You Are A Pearl

  • Cut out a small rectangular window on a piece of white cardstock, 270 GSM.
  • I wanted to give it a "sea theme" hence opted for 2 shades of blue distress inks: Mermaid Lagoon and Broken China.
  • Blend them together by giving a darker shade at the bottom and lighter shade at the top.
                                                  




  • Sprint some small water droplets on the card and immediately lift it with a cloth/paper towel, to give it the bleached effect.
  • Stamp the sea shells with Tubby Craft Ink- Sapphire Blue at the base. 






  • For the base card, cover it with Cracked Pistashio Distress ink.
  • Position the Pearl stamp along with the sentiment and stamp it using Tubby Craft Ink- Jet Black.
  • Adding the window just gives your project some more dimension and 3D effect :D





  • Foam mount the pieces...and you have a beautiful sea themed card.
  • This will be a perfect card to gift your mother this Woman Day! :D

Birdhouse Decoupage + Crackle

Namaste crafters! It's summertime..so let's make cute birdhouses for the birds to rest in this summer! This time on my trip to the Itsy Bitsy store, I saw these amazing birdhouses in all sizes and amazing designs..I just couldn't control myself and ended up buying tons of these..they are just too adorable and pretty!! Let's have a step by step look at how I created them! Its complete video will also be uploaded soon next week..just some editing left :)  For all the birdhouses, I have primed them with 2 layers of gesso. Paint the base with white chalk/acrylic paint. Let it dry. Put a layer of 1 step crackle medium from Itsy Bitsy.  Apply thick layer for thicker cracks and thin layer for thinner cracks. Let it dry naturally. You can dry it with a heat tool as well but natural drying gives your project better cracks. I have used crackle mediums of many companies but I personally feel that the 1 step crac

DIY Stencil

Hello crafty friends! Devika here and today I will share how to create your own stencil and make a card using it! You can also follow me on these social media accounts: https://www.facebook.com/houseofillusiondelhi/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNGR6yuGN1tm2HzpwuYQOIA https://www.instagram.com/thehouseofillusion/ THIS BLOGPOST IS WITH A GIVEAWAY!! RULES MENTIONED AT THE END OF THE POST Dreamy Sky  Take a white cardstock. Make a cloud stencil with the masking sheet. Just draw the cloud edges with a pencil on a masking sheet. Cut the sheet along the edges and you will get your own "Cloud stencil."  Now use Sapphire blue ink along the "clouds stencil" and cover the whole background with it. Use Lemon yellow ink through the Rays stencil by Kaisercraft. (If you do not have a Ray's stencil then just place the masking tape on the cardstock with a one finger gap between each ray and thus you can create the stencil also)
