Bliss - Sketchabilities March 30th reveal

 

 It's reveal day at Sketchabilities, with the gorgeous #112 sketch by Karan:

I used a lot of gesso, mists, distress stains and ink on this page :)). I really enjoyed getting messy. I used the tag I made for my GD spot at CHAC, some Carta Bella's papers, Prima's stamps and Creative Embellihsments' snowflake chipboards.

Here are some close-ups on the details:

I would like to enter it to the'free for all' challenge at Off the Rail Scrapbooking, and for the 'paint/mist' challenge at The crafty Scrapper.

Thank you for taking the time and visiting my blog. I appreciate every comment  you care to leave me.

Show some sparkle! - GD for 2nd challenge at Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge

This is my 2nd project as a GD at Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge blog, and this time the challenge is to show us some sparkle, glizt or glam!

Graphic 45 is our sponsor this month. They are known for their fabulous vintage    products and papers. To pay homage to their glamour and style, create a project         that shows off your hoarded sparkly items. Show some glitz! Pump up the glam!           Use the photo collection below for extra inspiration. You need not match the colors or style of the photos, just use them as inspiration - notice the glass, gems, pearls, metal, glitter! What do you hoard that is "sparkly"? and here's an inspiration photo:

Being a GD at CHAC, made me make projects I usally don't make, and that is awesome! I worked on my tag with several mediums, and for the sparkly part, I used glimmer mists, glitter and bling.

Soon you'll be able to see how I used this tag on another project, and here's a sneak peek on it:

Thank you, Gloria, for giving me such a wonderful opportunity to be a GD on your challenge blog. I enjoyed every minitue of it.

Guest Designer at Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog

Welcome to Challenge #3 at Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog! I'm so honored to be a Guest Designer for March.

Challenge 3 is all about vintage or retro style:

Graphic 45 is our sponsor this month, so let's see what you can make in a vintage or retro style. Do you hoard lace or vintage hat pins? Do you snap up all the postcards at yard sales? Do you love mid-century modern? Do you long for avocado appliances and orange shag carpets? Show your vintage or retro spin on a paper crafting project. 

Here is my project, a vintage style pen holder and a coordinate card:

Challenge Rules can be found HERE. Make sure to link your project using the Link Tool on the Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog.
