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.

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....





Do hop over to Off The Rails Scrapbooking for more closed up pictures and my video tutorial.

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

To celebrate this awesome event, I have created this project using Lindy's Stamp Gang Sprays in Canna Lily Burnt Orange, Opal Sea Oats and Magical Powders (Ramblin' Rose Pink & Screamin' Banshee Black) and Imaginarium Designs Chipboards.

"Beautiful Smile"

To create the background, I spread texture paste over stencils then misted with Lindy's Starburst Sprays (Opal Sea Oats & Canna Lily Burnt Orange).

For the swirl chipboards, I gesso it and painted with the Magical Powders (both Ramblin' Rose Pink & Screamin' Banshee Black)

For the title chipboard, I gesso it and paint with Lindy's Magical Powder Screamin' Banshee Black and ink edges with black soot distress ink. For the butterfly chipboard, I also gesso it and a light coat of mixture of Magical Powders (Ramblin' Rose Pink & Screamin' Banshee Black). Added crystals to it.

Mat all the papers and photos with black caradstock. Love how they pop out.

Hope you love my project. Now hop over to Caroline Elliam. Have fun.

Off The Page Projects

Hi, everyone. Today I want to share 2 off the page projects that I made for Imaginarium Designs.

"Halloween"



I'm not a Halloween person even though I'm born on Halloween. LOL.. We don't celebrate it either. And gory type of Halloween creeps me, this timid lady.. So I made a cute version of a Halloween miniature scene with a box I found at Daiso.



"Fairytale Ending"



Love fairy themed projects. So yet again I made a fairy "house" mixed media canvas. Loved Imaginarium Designs chipboards. The window chipboards gives me so much inspiration for miniature projects.



For more details and pictures of both my projects, do hop over to Imaginarium Designs. And please do leave some comments. If you would to purchase some chipboards, do hop over to Seriously Scrapbooking. Thanks.

Thanks for dropping by.

"Beautiful" Art Journal Page

Hello. Over at Off The Rails Scrapbooking, I want to share with you a very simple art journal page.

"Beautiful"



For my recent art journal page, I have been experimenting with Distress Crayons. And I love them. For this page, I used them on the background and the 2 roses. For more details, please hop over to Off The Rails Scrapbooking.

I hope to be able to do more art journal pages as I have been neglecting them for quite awhile. Wanted to do more pages to express my inner thoughts and ideas. And I want to do simple and easy put together pages so it won't get too overwhelming for me.

Thats all for today. Please do join us at Off The Rails Scrapbooking for our October Halloween Moodboard Challenge.

Thanks for dropping.

"Strike A Pose"

Hi, everyone. This month at Imaginarium Designs we are creating Masculine Projects with chipboards.

"Strike A Pose"



I created a not so masculine white themed layout of my boy tho. Was contemplating whether to leave out the flowers but decided to just add in to show that this picture is taken at Sungei Buloh Nature Reserve in Singapore.



For the background, I spread texture paste over a stencil and distress ink over another stencil for the plants.



I cut the chipboard rectangles into half, gesso over to resemble the wooden plank path in the photo. Painted the fence and title chipboards with acrylic paints. For the tiny star chipboards, I painted them gold and added glitter.



Red is my boy's favourite color. So wanted to leave the page plain to make the red more outstanding. Love how my boy can pose in different postures so easily and readily. Everyone was always saying how obedient and well behaved my boy is.... oh well.. here you can see his cheeky side.. LOL...





Here's the chipboards I have used:
