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.

I’m back again with another altered art project. But today’s project is very special because I altered an engagement ring box!! It’s a very small project but has great impacts. x
Even though the most beautiful things in life are not materialistic things. They are people and the places,the memories and pictures. They are feelings and moments, tight hugs, smiles and laughter. But an engagement ring do have a special place in our heart and has a special impact on our lives which highlights an important event and makes us trust ‘The Magic Of A New Beginning’.
For this special project, I got inspired by the inspirational words and colors of the moodboards of More Than Words Challenge and Mixed Media Academy Challenge.
I also got inspired by the ‘Anything Goes’ theme of the Bleeding Art Challenge to use mixed media on my project.
So this is my take on their January 2020 moodboard, as I take part in their challenges. xx

More Than Words Challenge Moodboard-
I loved the bright and beautiful sunset colors of the creative inspiration and tried to incorporate those colors on my project. The word inspiration ‘highlight’ is incorporated in my project by highlighting an important event of life and also by the sentiment used inside of the box.

Today I’ll be sharing with you guys some of my most recent works. This blog post is specially created as my entry for the “Couture Creations Design Team Audition 2019”
1. Diy Faux Wood Mixed Media Wall-Hanging Home Decor:
Sweater weather has already arrived and maybe you are here reading this blog with a warm cup of coffee but we all know that nothing can feel warmer than our “Home, Sweet Home” in this weather.
I love fall. The gorgeous colors of fall have always inspired me to incorporate those colors on my projects. So being inspired by those amazing colors, today I’ll be sharing with you, how I created this stunning faux wood mixed media wall-hanging home decor! Oh that was a bit of a mouthful, lol!
If you want to watch me making it, then do visit my YouTube channel and watch the video tutorial!
Alternatively, here’s a pictorial for you guys!
Step by step process:
1. At first I cut three strips of cardboard of same length and width.
2. Punched some holes for tying rope afterwards.

3. Covered the cardboard strips with tissue paper to add wooden texture.
4. Painted the strips with dark brown paint to give it a wooden look.
5. Splattered some gold and bronze paints.
6. Connecting the pieces of cardboard strips with jute rope.
7. Arranging the flowers and leaves and adhering it on the blocks.
8. Sticking the “ Home Sweet Home” sentiment cutouts. I’ve used gold mirror paper for the sentiment.
9. Last but not the least, adding my favorite neon yellow, neon orange and vanilla brown “TheRobin’s Nest” Dewdrops. Tried to create a house like pattern at the bottom with these dewdrops too.
2. Watercolored Card:
This card is one of my favorites. I have used nothing fancy to create it, like no embossing, no stamping, no die-cutting NOTHING! It’s just a simple hand-drawn watercolored card.
3.Mixed Media Canvas:
I love this mixed media canvas as it perfectly reflects my style -Simple, Colorful and Elegant.
