Recycled Theme Project

Hi, everyone. This month at Off The Rails Scrapbooking, we are having a recycle moodboard challenge. Use something you recycled in your project. Love the moodboard colors.

And I made a mixed media canvas, recycling an old spoilt watch, 2 strips of leftover wood from a previous dollhouse project and 3 brushes. 

"Grow"

I created the background texture  by spreading texture paste over a stencil, stamped some words stamps randomly across page.

I covered the wood strips, chipboard frames, clock, brushes and watch with a coat of watered down gesso. Then misted over them with teal and bronze sprays. And adhered the flowers, wood veneers and added tiny crystal flats over the page. 

I hope you enjoy my sharing. Do join us for this month's challenge. Hop on over to Off The Rails Scrapbooking to see what my team members created as well. Have fun.

Thanks for dropping by.

OTRS Aug Moodboard Challenge

Hi, everyone. This month at Off The Rails Scrapbooking, we are having a Tribal moodboard challenge. You can use the colors, theme and images as inspirations for your project.

Here's what I created:

"Remember When"



When I thought of Tribal, hathernware came to my mind. So I created the background of the canvas into hathernware design using texture paste and Prima rust paste and acrylic paint.



Painted the chipboards with acrylic paints.





Its a easy project to put together. I hope you will be inspired to create something from my project. Do join us for this month's moodboard challenge.

Have fun. Thanks for dropping by.

June Moodboard Challenge

Hi, everyone. Welcome back to my blog. This month at Off The Rails Scrapbooking we are having a fun moodboard challenge.

I made 2 cards with this moodboard. Created 2 mermaid themes cards.



I watercolor the background with Winsor and Newton watercolor palette. Flicked some white spots with white mist. Stamped and pieced together the mermaid, plants and fishes.





For this card, I drew and hand cut the '"hole" in the diecut frame. Punched smaller holes with circle pouches.



I hope you enjoy my sharing of my cards. Do join us for our moodboard challenge. Have fun.

Mixed Media Canvas

Hi, everyone. This month at Off The Rails Scrapbooking, I made a mixed media canvas with the monthly challenge moodboard.

I used the orange and black colors as base for my canvas.



Orange is not my go-to color so its abit of a challenge for me. Glad that I'm able to create something with it. For more pictures and details do hop over to Off The Rails Scrapbooking and have a look.

"Dreamer, Fly Away" Mixed Media Canvas & 2 Cards

Hi, everyone. Today I'm sharing about 2 cards and a mixed media canvas projects at Off The Rails Scrapbooking. I also did a video tutorial for the mixed media canvas so do hop over to watch. And do join us for our monthly moodboard challenge. I love this month's moodboard. Black & White with a color  of your choice.

"Special Card Reveal"

This month we have a special card reveal at our blog here. I made 2 cards using this month's moodboard.

"Love" Card



One is a easily put together card with stickers and diecut ephemera.





For the inside of the card, I adhered a negative cut out that I saved from a scalloped edge frame diecut.

"Happily Ever After" Card



The other card is inspired by my mixed media canvas. So you can see the similarities in design and color. I painted the butterfly and ornament chipboards with black shimmery acrylic paint. But from the picture can't really see the shimmery.





"Dreamer, Fly Away" Mixed Media Canvas

Finally time to reveal my mixed media canvas....

This will be my last assignment for Off The Rails Scrapbooking this year as I'm taking a half year break. Will be back next year though. Been so busy lately this year as its an important year for my girl in her education. I have to spend more time with her. I will still be crafting on my own but its less of doing it to meet deadline etc...

I will try my best to share about my leisure crafts here during this break but no gurantee... :P

"Recycled" - Off The Rails Scrapbooking

Hi, everyone. It's been a while since I blog.. this month over at Off The Rails Scrapbooking we are having recyling moodboard challenge.

And we have 2 sponsors this month:

Two Sisters Scrapbooking and Papercraft

Darkroom Door

Here's what I have made:

"Reflections" Mixed Media Canvas





Adhered Tim Holtz tissue papers unto canvas. Drew the girl with a pencil and colored with Faber Castell Gelatoes then outlined with black pen.

Inked the Prima resistable canvas flowers and butterflies with distress inks. Done the same with Memory Maze chipboard flowers. Left the Imaginarium Designs chipboard title raw.

I used these recyled materials from my stash: "bricks" from Prima packaging, denim from my boy's old jeans, some resin flowers that I recycled from an old handphone casing, the button and string closure from a spoiled paper folder, clockface from an old watch and chipboard hearts from chipboard negatives.









I adhered the button and string closure and clockface with Liquitex super heavy gel onto the denim strips.



Hope you enjoy my sharing. Do join us for this month's challenge at Off The Rails Scrapbooking. Have fun crafting.
