination (DT) #121

Hie everyone! Time seems to be really galloping! It's the 1st of Feb, already! So here I am, back with my first DT project of the month, and I really enjoyed creating it.

Welcome to Inspiration Destination Challenge #121 where the theme is 'Always Anything Goes'.

As some of you must be aware, I have been in love with mixed media and that is the reason I started crafting. It's only recently that I could create some hands on mixed media projects.

So for this challenge, I've created a beautiful mixed media wall decor/hanging. I've used a lot of embellies here, but I've also used a lot of unconventional blings and scraps.
