SHABBY CHIC CARD AND TAG: a brief tutorial!

hi friends!
This is vani here and i m back at craftyscrappers blog with beautiful shabbychic card
and tag using the amazing fun foils, shiny shimmer pastes and fabulous shimmer sprays and off course with the beautiful peacock feather stencil.

Before starting with the tutorial ,
let me tell you… that Craftyscrappers challenges will start from the month of october’2017
so gear up to share your beautiful creations to win exciting craftyscrappers goodies…

Now.. lets talk a little about the supplies that i have used.

This is the first time i have used fun foils
To create both of my projects i have used, the SIZZLING SILVER fun foil.

these fun foils are super shiny and are of professional grade .
They work well with any lamination machine available,
if you want to heat transfer using these super shiny foils or
they can also be used with Big shot and Cuttlebug machines, where you do not need heat to transfer the foils… which is great!!! since many of us do not have lamination machines at home, Craftyscrappers also have launched, the fun foil glue, that works perfectly with these fun foils.They come in 16 gorgeous colors to chose from as well.

Then i also used the amazing and one of a kind shimmer paste, that stand out from the rest of the products in the market.
The shimmer pastes that i used for the projects are

SHIMMER PASTE-BUTTER

and

SHIMMER PASTE-TICKLED.

These shimmer pastes add a fabulous layer of shimmer and shine to any craft project and you can use any kind of stencils with these shimmer paste to create beautiful sparkling details and add the touch of beauty to any card, scrapbook or mixed media.
The best thing about them is that these can be used on paper, cardboard,chipboard,acetate, wood, glass,mdf,fabric and even on layered stencils.
These shimmer paste r so smooth and so shiny… that i love to work with it and the results are super-duper awesome.

To create my artwork. i have also used the shimmer sprays.
The shimmer sprays that i have used for my projects are :

SHIMMER SPRAY-GRAPE JUICE

AND

SHIMMER SPRAY-SWEET PUMPKIN

The colors of these shimmer sprays are so intense and beautiful that you will fall in love with it.

Here’s a look at the completed tag and card:

A BRIEF TUTORIAL ON SHABBY CHIC CARD:

First, i took a white card stock and then i stuck brown pattern paper with the help of crafty glue that was send in my dt kit.
After that i applied another white pattern paper on the brown card stock, to create layers.
after that i placed the Peacock feathers stencil over my working area and secured it with the help of the masking tape.then applied the beautiful.. shimmer paste on it.
The shimmer paste that i have used here is called- TICKLED
and added some more pattern paper and shimmer paper on top of it.Then I decorate my card with some mulberry flowers and charms and applied some glitter glue on both the sides of the card.
And thus finished with my shabBy chic card.

Here’s my second project, which is a tag…

A BRIEF TUTORIAL ON SHABBY CHIC CARD:

First i took a plain white tag and distressed it with two inks.
After that i placed the peacock feather stencil on it with the help of masking tape and then i sprayed grape juice shimmer spray on the half part of the tag and let it dry.
Once dried i sprayed sweet pumpkin shimmer spray on the rest of the tag.
Once everything was dried, i applied the shimmer paste “butter” on the top and the bottom of the tag.
after that i applied double side tape on the sides of the tag and used the fun foil with the tape and rubbed it smoothly.
Finally i removed the left over foil sheet and i was done.
it looked so amazing and beautiful!!!
Lastly i applied some mulberry flowers and stones in the center of the tag and finally i took a die cut and stamp a sentiment on it and placed it on the tag with the help of a foam tape.
