Letterbox Cum Key Holder

Hello  my dear lovely crafty friends, Welcome back to my blog. 


A very warm good morning to you all. Hope everyone is good. What's on your craft table today?? 


I hope you guys are not getting bored by my blog post these days because these I'm coming back to back with lots of blog post so.


Today I'm sharing a mixed media letterbox cum key holder with you guys.



This letterbox comes in parts and we have to assemble it using strong glue. It has a locking system where we put glue. After assembling I coloured whole letterbox using blue chalk paint from iCraft and the letterbox base is from Letsgetcraftin. Both are an Indian brand. After the chalk paint dried, I started to adhere the floral arrangements on it. I coloured the pearl floral elements using same blue which I used for letterbox. Next I started doing dry brushing using White chalk paint, gold and copper metallic chalk paints from iCraft. After dry brushing, I did stencilling at few places and finished it of by adding key hooks at the bottom. 


Hope you like it. Please do leave me feedback so that I can improve myself more. 


Happy Crafting and Stay Safe.

Floral Pink Tissue Box

Hello my dear lovely crafty friends, Welcome back to my blog. 


A very warm good morning to you all. How is the weather at your place. Here I'm frying in this hot summer weather like a fish.


Today I'm back again with decoupage work and this time I did it on a tissue box.




First I gave a coat of light pink chalk paint all over the tissue box and let it air dry. After it dried I took a dark shade of pink chalk paint and did dry brushing all the 4 sides of the tissue box and bottom also and let it to dry. Took same dark pink shade and coloured the top of the box and inside of the box also. Let it dry. Next I took few iCraft decoupage floral cutout and started to adhere it on 3 sides of the box and on the top of the box. Gave a coat of decoupage glue on the floral cutout and butterflies and let it dry completely. After drying I gave a 2 coats of glossy varnish and let it dry completely. 


Hope you like it. Please do leave me feedback so that I can improve myself more.

Snow People

Hello  my dear lovely crafty friends. Welcome back to my blog.

A very warm good evening from India. How are you all doing?? Hope everyone is safe.


Today on My Time To Craft Christmas Challenge blog we have an awesome theme "Snow People" for this fortnight. 

I have created an single page art journal for the challenge. 



I created the background using only stencilling and distress oxides. Here I have used 3 types of stencil from iCraft. For focal point I have used transfer me sheet from Dress My Craft. Kept it very simple and clean.


Hope you like it. Please do leave me feedback so that I can improve myself more.
