<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Let's get started with a step wise tutorial. For this creation, I have used the new 12 x 12 inch paper pack -Sunshine & Lemonade. This paper pack from Itsy Bitsy has lovely pastel shade papers with great designs. </span><br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">First step was to cover the wooden clipboard with chalk paint Teal Tango, love the colour !! As you can see in the picture below, the clipboard has provision to be hanged on the wall. So decided to alter it to a wall hung, utility board.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Once the chalk paint dried, next step was to decoupage a sheet from the Sunshine & Lemonade paper pack. Have done so using Little Birdie's Decomagic Decoupage Glue matte. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Have decoupaged, leaving some border and gaps as seen above. This created a beautiful background for further work. Have sealed the paper with decomagic decoupage glue to prevent it from yellowing over the period of time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To add further interest to the background, I decided to stencil some doily patterns. Did so using 2 in 1 modelling paste, slate colour and stencil Doily Dou.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Have used one of the new released clear stamp -Wonderful Wishes, with black archival ink to do so. Randomly stamped on the board as seen in the picture above.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now is the time to add utility to the board ....have adhered a piece of laced burlap roll, with silicon glue. While doing so, have left a gap to hold a pen. Have a look.</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Next, prepared some tags- one using 2020 calendar printout and another is a ready tag from the paper pack. Decided to make a pocket, to hold these tags. To do so, have cut a small paper piece from the cover page of paper pack. Also fussy cut some elements from the pack.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Calendar tag is very useful for planning. Similarly To- do- list or Notes tag can also be inserted in the pocket, to help organizing.

<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There are many creative options!!!!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Let's get on to knowing the important features of the Decomagic Fabric Decoupage glue, that will help you use the glue.</span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">CONSISTENCY OF THE GLUE-</span></strong></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Little Birdie Decomagic Fabric Decoupage glue has perfect consistency and smooth flow.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The regular all surface decoupage glue has flowy consistency whereas the fabric glue has gel like, creamy consistency. Advantage of this type of consistency is that one can press the paper well with ease at the time of adhering. As a result thin papers like decoupage napkins sit well into the texture of fabric surface, on which they are being decoupaged. Have a look.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The paper sits so well that it looks almost like a part of fabric, like printed on the fabric. This feature is enhanced when the base surface is of fabric with texture or when working on canvas or burlap.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Next the Decomagic fabric glue is very creamy. This gives a very smooth flow, when it is applied as a top coat.</span></div>

<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">STRONG ADHERING PROPERTY-</span></strong></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Decomagic fabric decoupage glue has very good sticking property. This enables to adhere thick fabrics and also fabrics with heavy texture and weaves with ease.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here in the picture below, I have altered a notebook cover using thick, curtain fabric. The fabric stuck in a jiffy with glue.</span></div>

