MIX MEDIA INSPIRATION ON DIWALI





Hello to all,

I am Pooja, I am glad to be a guest today on Ranganjali blog. I am presenting some colourful creations on Diwali theme created using Ranganjali’s Diwali Diya Stamp Set. The first one is a layout and the second one is a greeting card.


Layout
  
I decided to upcycle some scrap paper pieces for these projects. We all have scrap pieces, however once in a while we get some ideas where these pieces can be used perfectly. First, I stamped with Rangoli stamp from the Diwali Diya stamp set in black archival ink. I used distress inks- Wilted Violet and Vintage Photo as planned to have antique look.

On another piece, I used Wow embossing powders and heat embossed a half of the image. After that, I applied Wilted Violet in the center, and little yellow and Gold of Inca Gold on sides. I stamped some Diya from the same stamp set and painted with watercolours. I drew, painted and cut a girl’s image to go with the theme.

Once I had all the pieces ready, I assembled them. I used three yellow papers pieces and distressed their edges. I die cut a yellow paper using Spellbinder’s Labels Twenty Two. As a base, I re-used an old red card.

So here is the complete look of the layout.





Greeting Card

This, next one is a layered card. 


For this, I have used a negative diecut piece left from the above layout to give a window like look. I added another piece of yellow paper in an arch shape to give additional depth to the window and added little flowers on it. I have used a remaining piece of purple sheet as a background for the window. Again, I have used the same stamp set to create Diya images and to stamp sentiments as well as Aum and Shree symbols.






These are two quick creation of mine. I hope you like them.

Thanks for stopping by!

And, happy holidays to all in advance!
