Altered Bottle

Good Morning!

This is Tanvi, with my interpretation of the theme - Deck up your Home-Challenge#56.

I have an altered bottle - 

After a good wash in warm water I sponged gesso on the bottle & then painted it with chalk paint (again with a sponge). Lulupu store has an amazing range of Mod podge and lovely prints of washi tapes. Check them out here. My DT kit had some lovely washis & I used this awesome glitter washi tape to jazz up the nexk of the bottle. The jute twine & washi were held tight with Mod Podge. Added some charms & sequins too.

On the front of the bottle I glued some die cut from a Tilda paper pack & did some random stamping all around the bottle using coffee archival ink. 

Hope you like this project & join our last challenge of 2015. Please link your projects in the post here & find all the rules here.

Hugs,

Tanvi!

Altered Clock

Hello Friends!

Tanvi here with another project for Lulupu Challenge#49. You will find all the details for this challenge in Manu's post Lulupu Challenge #49 : Feminine - Use wings & Colour Palette.

I have altered a Tim Holtz Assemblage Clock inspired by the colors from the pic & for the twist WINGS, I have a bird, butterflies & an angel!

To begin I removed the glass & back panel of the clock & generously primed the surface by sponging gesso (2-3 layers). This lends a grainy texture. After this I colored the clock with distress inks - mowed lawn & salty ocean. The MDF cut outs were coated with mowed lawn distress paint & glued as desired with glossy accents.

I used liquid pearls to add defintion to the frame of the clock as well as the MDF frame.

The little angel (wings) here is from G45 - Sweet Sentiments. The bird perched on the flourish is coated with black soot distress crackle paint.

Glued to the inside of the back panel is a colorful printout of a clock face. Hanging here is also a miniature bird house! I have glued a resin door (colored with vintage photo distress ink) too. A flower under the arch of the door keeps it open , welcoming one & all!

Hanging on one side of the clock bell is a cute wish bottle with a secret message & cute feminine charms.

Here are some close ups of the clock! 

Hope you enjoyed todays' project & if you did do leave some love!

Thanks for dropping by!

Happy Crafting!

Challenge #42 - A gift for festivals : Made with Love

Hello my dear friends,

Kripa here to reveal the next challenge at Lulupu.

With sweet memories of Deepavali and preparations for Christmas and New Year in mind, we have a special challenge for you all this month

Challenge #42

A gift set for festivals
(like New Year e.g.- Card with matching box, gift bags with tags, Easel card and box, Altered notebook/matching stationary)

(You can find the general guidelines to challenges here)

And as always we have a prize too

 

I altered a notebook into a planner to give as a New Year gift for a very special person.

The original book had plain black covers. I pulled apart the ring, took off the pages and put it back together with 4 dividers in place. The front and back cover have also been altered. The photographs below are only of the dividers without the blank pages in between, so that its easier to capture both front and back of each divider.

Along with the book, included are a dozen journaling cards, a handful of embellishments, washi tape and a gel pen.

 Some of the inside pages have intentionally been left blank, so she can alter them the way she wants.

 The pages have been given a light coat of clear gesso so they can be painted on easily and the colour won't soak through.

 

Finally, here is the back cover and the front again

 

 

Here is a list of supplies used

Coffee Break 3D Stickers	Coffee Break Laser Cut Wood Icons In A Box 24 Pieces	Made With Love Japanese Washi Tape	Transparent 3D Matte Gel 8oz

Washi Tape Home Decor - DIY

Hello friends,

Have you noticed, its raining washi tapes here on the Lulupu blog. We started the month with a stunning vintage scrapbook layout from Jaya, followed by a beautiful memory box by Shilpa and an adorable file folder to store your dies by Hussena.  So have you started making your project for 

Challenge #37 - 
Anything with Washi 

(Click here to read the detailed post on this challenge)

1. Use atleast 3 different washi tapes

2. Incorporate a shape or a ready-made embellishment

My project this time is very different to my usual style - no texture paste, no mists. Couldn't resist a little bit of gesso and stamps while creating the layers though.

I love the Heidi Swapp Dreamy collection - soft colours, pastel shades, easy backgrounds to work with. Match them up with the ephemera pack, sugar dots, wood veneer and your all set to create a stunning project no matter card, layout or off the page.

We celebrated Father's Day this Sunday in Australia and I wanted to make something special to gift my hubby. Plus I've been wanting to make something for the empty walls of my house for a while now, so I altered a white photo collage frame into

It was not only fun, but super easy to create. First, stick 3 different washi atpes at random places on the frame. I've used the 'made with love', 'measured up' and 'golden script' tapes. Next cut some small squares of patter paper from the Heidi Swapp Dreamy paper pad, layer them and chose a focal embellishment or phrase sticker for the top layer. Also, cut two strips of banners for the top right frame. Embellish to your hearts content using sugar dots, the ephemera pack and wood veneer. Finally cut some words out using the silhouette cameo or an exacto knife and your all done!

We are waiting to see your creations linked up here. As always, there is an awesome prize up for grabs - the winner of this challenge gets this Hello Sunshine chipboard stickers

So, what are you waiting for.... dig out those washi tapes from your stash or order some from the Lulupu store and join the washi party with us. From neutral, vintage colours to bright whimsical prints there is a wide variety of washi tapes available on the Lulupu store.

Hugs,

Kripa
