Life is all about Love for ICRCWIN01!

Heya...

Back with my second DT Insight for ICR at ICRCWIN01!

And the theme itself is so enticing that it kept us all hooked for more... However with no supplies at all in hand I was pushed to find something to make a thing for it.... Hence picked a stamp I had used at Sharada's place thankfully at Itsy Bitsy & picked it up along with some ink pads too....


That helped me put a project into the second round of inspiration on ICR this month...

So here is what I made...

HB4U

And was inspired by CAS Colors & Sketches.... for the sketch!
MFT Challenge & Inspiration for colors....
And of course ICRCWIN01 with the theme of Tic Tac Toing A Mandala for twist!

The base is a CS from Craft Creations with a super stack of 12 colors picked from Itsy Bitsy...
The center mandala shape is a stamp from W R Memory Keepers Autum flowers picked from Itsy Bitsy....
That really helped me grow on it to create a larger mandala design thru free hand doodling...
I stamped the sentiment picked up from Itsy Bitsy which shud be from G Studio.... & is beautifully touchy for SOMEONE who is me who is simply in love with the idea of love.... :P WELL! WELL!!
Doodled the flower with its stigma & decorated it with my white signo jell pen....
And stamped the leaves with the very same autumn flowers stamp from W R Memory Keepers....

I played the horizontal center line of the TIC TAC TOE... with finally dabbing the water color around to complete....

There's still time to Tic Tac Toe the Mandala twist for ICRCWIN01.... Play along & have fun setting your spirit free....

UNTIL NEXT, KEEP THE FAITH!!!

Happy Birthday Dad & Bro!

Hello...

It was February & had a birthday following for which I had to cook up something from nothing... hence rushed to Itsy Bitsy & picked up few basics I found in the store & made them & myself happy :D

It felt like I had boarded the time machine which took me back a few years when I had just begun crafting....... Nevertheless, I had bettered with thots to help me figure things out to be laid on the canvas....

Things were just trying hard to get back to normalcy.... & I wanted it to be a happy day for mom & it was.... Touch Wood!

So here is what I made from the basics I had....

You Are My Most Favorite Memory {ICRCWIN01}!

Heya....

Jan just perished & Feb is already running so fast to consume that one extra day this year has blessed it with.... :(

And this post comes in late due to emergencies & exhaustion.... Better late than never to help me finally post my project I was finally able to churn in on time for ICRCWIN01! And all thanks to my team mate on ICR who stayed around & the other team mate who enticed me to get this going by hook or crook.... Here is why!

This month of February has an extra day on its blessed cap & Gopi from the parent team on ICR cooked up this brilliant coasteRide for the month.... So much that I was burning in desire & jealousy for all were having fun with it which I cud not being away from home & thus the supplies.... That being unbearable I decided to dowse it by hopping on to my team mate Sharada Dilip Acharya's place staying around... I had schemed for a CRAFT OVER to work on the lines of an otherwise sleep over fun..... :D She seemed happy to welcome me & generous to let me use her craft supplies....



I had fun visiting her & getting to know her.... V both loved a lengthy yap on our kids & their status & in between managing to finish a project for the challenge ICRCWIN01.... I cooked up the project with her help & she pulled the final strings by clicking it out for me with her tab along with her son... Awwww! he was just so sweet & friendly.... Thanks to you both :)

So here is the current casteRide on ICR tagged ICRCWIN01 hosted by Parent Team member Gopi Patel.... AND THIS IS A SPIRITUAL KILLER!!! I say that 'cuz tht's d kind of challenge she came up with... A regular Tic Tac Toe grid with the focus on MANDALA as the killer twist.... We had never ever thot of it & this raked up all desires to have fun with it.... See it on the story board for ICRCWIN01....



And this is what I was able to finally cook up at her place in her craft room with her supplies.... {Whispers... "Thank You!"}

FAVMEM 
 Mandala was totally new to me & had never even bothered to give it an eye ever till date until this challenge happened.... That made it so exciting & desirable....

I worked with a sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #221....

Since I had to work a mandala & had nothing to really work on, used a teeny weeny stamp she had from W R Memory Keepers Autumn Flowers.... Stamped it on base & grew on it by doodling around.... And then I stamped it again to layer it by fussy cutting it out on the stamped image for a dimension....

Then stamped the sentiment from Technique Tuesday "Favorite Memories"...

Adhered a large button on the letter O for just a feel with a bakery twine tied into a bow...

Used her brush pens to color the doodle as well as the stamped image.... 

Finally I asked her to splash out the water colors to complete the card by working on the Tic Tac Toe Grid to bring the coasteRide to life.... Water Coloring + Love Quote + Button... And she obliged.... Muaah & (((Hugs))) Sharada! You do not know how grateful I am to u for this day way out of my patterned life otherwise.....

FAVMEM 

And there came my yearning desires for the challenging ride to life.... It was fun working on a project with less ideas in a new atmosphere with new supplies not your own.... I wud love to Craft Over more than once in the near future.... 

UNTIL NEXT, KEEP THE FAITH!!!
