all using Craftyscrappers amazing shimmer sprays and stamp set called
This is such a beautiful stamp set, that when i first received it i couldn’t get my eyes off it.
The quality of Craftyscrappers stamps are superb and so as their designs.
Each month they come up with such beautiful variation, whether it be their critters stamp collection or amazingly designed background and border stamp sets or basic themed and mixed media stamp sets, they have it all and are still increasing the number.
the best thing is that, these designs are hand drawn and hand lettered by our indian artists/illustrators and are manufactured right here in india 🙂 Craftyscrappers not only provide stamp sets at an economical price but all their products are at economic price range.
They put forward so much effort and mind in bringing the best in the crafting world,
keeping in mind the various needs of the crafters and their affordability.
I have also used craftyscrappers gorgeous stencil,
I just love this “Rangoli stencil” These beautiful and high quality stencils,will help you to create amazing backgrounds
or highlights on your projects.These stencils comes in a trendy package of 8x8inches and have a 6.5×6.5INCH in size,
working area which makes it easier for you to twist and turn the stencils according to your work surface.
And the most incredible thing about them is, they are pocket friendly.
And craftyscrappers, the most versatile shimmer sprays

List of Supplies:
- Art journal or any blank page
- Stencil-rangoli
- Texture paste
- Stamp set – A walk to remember
- Shimmer sprays
(Muddy pool, Rusty denim, Ocean waves, Sweet sunshine, Dancing peacock) - Acrylic paint (Black and white)
A Brief tutorial
- On a blank page I created texture using stencil called “RANGOLI” randomly
- I created horizon line using black acrylic paint in the middle of page so that it will be easier to have reflected image. I also created horizontal and vertical lines using palate knife to give abstract look to whole page.
- I sprayed the amazing and sparkly having different shades of Shimmer sprays, starting from edges of page I used “Muddy pool” And on horizon lines used “Rusty denim”, “Ocean waves”, “Sweet sunshine”, “Dancing peacock” I sprayed vertically.
- Next I stamp the image from stamp set called “A walk to remember” and colored it using diluted acrylic paints, you can use watercolors or markers or any medium that you are comfortable with.
- Now the fun part, I stamped the same image on Mirror stamp set and used that stamp set on page to have mirror image, I didn’t stamp exact whole image because I wanted to have that image incomplete and to blend in the background and have abstract look to it.
- To finish the page I Added Butterfly and beautiful quote from the same stamp set and distress the edges of page using black ink pad.
