Bridal Shower- Photo Booth/ Picture Frame

Hey eveyone
I am back with another Bridal shower product. I have been working on decorations for a Bridal shower and try to upload few of the things I have done. So here is a new one, its a Photo booth where you just hold this frame in your hands and take pictures. Isn't it cool?
This frame is 2 feet by 1.9 feet in size so approximately 24" x 21" in size. It was very overwhelming at the beginning when I started to make it, but once I was sure about the size and what I wanted to do, it was not so much difficult.

Supplies:

  • Chipboard ( Full size or as big as you can get)/ Sunboard/ mountboards/cardboards
  • Pink Handmade Paper ( Itsybitsy)
  • Pink and chevron Pink washi tapes. ( Crafters Corner)
  • Pearls ( self adhesive or flat back)
  • Velvet leaves ( 1"in size)
  • Mulberry roses ( 1"in size)( Itsybitsy)
  • Curling ribbons  in shaes of pinks and whites (Itsybitsy)
  • Satin ribbon ( Itsybitsy)
    Metallic paper (Itsybitsy)
  • Glitter confetti (Itsybitsy)
  • White dulplex papers/ crepe papers/ tissue papers
  • White wire pollens
  • White, offwhite and pale yellow thread pollens
  • Think floral wire
  • Walnut Stain distress ink pad and blending tool
  • Silicon glue/ hot glue gun (Itsybitsy)
  • White adhesive
  • Scissors
There are a lot of things that have brought this frame come to life. I have used chipboard 1200 gsm for the frame. To make it very sturdy, I have doubled it. Then, I went ahead and wrapped it up using pink handmade paper. I added some washi tapes using adhesive so that they do not peel off at all. This gave me the layout for the photo booth. For further embellishing, I added some velvet leaves and mulberry roses to the corners using some silicon glue. Silicon glue really did hold all the things in place.
Using a leaf template, I cut 4 leaves from the gold metallic paper and then distressed it using Walnut stain distress ink. I added some rose gold glitter confetti on the leaves using some white adhesive. I simply outlined the leaves with white adhesive and then poured the glitter on it. Let it sit for few mins and then shake it off.
I made few white flowers using white and pale cream Duplex paper. I have used duplex paper because it has different colors on its faces. You can also used tissue paper, crepe paper. I created the center for the flowers using a bunch of wire pollens and a bunch of white, off white and pale yellow wire pollens, I have done 2 roses and 2 peonies using two different techniques. Once the flowers were done, I added some glitter on the flowers using the same technique used for leaves. I did not add chunks of glitter, just some here and there. I shall do a tutorial for making these flowers in my upcoming post and so I have not including the tutorial here.
I arranged the gold leaves and big white flowers on the frame and adhered them using silicon glue. To fill the remaining places, I added some curling ribbons and satin ribbons. Finished the frame with some self adhesive pearls.
I am putting this project up at Allsorts challenge blog.
That completes the frame/ photo booth. I hope you all liked it and thank you for reading this post.

Birthday wishes

Hey guys

Today I am doing two cards which I made for the Peek-a-boo challenge of this month as well as A Blog Named Hero challenge..
I have done two birthday cards and both the cards use the same stamp. I have used Neenah solar white cardstock for the top and iris paper daffodil delight color as the base for both the cards.
  1. For the first card, I stamped balloons from KAISERCRAFT Pop!- Treats stamp set.  I used a fine tip black waterproof pen to draw the strings. I wanted all the strings to show so I masked the balloons on the top while stamping the balloons on the lower row.The die inks used are from MEMENTO - Tuxedo Black, Dandelion, Lady bug, Grape Jelly and Bahama Blue. and Ranger Dye inks -Electric Lime and Pink Gumball. I made a small window cut from the front of card and the base could peep in from behind. Added sequins and satin ribbon bows to finish the card.
  2. For the second card, I have used washi tapes to make the candles. Added the tapes on white card stock and cut them in 1 . 5 cm broad strips. After adding them to the card, I trimmed off the excess. For the flame, I have used the base color cardstock and fussy cut the flame shapes and watercolored them using FaberCastle watercolor pencils. The flames are mounted on the card using foam tapes. I finished the card with a baby blue paper twine and sequins. 
I hope you guys like my cards. Thank you for reading my blog.
