The Traingle Round about!!

hi ppl,

U might think its just another random shape...but wait!!..its not we use often in our creations...

and believe me i was thinking on my project for days...

And zeroed upon this idea...

A layered triangle box with a twist..and the twist goes as each layer can turn 360 degrees..!!
And yes all boxes open up for small trinkets, chocolates, etc..

And here is my take on the triangles!!..

I created three triangle boxes and the base of one box is attached to the lid of the lower box with a

little brad.

The box looks like this when aligned ..

And like this when each layer turns ...

And yes! the boxes open up!

Hope my little experiment inspired you think out of the box!..

Pretty as Pink

Hey lovely ppl, 

On and off have been sharing few of my creations with you.

I often mention quilling as my base but i love trying my hands on scrapbooks, cards etc..

So here is sharing one square box i made recently for a cute mini album. 

Here is a snap shot of the album cover page..I love using resin charms..here i have used the inka gold generously over the charm and also the doily dress over the box.

 cover page of the album

Used lace on the sides of the box and adorned it with some pearls.

I love adding mulberry flowers to my projects, they give a different feel to the project. Added little charms and also a peacock feather. Elegant and delicate corner die cuts sits on the edges of the box.

Hope you like the above box.

Cuteness Multifold

hi Peeps..
So here I am with my take on this month's challenge at Kraftzone...
Its fun and is like crafty tambola!!..to get the houses first...

I created this invite which can be used for baby shower or birthday invite .

I have taken a 5.5"x 5.5" white textured cardstock. Inked the surface with distress ink (broken china) and than used Studio Calico's chevron mask stencil to layer it with salty ocean.

Next have used Martha Stewart Deco Fan round the edge punch (one of my favorite) and adhered the white strip to the center of the card.

I have used Marianne createables die baby pram, layered the hood with a yellow textured cardstock for the pram hood. Used mulberry flowers and fillers on the hood. Ribbon bow and rhinestones adorn the cute little pram. And did you notice the little blue feather tucked behind the wheels of the pram.

The sentiment comes from Avery Elle You're invited stamp set.

Hope you like the little invite.

Shabby Chic Altered box

Heu lovely ppl...

Its always fun to up cycle, alter or change the boring look of our old belongings. So this time after thinking for almost a day, my eyes caught hold of this ugly looking nutties box which I use for storing my lazercuts..(have this box with me for last 25 years..:) )

{Warning: This is a photo heavy post :P..}

Lets start...

Took the old square box, used gesso to cover it and than painted it with Camlin Artist's Acrylic Colors (mixed titanium white, medium magenta, scarlet lake) to get the pastel pink tone.

I have used  Jodie Lee's Butterfly Paper pack from Prima (its a gorgeous collection )

Cut strips of desired size as per the box dimensions.

To give a little aged look i use Tonic Studio's Paper Distresser

Used my fav adhesive Hobby idea's fabric glue..sticks almost everything on any surface..If u look carefully u will be able to notice the distressed paper edges. I have not inked the edges to keep that softer look and it helps the paper to jut blend in the colored background.

For the lid I used my corner puncher to round of the corners as per the design of the box.

The Butterfly paper are so pretty so i thought of making flowers using the same pp.Here I have used Heartfelt Creations's Sun Kissed Fleur die set..(i skipped the using the coordinating stamp)

For shaping the flowers I used Mcgills Paper blossom embossing tools..and since i dont hv a proper embossing pad I used the Sospeso Transparente embossing pad..works just fine..

To give a little dimension to the flowers I sprinkled a little Diamond dust on the tips of the flower petals.

The pack has such lovely images that I couldn't  stop myself from some fussy cutting..

(adhered the fairy with two way foam tape)

Now comes the layout part for the lid..I have put together the handmade flowers, mulberry roses, Prima's  Resin Shabby Chic Treasures and Swirls.

For the oval center resin charm I used Viva's Inka Gold..just love the golden finish it gives..easy to apply and quick to dry..

To finish the look I have also used lace from my mom's stash..

And finally here is the complete look....
