Distressed 3D frame

Hello friends ....

As u all know we have a collaboration this month I.e. Art Studio by Apexa and Hands to heart by Shrishti Arora.... and we will be creating some really cool and fun projects together on our YouTube channels.

Have created very first project by keeping this colour theme challenge by Art daily cafe this month..... the colour scheme is really cool and one of my favourite too🥰🥰🥰

So let me just share a pictorial for my project though I have a video Tutorial on this ( https://youtu.be/rbz-ptqSpgs ) but this one is for my those friends who all really love to read blogs....

Steps to follow:

Step 1 : Cut 4 squares of size 6" x 6" from Kraft sheets with circular nested dies as shown in the picture 

Step 2 : Emboss all four squares with different embossing folders

STEP 3 : Stick all 4 squares with foam tapes to create dimensions to give 3D look to the frame keeping the smallest circle at the lowest place.

Step 4: paint the complete frame with two shades i.e. Teal and brown and blend them properly....I have used

 1. Teal blue : 

2. Brown shade : 

Step 5 :  Take sand paper and rub it  the frame to give distressed look

Step 6 : once u get ur required distressed effects can take a distress oxide ink -  Shade "Vintage Photo" and distressed edges of the frame further 

You will get some really cool effects by doing this

Step 7. Can decorate the frame with some artificial flowers and leaves.... I have used red flowers and some golden fillers to match with my photos 

Step 8 : Was feeling that the frame is incomplete without some corners so stocked these filigree with Glossy Accent

And finally I could get this really vintage look to my frame.... friends hope u have enjoyed the process....

If u wanna take part in Art daily cafe than above is the link ....will come up with some more cool projects this month..... stay tuned.... happy Crafting 🥰🥰🥰🥰

FOCUSED!!!!

Greetings friend!!!

It's not about perfection!!! Its all about efforts and when u bring that efforts every single day, that's where transformation happens and that's how change occurs!!!!

"DONT FOCUS ON WHAT I AM UP against. I FOCUS ON MY GOAL AND I TRY TO IGNORE REST".......Venus Williams

Hey friends!!!here I am so excited to present my very first project with The Academy of Scrapbooking and Arts!!! And I named my project as "Focused"

The theme of the month is Flowers and I associated the flowers with FOCUS as I accept both - " complements and Criticism"
It takes both Sun and rain to grow a flower!!!!

And so I wake up with determination and go to bed with satisfaction 😍😍😍😍


In My project I followed the following steps with all my thoughts!!

- For the Background I used all my scrap pieces and embossed them with multiple embossing folders
- I coloured them with multiple shades of distress oxides and edged them with some vintage shades
- I stuck them all together in the centre part of my panel by little overlapping and the part which I could not cover simply apply contrasting shades just with my fingers

- stencilling on the rest of the part
- stuck some art stones mixed with heavy body gel
-for enhancements and to match with some of my leafy die cuts and dailies, I created little free hand designs with 3d outlines

-Also prepared some MDF embellishment covered with textured paste and coloured again by distress inks applied with daubed

-Finalised my composition deciding the focal point with The Tital "FOCUSED" and also decided the corners to balance the focal point.

-And stick all elements together!!!!

Tadaaaaa..... I simply love my project with this amazing composition and my message with it!!!!
How about u friends???
If the project has really inspired  you in any ways... would really love to see ur love in comments!!!!

Happy Crafting!!!
