HEY… Happy Birthday

Hello everyone!

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.

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.