<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">STIFFENING PROPERTY OF THE GLUE-</span></strong></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Decomagic fabric decoupage glue has mild stiffening property. This is a very important feature when it comes to cutting the fabric without fraying.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Sharing two examples here to explain the above-</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1. FABRIC COASTERS- To make fabric coasters, cut a piece of fabric of your choice. Always cut the fabric a little bigger than the size of the wooden piece to be used as base for coaster. Now adhere the cut fabric piece to the wooden circular piece, using fabric decoupage glue. Leave overhangs as seen in the picture below. (picture shows backside of coaster after adhering the fabric).</span></div>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg__I98Z6Gp_mOX4whqe-dqMnu1IBeWWmbwpEk7Owr1XyJt2Ta99z5YFPKFpUyy6hrnyy0_q-jEtGIfger4OT6lLz46ylDKweCk4pPhowrCURvD6zL6kNW8DvZ2ynV-3w8KEJxEAgdaWVRT/s1600/IMG_6728.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="735" data-original-width="1024" height="229" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg__I98Z6Gp_mOX4whqe-dqMnu1IBeWWmbwpEk7Owr1XyJt2Ta99z5YFPKFpUyy6hrnyy0_q-jEtGIfger4OT6lLz46ylDKweCk4pPhowrCURvD6zL6kNW8DvZ2ynV-3w8KEJxEAgdaWVRT/s320/IMG_6728.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now apply fabric decoupage glue on the overhanging fabric. This will stiffen the fabric and as a result you will be able to cut off the excess fabric with scissors without fraying. Also you can sand off the overhangs with medium density sand paper easily without the fabric fraying.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This method gives a wonderful neat finish and the stiffened overhangs makes it easy to achieve the desired result.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Have given a golden acrylic paint edge to the cotton fabric coaster. Also stamped couple of butterflies with black archival ink for interest.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Coming to the second example-</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. ADHERING A FUSSY CUT PIECE OF FABRIC-</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here I had a very thin fabric piece with beautiful flowers. Its very difficult to fussy cut (meaning cut as per exact shape), such a thin fabric. So, first I applied decomagic fabric decoupage glue on small area of the fabric (area from which I wanted to cut flowers) Apply glue on back side of fabric.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfg56KEoU6qXtxaI_3kfOaksw05FP7MY0UV1MbpvtqodCz9Uk4_n00plyacapl3uqDX2_Cg23qPQkx2M6no2pwgPxW80CsKHE2Y7O0UZrEL5WJ9DcZCVNBLTu4JxgvLY3yrofvNKW8ce5W/s1600/IMG_6725.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="959" height="256" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfg56KEoU6qXtxaI_3kfOaksw05FP7MY0UV1MbpvtqodCz9Uk4_n00plyacapl3uqDX2_Cg23qPQkx2M6no2pwgPxW80CsKHE2Y7O0UZrEL5WJ9DcZCVNBLTu4JxgvLY3yrofvNKW8ce5W/s320/IMG_6725.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As a result of applying glue, the fabric stiffened, making it easy to cut shapes from it. This is a great way to create fabric embellishments also !!!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Having cut the flower shapes from the fabric, I adhered them to a fabric pouch, again using the fabric decoupage glue. Have a look.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I love adhering fabric on fabric using this glue. The result is unique. Have also done some stamping to complete the pouch.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: 1rem;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Coming to the most<strong> important feature</strong> of the Decomagic Fabric Decoupage Glue- </span></span></div>
<div>
<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">SEALING PROPERTY- </span></strong></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The glue also works as a sealer meaning it is applied as top coat to seal the adhered piece of paper or fabric. As a result the paper or fabric does not yellow over the period of time.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As a last step, the glue can be applied all over the creation to seal the product and to make it washable. You do not need any additional extra varnish. The Decomagic Fabric Decoupage Glue creates the required protective layer. Apply two coats, covering the entire surface (including the areas where there is any stamping, stenciling or colour blending also ).</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Wash the product only once the applied top, final layer of glue dries completely. Drying time may be more in humid weather. The surface should feel completely dry to touch and not tacky.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Avoid machine wash. Hand wash in cold water is recommended.</span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">SOFTNESS RETAINED-</span></strong></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As mentioned earlier, the glue mildly stiffens the fabric. However, that does not add any unwanted hardness to the product. The fabric products made using the Decomagic Fabric Decoupage Glue retain their fabric feel to a very large extent, even after the entire decoupage work and sealing is done.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Having shared the key features of the product, here's a <strong>quick step wise procedure of making a decoupaged fabric pouch-</strong></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Material required-</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Fabric pouch, decoupage napkins, decomagic fabric decoupage glue, chalk paints, stencils, stencil brush, stamps, archival ink.</span></div>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Above is the picture of three main materials to be used.</span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Procedure-</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1. As the pouch is cream, there is no need to apply any base colour to it. In case of using a darker colour pouch, apply a layer of cream or white chalk paint. This needs to be done if you plan to decoupage it with napkin. As all napkins look good on lighter base.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2. Decide on composition and cut pieces from the napkin.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg379TbQ1ynwAjf-M2z9a0LYg4OravO2NZiNSigFuVNTS87Nrh5t44HWgUh1xD_4vc4VX5tp5q_RdVB67maIghpFVlu5KQNBPNrVGi4xiU0YcCmBuXoemjrQJi_-PQTCX5A67ZbsqgE3WKM/s1600/IMG_6382.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="971" height="253" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg379TbQ1ynwAjf-M2z9a0LYg4OravO2NZiNSigFuVNTS87Nrh5t44HWgUh1xD_4vc4VX5tp5q_RdVB67maIghpFVlu5KQNBPNrVGi4xiU0YcCmBuXoemjrQJi_-PQTCX5A67ZbsqgE3WKM/s320/IMG_6382.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3. The napkins are 2 ply or 3 ply and what you will need is only the top printed layer. So separate the white plain layers, once the napkin is cut into desired parts.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">4. Adhere the top printed layer of cut napkin pieces to the fabric pouch, using Decomagic fabric decoupage glue. Apply the glue with synthetic hair, flat brush. Do not apply too much glue. Use optimal quantity of glue and adhere one piece at a time. Press the napkin well, light handed. The gel like consistency of the fabric glue will help you adhere the napkin well into the texture of the fabric pouch.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">5. Apply a top coat of fabric glue over the adhered napkin pieces after about 15- 20 mins.The fabric glue dries clear. The top coat will make the napkin archival and prevent it from yellowing.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">6. Now is the time to work on the background. Have done stenciling using chalk paints, to create oneness.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Have used stone and geometric patterned stencil. Use stencil brush for good stenciling effect. Have used the chalk paint colours that match the adhered napkin. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Have further stenciled a circular pattern as well with pink chalk paint.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtv1ljpQOCLyoY_sZ4jA39ArhgTAHq9VxTBzLMBC-s-0dQqbVC9Q8FOPiUDuwCsWd77Kcf3R6PohpjTt0RHUTzapZThV2-qMnijoHpI2Q079k8Bdvx2Q8TACNYfYdJ81mKgncxQYsFjQY1/s1600/IMG_6398.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="628" data-original-width="1024" height="196" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtv1ljpQOCLyoY_sZ4jA39ArhgTAHq9VxTBzLMBC-s-0dQqbVC9Q8FOPiUDuwCsWd77Kcf3R6PohpjTt0RHUTzapZThV2-qMnijoHpI2Q079k8Bdvx2Q8TACNYfYdJ81mKgncxQYsFjQY1/s320/IMG_6398.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">7. The final look of the pouch after stamping. Have used Ranger black archival ink and clear acrylic stamps to do so. Have also defined the stone stenciling at the base of pouch with black permanent marker.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ4NwQBZy735hfkmSUxzRsMLoTutNCmdF5ms-CMvbwq97H4pkYqjzrcxKf7hBr5clChWZ7HiHPVEc6_M6Pv251E4buIXDC9TbtUeUcye7WMPNXE9wWycmAADs7ub2MKEQTVGcwHAiANSzx/s1600/IMG_6406.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="765" data-original-width="1024" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ4NwQBZy735hfkmSUxzRsMLoTutNCmdF5ms-CMvbwq97H4pkYqjzrcxKf7hBr5clChWZ7HiHPVEc6_M6Pv251E4buIXDC9TbtUeUcye7WMPNXE9wWycmAADs7ub2MKEQTVGcwHAiANSzx/s320/IMG_6406.JPG" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">8. The last step is to seal the entire surface of pouch with Decomagic Fabric Decoupage Glue, to make it washable. Follow the tips already mentioned earlier, for washing.</span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The pouch is ready for use. Hope you liked the creation and find the post informative. Looking forward to your amazing creations.</span></div>

