Welcome back to my blog. Hope you guys are doing well!
So today I’m here to share a card that I’ve recently created for a friend’s birthday, using her favorite colors and coincidentally the color palette perfectly matched with the August moodboard of Altenew Inspiration Challenge!
I’ve use kraft cardstock as the base, used striped floral stamp set from Altenew and heat embossed it with Fabrika Decoru mirror gold embossing powder. Then I colored the image with red alcohol markers, distressed the edges with vintage photo distress oxide, added the sentiment ‘hey’ using Altenew Fine Alphabet die set. Finally finished off the project with some touches of glossy accent and red sequins.
I’m Fairuz Fabiha, a 20 years old, resident of Bangladesh and a student of Architecture, who loves paper crafting, card making, scrapbooking and doing mixed media art. I also have the experience in designing chipboard cutouts for one my design teams.
I’m currently working as a designer for “The Robin’s Nest” , “CrafTreat” and “Lisa Horton Crafts” design team. But my terms with CrafTreat and Robin’s Nest will end this December.
Fabrika Decoru has and will always have a very special place in my heart because I started my ‘mixed media’ journey with their products. Not only I fell in love with their products but it made me fall in love with mixed media art too. Their versatile range of products are what you need to satisfy your cravings as a mixed media artist.
I think I would be a good fit for the Fabrika Decoru team because I’m a team player, a passionate crafter and I always take my work seriously.
And nevertheless, I love their products and I’m most comfortable in using the type of products they produce. And my works are the best proof of it. Most of my creations (if not all) includes at least one or more Fabrika Decoru products. I believe when you truly love and feel comfortable with what you are doing, naturally the end result will be good.
It will be an honor and a dream come true to be able to work for a manufacturing company like fabrika decoru. I earnestly hope to be lucky enough to be selected xx
Hello Craftivators!
I’m back again with another mixed media altered art project. Today I’ll be sharing with you how I create a simple home decor using mixed media.
I got inspired by my life and current situations to create today’s piece.
Being a student of architecture, I have to work intensively for hours. Some nights I don’t even get the chance to sleep. My work load have increased to a great extent since I’m working from home in this quarantined time. Sometimes it gets a bit to overwhelming and depressing for me and I start regretting my decisions. But the very next moment I realize that at least I’m privileged enough to get to choose the subject I wanted to study, do what I love, have a secured place to shelter myself in this time of distress and have my loved ones support me for no matter what. Rather than overthinking about everything I should be grateful and happy for everything I have and believe there’s a moment of joy in every day!
This was my dt project for the Splashymix challenge. Their amazing moodboard inspired me to choose the colors blue and brown for this project.
I also got inspired by the lovely moodboard of the MORE THAN WORDS Challenge. I always love birds. When I’m all awake till dawn, the chirping sounds of the birds cutting through the silence always amuses me and makes me happy. I try finding my joy from moments like this EVERYDAY!

Hi Crafty Friends,
Fairuz Fabiha here from Craftivation. Today I’m back again with a technique of using the amazing Robin’s Nest dewdrops! I’ll be showing you how I used these mini dewdrops to not only embellish my project but also add texture on the background using the dewdrops.
For my today’s project, I’ve decided to make an mdf bookmark.
Step by step process:
1. At first I took an mdf tag by Lisa Horton Crafts as the base of my bookmark.
2. Applied a layer of Fabrikadecoru resist texture paste through the maze stencil by Lisa Horton Crafts.
3. Added mini dew drops by the Robin’s Nest all around the edges of the bookmark and applied a layer off gesso to prime the surface.
4. Applied layers of spray paints by Fabrikadecoru.
5. Embellished the bookmark with mdf tag sentiment, sisal, tassel and ribbon.
6. Finally added some white dewdrops to finish it off.
