'Merry Christmas' CSI Case 267 with Kripa Koushik

Hi friends,

This month 2crafty chipboard is sponsoring the challenge at CSI - Case 267 and this is my take on it.For evidence, I used a background paper with grids, tags in the layers behind the photograph, stars, reindeer, string and lots of Christmas elements. For the testimony Ive documented something about Christmas and put my journaling on a tag.

I started by applying a layer of gesso on all the 2crafty chipboard pieces.

Two of the pieces - mini reindeer and star circular frame are covered 
with metallic gold paint from Colourarte.

 The Mini Bauble Tree was painted with metallic Teal paint.

This is my favourite part of the layout. I love how beautiful these two pieces
of chipboard look layered over each other. To colour the St. Nicks Snowflake,
 I applied stamp pads in shades of green directly on the gessoed piece.
Once heat set, dab a little white gesso to get a distressed look.

  

Thank you for visiting us today.

Have a great week ahead.

Kripa

Christmas Cards with Kripa Koushik

Hello friends,

My project today is a pair of Christmas cards using a few of the beautiful Christmas 

themed 2crafty chipboard pieces.

As always, I started by applying a coat white gesso on all the chipboard pieces. The Xmas Deer Head and St. Nick Snowflakes were coloured using stamp pads. Once the ink dried, the Xmas deer head was stamped over with a script stamp & gold acrylic paint.

 For this  card, the Mini Reindeer and St.Nicks Snowflakes were coloured with stamp pads. The Mini Bauble Tree was painted with gold acrylic paint. I cut the snowflake in two and tucked them under the pattern papers.

Thank you for visiting us today.

December Inspiration by Noura Pompilla +Photo Tutorial

Hello my 2crafty friends!!

Noura here today my December projects. As it is Christmas, I have created a Christmas
 themed page and even though I personally don't celebrate these holidays, I would like to
wish all of you a merry Christmas and God bless all of you and your families and I hope
 he gives you lots of peace.

 My first project is a layout with the classic colors of Christmas..

"Wish Peace"

Some close ups

I used Circle Dot Frame on top of my photo and I covered it with a snowflake paste.

 Floral Branch, I gave it some touches of gesso with a dry brush and I added pearls.

I did the same with Fernlike Snowflake

I took two words from the Xmas  mini word pack to form the title of my layout "Wish" and "Peace".

2Crafty chipboard used:
-Circle Dot Frame
-Floral Branch
-Xmas Mini Word pack
-Fernlike Snowflake

I based it on the following challenge :

Cards"Reindeers"+ Photo tutorial

This is my second project, two cards with lots of brightness, I hope that you all like it.
 Some photos were taken with little night because it was night time, so I apologize

First we cover with gesso the cardboard papers.

Next we paint it with Magicals "Sassy Saphire"from Lindys.

Then we add a little bit of  Starbust "Frozen Jack frost " to clear up the color.

Then we put on some modeling paste with a stencil and we let it dry.

Next with a dry brush we spread the cardboard paper with gesso.

We sew around the edges. 

I embosssed  Circle dot frame  and 12"circle revolution with white embossing powder
 and Mini Raindeer  with King midas gold embossing powder from Lindys.

My titles "Noel " and "Joy" from Crishtmas Mini word set 1 were painted and
embossed with clear embossing powder

I stuck on some circular paper below.

I have added threads to the sides and some paper to the frame

We add all the decoration with flower and berries.

Finally I added some accents & more brightness.