Hello friends. Hope all are crafting great.</div>

In my post today, I have two decor panels using Little Birdie(Itsy Bitsy )Pearl Drops, in two different ways. The panels make beautiful gifts for special occasions. Have a look!</div>

I have used plain MDF panels of size 8 x 6 inches as my base. A size that’s good to hang and display on an easel as well. You can use canvas too, instead of MDF. </div>

Having done the rope and twine work, it was time to use the wonderful Pearl Drops. I have added the drops at the joints of criss-cross lines. The colour which I chose for this was- Gray Sky. The pearl Drops work as fantastic embellishments. They added so much depth and uniqueness to the panel !!!</div>

To do the inlay work, I have used the Pearl Drops. Filled the gaps, created by the chipboard shape, with 4 colours of Pearl Drops. The effect was very unique.<span style="background-color: transparent;"> </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello friends...Hope all are crafting great !!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Sharing today my Desin Team post for Itsy Bitsy. It is also my inspirational post for their current month's Blog Challenge, where you can make -'Anything with the brand's newly launched Metallic Waxes'. I completely enjoyed using them and have crafted a coordinated set of tissue box and cutlery stand. This table decor involves both mixed media and decoupage techniques, giving it a dual look. Do read till the end to see different, interesting views of the creation.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><strong>About metallic waxes- </strong>The metallic waxes, available in awesome colours are used for adding shine and rich, metallic finish to various surfaces like wood, paper, clay, glass, fabric etc. They work great when you need to highlight textures. You can add a touch of colour with them as well, using a soft brush. They create a water resistant surface after drying.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Using waxes obviously meant creating textures. Itsy Bisty has a wide range of mixed media supplies. So many choices to create amazing textures and this is overwhelming. Finally I decided to work with another wonderful product....a product that is not explored much - <strong>Fabric Stiffener</strong>. I love this product from the store and have used it in the past, in my decoupage projects as well. This time, have used it to create texture and add dimension to the plain wooden bases. </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">To know how follow the link <a href="https://blog.itsybitsy.in/mixed-media-coordinated-table-decor-with-metallic-waxes/" target="_blank">here</a>. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The procedure for the cutlery holder is same as the tissue box. Have given it a dual look as well with mix media and decoupage. Here it is - </span></div>

