Steps to make:

2. I embossed the MDF swirl cut outs with chunky white embossing powder first to get the desire texture and than again done Gold embossing on it to get such effects... u can also get such effects with the texture paste.. I tried something different as this time i did not want to use any wet mediums

Time to welcome Santa with a beautiful mixed media frame

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bobtail ring'
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight!

These words kept ringing around my ears until I made this beautiful Mixed media frame. I completely tried to replicate the above lines in my art work.. Added some snow, horse, green bells, colors as per the soothing mood that sets in during the beautiful arrival of Santa. 

Since our childhood we have always heard Santa giving us gifts, but why not decorate the main door this time with a beautiful piece of Mixed Media and welcome our dear Santa home.


So once again I am back with my new project based on the coming festival.....

To make this beautiful mix media frame i used the listed material shown at the end of all instructions

I am also putting step by step instructions to understand you the project well 

1. To create this project the very first step is to give a layer to the chipboard  with texture paste

hi friends, here again Apexa Singh on craftsneed platform with a new project which will help you to create some art of representing your goodies...

1.to create this goodie bag i have used a wonderful die cut pattern paper from craftsneed.com

the paper itself is very stiff so u can make the bag directly from the paper. but i have used a black cardstock to give a thin border to the pattern paper for nice appearance..

2.score the pattern paper from the center as shown in the picture and fold it 

3/.paste the black cardstock in three parts

4. put a decorative washi tape on the joints to cover it and for the finished look

5.Cut two stripes measures pf 12 inches x 2 inches and score 0.5inches from both the sides and fold it

6. stick those strips in a triangular foam as shown, paste the base also and the 2nd half layer

7.after sticking the stripes ur goodie bag will look like this

8,have cut a border and paste it to the base of the bag and cover this border joints again i have used the washi tape

9..  collect ur decoratives like mulberry flowers, diecuts, pollens to decorate the bag

10.I also created a rosette to combine these decoratives and to give some more dimensions to my project...

11.assemble these decoratives on the rosette and paste it on one of the corner of this bag..

12. I also created a small wish tag and put on the bag...

hope the tutorial will be useful to you all and  also inspired to make something on this coming festivals
