Here is the RAKHI STYLE CARD that i created:

To create my Rakhi style card, i have used @craftyscrappers stamp set

HAPPY RAKHI

I choose a 6inch doilie for my card.to make my card base i have used a thick card board,drew the outline of the doilie and cut the shape.I have cut the card base a little bigger than the doile so that i will a little border when i stick the doilie.

To prime my card have applied a coat of white gesso,and let it dry.choose the hearts stencil from craftyscrappers to add texture.spread the modelling paste through the stencil and as it was still wet i sprinkled some texture sand over it.

HERE’S A CLOSER LOOK:

used the shimmer sprays to add color.have used sweet pumpkin ,dancing peacock , sweet sunshine,lushy orchid shimmer sprays.used the shimmer sprays by spraying and alternating the colors and drying them inbetween layers till i was happy with the coloring.to highlight the textures did some dry brushing with white gesso and i was done with my coloring part.

The final step was to add the embelishments.using the Happy Rakhi stampset,stamped the image of the sentiment, rakhi image and the sweets using black archival ink

colored them with color pencil and fussy cut them.used white acrylic paint and the ocean wave shimmer spray to color my chipboard and finally assembled all the elements using some hot glue.