This is the first time I am sharing a layout and it is one with decoupage !!! </div>

I have made this 12 x 12 inch layout using decoupage technique and watercolour embellishments. Hope you are excited to see how a scrapbook layout can be decoupaged and can be a great party decor piece as well !!!</div>

Once the canvas was ready, it was time to give the canvas a backdrop and make it a part of the layout. So, I mounted it on a thick 12 x 12 inch chipboard. Decoupaged a grey wood grain paper from the paper pack ‘Cottage Lace’ on the chipboard. Further created some layers with a pink polka dot paper (with distressed edges ) and green burlap sheet. For firmness and ease of cutting, I used burlap sheet from the store that comes with a backing.</div>

Party decoration is incomplete without a banner. So added one to the layout. To make the banner, I have used three triangular watercolour pieces from the banner pack. Decoupaged them with small napkin pieces from my stash. Have done colour blending around the napkin, using distress inks for oneness</div>

<span style="text-align: start;">Will be exploring the watercolour embellishments, in the next post as well. For now let me quickly take you though my creations using the mandala stencil. The mandala decor stencils from Itsy Bitsy are huge, overall 14 x 14 inch (mandala – 12 x 12 inch ), available in 4 beautiful designs. They can be used to design various decor products like wall pieces, lamp shades, clocks, cushion covers, on furniture and so on. However, it is not necessary to use the stencil as a whole. There are smaller elements within the design that can be used on smaller surfaces as well, making the product versatile. Have used the stencil design – Glamour Bloom.</span></div>

Hello friends…Hope all are crafting great !!!! </div>

I am very excited to share my creations using Itsy Bitsy's home brand, Little Birdie’s Craft Cement. The post is also my Design team post for Itsy Bitsy. Being an architect, have learnt all about cement and concrete, but never worked hands on with it. So in the middle of my excitement and concerns, ended up working on two projects …what if one cracks ???</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px;">
To my happiness both the projects turned out great….no cracks and perfect unmolding. Craft Cement is a great material to create decor products with organic look. Have created two home decor products – a soap dispenser and a key holder. </div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: left;">Working with cement can be addictive. Had learned about cement concrete reinforcement. Reinforcement is used when casting larger cement structures like columns, beams etc. Also used for shaping to create cement sculptures. Wanted to give it a try in a smaller way here and this gave shape to the next home decor piece – a key holder, for which I have used steel wire mesh as reinforcement. Wire mesh is easily available in any local hardware shop.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I had great fun working with mix media products, in this project. Have a video tutorial explaining the detailed process, that I completely enjoyed....Also it explains effects and uses of different mix media mediums.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here's the <a href="https://youtu.be/PfiO4w7ESKo" target="_blank">Link</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Recently, Itsy Bitsy added wonderful wooden bases from Ac Moore and they are a treat for a crafter like me, who loves altering objects and make utility products. So this time, it was altering the pinewood bird house to make a table lamp. Wanted to give the house a rustic look. The wonderful mix media mediums, worked great to get the desired effect. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Colouring done through colour wash and dry brushing technique. Have used different <strong>Chalk Paint</strong> colours to do so, maintaining the colour scheme as grey, yellow, blue and green.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I wanted to add more dimension and depth to the house ....create more space for the birds to perch....more the merrier !!! To do so, I have used some general craft supplies. Cut them to the desired size and adhered them to the bird house, using <strong>heavy gel medium</strong> <strong>matte</strong>. Created a balanced composition with the elements.</span><br />

Have you tried reverse image transfer? It’s very interesting to work with image transfer technique on the reverse side of transparent surfaces !</div>
<div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Here, I have used Little Birdie Two Step Cackle Medium and stenciling work along with reverse image transfer technique to make this decor plate. So let’s get started…..</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
I have altered a plain, circular glass plate approx 7.5 inch in diameter. The plate was not being used much and I saw a wonderful scope for a great makeover. Glass plates of different sizes and shapes are easily available in any local glassware shop. It’s very important to clean the plate properly before you start working, making sure that there are no finger marks or glue marks from sticky labels. Soaking in warm, soap water helps in removing labels with ease.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
As we are doing reverse image transfer… the work needs to be done on the back/reverse side of the glass plate. I started working on the edges of the plate first. Have done stenciling using Little Birdie chalk paint – Whipped Seafoam and the stencil ‘Feathery Leaves’ with a Mont Marte stencil brush.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">Tip-</span> Using a stencil brush gives crisp stenciling. Make sure you do not add water to the paint and the brush is dry too.</div>

Next step was to work with the 2 step crackle medium to get a crackled effect on the edges, over the stenciled area. Two step crackle medium, as the name suggest has two steps – applying the base coat medium and applying the top coat medium. The reaction between the two mediums creates transparent cracks, that are highlighted with the colour of one’s choice. Remember there is no layer of paint applied between the two coats.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
First, I have applied the base coat with a synthetic hair flat brush, using a dab method of application. The base coat is milky in appearance. Have a look below….</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

It can be speed dried with a hair dryer after about 1/2 hr of natural drying. The base coat dries clear. It feels tacky even after drying. That’s completely fine. Basically the milky look should turn clear as you see in the picture below.</div>

Now, is the time to apply the top coat. The top coat is a transparent medium. The top coat has to be applied with a dab method of application and allowed to dry naturally. Do not speed dry at this stage. As the top coat dries, the cracks will form automatically.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">Tip-</span> The thickness of top coat determines the size of cracks. Thicker coat gives larger cracks and vice versa.</div>

The stenciling done is seen through the crackled area. So basically the two step crackled medium is used when you want cracks over a painted/ stenciled/ decoupaged or any given finished surface, such that you see the finished surface through the cracks. Hope this explains the process about how it works.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
The cracks are transparent and need to be highlighted with oil/acrylic paints. I have used gold oil paint and gently applied it over the crackled surface with a soft cloth. The paint will get inside the cracks. The excess should be wipe off with a clean piece of soft cloth.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">Tip-</span> Work in small areas at a time. Do not use damp cloth.</div>

I have taken a laser printout of the image in the required size so that it fits in the center of the glass plate. Trimmed the extra white areas around the quote and transferred the image, using Little Birdie Instant Image Transfer Gel….a wonderful product from Itsy Bitsy’s home brand</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">You can see some random marks of the transfer medium around the quote. That will be seen. Either you can play with it in your creation or do not trim the extra white areas, meaning in this case, use the entire circular image. Once a background colour is given, it looks fine.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Libre Franklin", "Helvetica Neue", helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">It’s reverse image transfer so the steps are reverse. First transfer the image and then apply the base colour. Whereas when working from front, first apply the base colour and then transfer the image. </span>It’s an interesting concept that I enjoyed exploring. I hope you give it a try too.</div>

Next step is to bring in colours. I have done some colour blending using chalk paints on the edges of the plate.</div>

<span style="text-align: start;">At this stage, I liked it the way it was and did not want to add any colours in the center. You can add colours of your choice in the center if you wish. So finally decided to just give it a backing with burlap sheets, and bring in a textured effect. Burlap sheets from the store come with backing. They are one of my favorite product.</span></div>

<span style="text-align: start;">Had altered the stenciling a bit while working to get the correct composition. Finally added gold paint to the rim and embellished the plate with beautiful handmade flowers and a pre-primed chipboard. All the embellishments and burlap sheet are adhered using silicon glue…again one of my favourites! Silicon glue helps to stick all materials with ease.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello everyone....hope all are doing great....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I am extremely happy to share that I will be continuing as design team member of Itsy Bitsy. This post is my first design team post in the new term. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Itsy Bitsy has recently launched Instant Image Transfer Gel. As the name suggest, the recently launched transfer gel is <strong>Instant</strong>...which means now you do not have to wait for hours together to get the image transferred. The magic of transfer happens in just 5-10 mins. Isn't that great !!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The instant image transfer gel is great to transfer both coloured and black and white images. It has good consistency and adhering property. I have created Desk Decor pieces - a clipboard desk calendar and a stationary holder to enhance the desk space....a beautiful working space is always a delight !!!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In my last post on photo/image transfer, (image transfer and photo transfer means the same) I have shared how to do image transfer on various surfaces like wood, metal, glass, fabric. Here's the <a href="https://craftexpressblog.blogspot.com/2018/05/photo-transfer-on-different-surfaces.html" target="_blank">link</a> to that. This time lets explore various backgrounds. For this it's important to understand the basic concept of image transfer and the difference between image transfer and decoupage.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">WHEN IS IMAGE TRANSFER DONE ???</span></strong></div>
<ol>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To create personalized products, eg- products with personal pictures, artwork.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To create printed look on surfaces, such that there is no thickness of paper popping out.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To create products, where light needs to pass through image like lamps, votives etc.</span></li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IMAGE TRANSFER AND DECOUPAGE -</span></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Decoupage is adhering paper on a given surface, using decoupage glue. Once the paper is adhered, you no longer see the background of the surface, where paper is adhered. On the other hand image transfer is adhering paper, face down on a given surface, using image transfer medium. Later layers of paper are removed to see the image. Only the print on the paper gets transferred to the surface and as a result you see the background of the surface as well. To put it up simply, you get a printed look and there is no thickness of paper popping out.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hence in image transfer the background is very important. Choosing the right background or creating interesting backgrounds for image transfer can help you achieve the printed look and this post focuses exactly on that.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Have step wise picture tutorials of the desk decor pieces, made using the transfer technique and as mentioned above have created backgrounds for the transfer in the creations. Sharing the link <a href="https://blog.itsybitsy.in/desk-decor-image-transfer-on-different-backgrounds/" target="_blank">here</a></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">And now there is something more to the desk space !!!! Have made a stationary holder, using the wooden bucket bag from the store. This beautiful piece is a great buddy to the desk calendar.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The bucket bag is made of light colour wood and the mild wood grains are seen. So, I left one side of the bag natural...the way it is and transferred an image with quote,' Enjoy the Little Things' on it. It looked printed and elegant as the natural wood is seen. Have a look.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">On the other side of the bag, I have created a crackled finish using crackle paste from the store and then transferred the image on it . Its very unique to see the cracks through the transferred image. A quick procedure for this background. The white crackle paste can be applied with spatula directly or through stencils as well. Thicker layer gives bigger cracks and thinner gives smaller. The cracks are formed as the paste dries naturally. Do not speed dry with any tool.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello friends. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hope everyone is crafting great !!! Today's project is an extension to my last creation - Decoupaged Candle with Embossing Texture Paste effects. The beautiful candle needed an equally beautiful space for display....and that brought in the idea of creating a platter for it, which would also work as a center piece for the table !!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Handmade Succulents from Itsy Bitsy have always been on my wish list...So the next thought as I developed the idea was to use the beautiful succulents to decorate the platter and make a 'Succulent Platter' with space for candle. The platter definitely creates a happy, warm corner at home and makes a perfect decor piece for the upcoming festive season !!!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Have used embossing texture paste in different ways in this platter. The embossing texture paste creates lovely textures, which compliment the succulents and of course the decoupaged candle.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have recycled a fiber frame, (that came as part of fancy packaging for dryfruits) to make the platter. The size of platter is 11 x 8.5 inch. You can recycle any old tray/ frame or even work on reverse of a frame canvas to make the platter. The frame that I recycled had some self textures on it. In case you are working on a plain surface then you can create textures using fiber paste or grainy texture paste from the store. I have a video tutorial explaining the process of making the platter, along with helpful information regarding embossing texture paste, which is available in 12 beautiful colours.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello friends. Hope all of you are doing great. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Today's post is very special to me as I am sharing my first craft video tutorial with everyone. I am grateful to each one of you for showering so much love and support to my blog posts and appreciating the the content shared in the step wise picture tutorials. Hoping that you will enjoy my video tutorial and find it useful as well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">With the upcoming festive season, candles make a great gifting option. Today's post is about decoupage on candles and adding interesting effect to it with embossing texture paste. It is also my Design Team post for Itsy Bitsy- inspiration for the current month blog challenge where anything goes with embossing texture paste.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have used embossing texture paste from Itsy Bitsy's own brand 'Little Birdie', to add interest to the otherwise simple decoupaged candle. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Some important features of embossing texture paste- </b></span></div>
<ol>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Embossing texture paste comes in 12 different colours, in wide mouth jars for ease of use.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It is a thick paste that can be applied through stencils or directly.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You can use it with palette knife or brush.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It is a heat embossing texture paste which means that the paste bubbles up to give a frothy/ puffed effect , when exposed to heat, using a heat gun. Hair dryer does not do the job.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The embossing texture paste can be used on all surfaces like wood, metal, glass, ceramic, paper, fabric, terracotta etc.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The paste is not washable, however it is water resistant when dry. It adheres to the surface permanently, once heat set. Does not come off.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The amount of bubbling / puffing of paste is proportionate to the thickness of paste applied and to the amount of heat/ time of heat, it is exposed to. More the thickness of paste applied, bigger will be the texture created and apply less thickness of paste for finer texture. Similarly, more the heat time, more will be the bubbling up and vice versa.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Once the embossing paste is heat set to create the texture, it dries instantly and can be further coloured with acrylic paints or colour sprays.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">When the embossing texture paste is heat set, the colour of paste lightens to a large extent.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The embossing paste is used to add textures and give further depth and dimension to the project. It is a great way to create a moss effect or a frosty, snow effect with ease.</span></li>
</ol>

<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A bit about Decoupage on Candle- </span></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There are different ways of working on candles. Here I have decoupaged on candle, using decoupage napkins. I have used a white, cylindrical, pillar candle that was lying with me. You can use candle of any shape and size. Itsy Bitsy has a wide range of candle making supplies for those who like to make their own candles. Have used decoupage napkin named, 'Herbal Shelf' , from the store. Many beautiful designs are available in the decoupage craft category of the store. Basically the idea is to set the napkin into the candle, using a heat tool. With the heat tool, the wax melts, allowing the napkin to adhere to the candle. Decoupage glue is not used for this work.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you do not have a heat tool, you can use a hair dryer or iron for the process. However heat tool makes the process much easier and gives better results.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Tips for using Embossing Texture Paste on Candles-</span></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 1rem;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have used, embossing texture paste (colour - Berry Bliss) on candle, as this colour goes well with the colours in the decoupage napkin used. The embossing texture paste needs to be used with a little care on the candle, as when the paste is exposed to heat, the candle wax also melts . So do not use the heat tool continuously, stop or take it away in between. Else the wax may melt too much, distorting the shape of candle. Also when using the embossing paste on top edge of candle, the wax melts and drips down on the already decoupaged napkin. Wipe that off immediately.</span></span></div>

For the clock, I have used the fabric stiffener to stiffen the cloth. This helped the cloth to remain firm and the clock machine could be fixed to the cloth with ease. I am so thankful to Itsy Bitsy’s own brand Little Birdie for making this wonderful product.</div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I had a </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 1rem;"> mason jar lying at my home with a broken lid and was no longer in use, however it had many makeover possibilities. I altered it to make a beautiful table lamp, using decoupage technique and the recently launched, new thin cut dies of Itsy Bitsy. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 1rem;">The altered jar is my DT creation for Itsy Bitsy and you can view the step wise picture tutorial for the same <a href="https://blog.itsybitsy.in/smile-spreads-brightness-an-altered-mason-jar-lamp-with-thin-cut-dies/" target="_blank">here</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello everyone...Hope all are crafting great !!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I completely enjoy decoupage and its always great to explore new ways of using this craft technique. Most of us know about various mediums used for mix media. Modelling paste and texture paste are widely used mediums to create textures. In my creation, I have used modelling paste to give depth and dimension to the otherwise flat decoupage work.....</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Today's post is about different techniques that can be done with chalk paints. These techniques help to create beautiful backgrounds for decoupage, mix media or any other craft form that you enjoy. I have used new bright chalk paints from Itsy Bitsy and mdf (wooden) pieces to demonstrate six techniques !!!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here's some useful information about chalk paints.</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Chalk paints are acrylic paints with a chalky matte finish. No stickiness at all. This makes them great for furniture, box edges ...no jamming of lids, drawer edges etc with them.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They can be used on all surfaces, directly without applying gesso.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They have a great coverage and are fast drying.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They can be mixed with each other to get different shades. Once dry they can be layered with other colours.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They can be mixed with gel mediums, texture paste , retarders and other mediums as well.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">They can be easily sanded to get a further smooth finish and oppositely to get distressed look.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Great for dry brushing.</span></li>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello friends...Hope everyone is doing great. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As you know I love creating decor products. Today I would be sharing a decor piece made using decoupage and mix media techniques. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hope you like it as much as I enjoyed making it !!!! I have experimented with many new craft products in this creation.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The creation is also my DT post for Itsy Bitsy, as an inspiration for their monthly blog challenge - where anything goes using the new happy bright chalk paints.</span><br />

The orange chalk paint colour depicts the bright Gulmohar flowers and the grey background are the grey clouds that cover the sky as the monsoons begin here as well..... so here is a HAPPY HOME under the shade of Gulmohar tree....whose branches gently sways with the music of monsoons !!!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello everyone.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Happy to be writing today about a wonderful technique -Photo Transfer also known as Image Transfer !!!! Yes its indeed transferring your imaginations, memories and creating beautiful treasures from them....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have done photo transfer on various surfaces, like metal, glass, wood , fabric and chipboard, using the recently launched photo transfer medium from Itsy Bitsy. The photo transfer medium has perfect consistency and gives wonderful results, when done systematically with loads of patience. Try it once and am sure you will enjoy the process... Its pretty addictive as well....so have many projects to share... Let's get started !!!!</span><br />

<strong><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></strong>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have photo transferred a black and white image on to a coaster size, mdf piece to create a magnet. To create interest, I have adhered chipboard bricks from the store to the mdf square piece using silicon glue. Next I painted the whole surface with chalk paint frozen ice. When completely dry, I transferred a black and white image. Interestingly, the white areas got completely eliminated while rubbing the paper layers. <strong>That's a great feature of the photo transfer medium from Itsy Bitsy. You can see the background colour (in this case blue) through the white areas and the design in black seems almost printed.</strong></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For the final touches, I highlighted the chipboard lines with silver gel pen and embellished with paper twine and flower. Also distressed the edges with black chalk paint. Isn't that </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">cool !!!! Not to forget that for all the creations, I have sealed the transferred image with photo transfer medium and varnished the entire product with decor varnish for further protection.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello friends. Hope everyone is doing great !!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Today I have a decoupage project to share with a step wise picture tutorial .</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Each time , I decoupage a tray, I always think as to how else can a simple serving tray be used. This time, I have converted it to a decor piece which tells you time, date, holds a message and a bunch of keys. And of course enhances the wall space in style …..</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello everyone. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hope all of you are doing great. Today's post is about one of the most interesting aspect of decoupage ....</span><strong style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Reverse Decoupage !!!!</strong><br />
<strong style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></strong>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Reverse - the word made me visit moments down the memory lane.....the lovely childhood days and vacation times !!!! It's this time of the year when it is school holidays in most parts of India and mason jars at homes are filled with sour raw mangoes and tamarinds.....An opportunity to engage in some naughtiness....sneak into the kitchen and grab some delicacies, as the mother takes an afternoon nap. I am sure many of us can relate to this !!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My creation today.....An acrylic photo frame with reverse decoupage depicts one such simple, naughty childhood moment.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I completely enjoyed the process of reverse decoupage and the crackle effect seen through the transparent surface is amazing. If you wish to give this technique a try do visit my Design Team post on Itsy Bitsy blog <a href="http://blog.itsybitsy.in/wp-admin/post.php?post=22005&action=edit" target="_blank">here</a>. I have a detailed step wise picture tutorial of the acrylic photo frame. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Crackle medium and reverse decoupage compliment each other wonderfully. I also made an acrylic coaster size magnet using reverse decoupage technique. This time I have used two step crackle medium and have step wise images of its procedure as well on the above link.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello everyone </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Kitchen is that room in the home where food is cooked....is it that simple.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It is said that the thoughts with which food is cooked, makes a lot of difference to our health. Food cooked with positive thoughts and love makes all the difference. It is rightly said</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">" KITCHEN IS THE HEART OF THE HOME " </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Sharing today handmade decor products, that enhance the kitchen space and make it inviting....and not to forget they have an attached utility as well !!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Shapes are very important to me, when I design. The chopping board shape is very interesting and apt for a kitchen decor. I have used it in various ways...to create a message/ reminder board, accessory holder and a wall clock.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hello friends </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am sure that with that with the start of the new year, you would have bought new diaries and planners ....they come across as gifts as well. Sharing today a picture tutorial to add a handmade touch to the plain diary cover and making it interesting to use....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have used mix media technique for this alteration.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Step- 1 Start working on the front cover of the diary </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZSaoaGYWFohZEOHbRaFKWcZl8UqEF7D09UG1owVdvg_TY6Xr4tuDYtN9MccXksOQBZ4IuDJ0HhTl_D4VcToYV1XuJ30Zi3MaKkBeiZdcSsK0vIYys9j5ZdxrZt-2tLnjaJJtFuOCiPA-p/s1600/IMG_8394.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1269" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZSaoaGYWFohZEOHbRaFKWcZl8UqEF7D09UG1owVdvg_TY6Xr4tuDYtN9MccXksOQBZ4IuDJ0HhTl_D4VcToYV1XuJ30Zi3MaKkBeiZdcSsK0vIYys9j5ZdxrZt-2tLnjaJJtFuOCiPA-p/s320/IMG_8394.JPG" width="253" /></a></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Step-2 Here you can add any die cuts, handmade paper, laces, trims available with you. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: justify;">Step -3 Add textures with modelling paste. I have used Mont Marte modelling paste. This is to create effects in the background.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Step -4 Now its time to glue variety of embellishments. Use up things from your stash rather than purchasing stuff from the market. At this stage, composition is very important. Arrange the embellishments to create a good form and define a focal point.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
