Treasured Memories: Art Playground Challenge- All about the Center

Hello Friends!!!

Welcome to I am so excited and delighted to share my Guest Design project for our first ever Art Play Ground – May Challenge- All about the Center. When I looked this month color and theme of current challenge, it bought me joy and fun. This teal color and its different shades are my favorite, when I think of colors. I always love to make scrapbook layouts for my little cute son. So I made this page for preserving his childhood memories and treasure them forever.

Here is our May Play- Color Scheme:

You can create any project you like and tell us how the monthly tips reflected in your project. You have to use at least two colors from our monthly color scheme (you can add black, white and metallic if you feel like it). For more details and amazing DT inspirations, please click here.

Stay tuned with us at our Art Play Ground blog for more incredible ideas by sweet Sharon Ziv and other team members.

Please do visit here, if you interested to know more about our amazing and talented Guest Design Team members.

In this project, I used photo as focal element. I love creating layouts with the touch of shabby, vintage and mixed media art. I used lots of supplies from my most favorite lines Prima marketing- Finnabair , Lindy’s Stamp Gang, Tim Holtz and some Indian craft stores. I used different stencils and stamps to create a scene around the focal element. Then I used lots of Prima flowers, Finnabair Art stones, paper clay embellishments, Finnabair Art Pebbles, fabric flowers, Laces, die cuts, different size pearls, sentiments and some other craft supplies to give final finish. In my views adhering lots of embellishments around the focal element enhance the beauty of project and make any focal element most noticeable.

Thanks so much sweet Sharon for this awesome opportunity. I am so happy and thrilled to join you all for our May Challenge as Guest Designer.

I would love to join following amazing challenges by this month:
1. More than words- May 2018 Main Challenge- Memories & Frames
http://morethanwordschallenge.blogspot.in/2018/05/may-2018-main-challenge-memories-frame.html
(I was inspired with word inspiration and created this layout to cherish some memories when my boy was only a year old. I love the use of frames in my creations. I made this layout specially for my two and half year old son, as I love making most scrap projects to preserve each moment of his childhood. For me "Memory" is the diary of events . I always fascinated about memories because they warm up from the inside.)
My favorite quotes:
God gave us "Memory" so that we might have roses in December.
James M. Barrie

A Glimpse of Heaven: Guest Designing for SCRAP the BOYS

Hello Everyone!!

I am guest designing over at "SCRAP the BOYS" blog this month. I am so thrilled and excited. I won December month  challenge over there and have been invited to guest designer. I love this place "SCRAP the BOYS" so much, their blog is a huge inspiration for me (for anyone who loves scrapping for the boys specially). As I am started my creative journey by following this blog, its an honor for me to get my project featured there.

The guest post went live on 1st March 2018 and here is the link if you'd like to take a look.

Here is the Sketch for March Sketch challenge created by Laura Whitaker. I love this sketch so much and decided to make something so lovable to celebrate this special moment of my creative journey.

I made two layouts for my guest design spot. One with shabby touch and another with grungy, bright colors and rustic touch, using lots of Lindy's Gang spray and Finnabair-Prima Marketing Product. Nowadays, I am exploring Mixed media world and love to make something more creative and full of love.    

Here is my first layout as GDT for SCRAP the BOYS with Mixed media techniques. I selected some cute photos of my most treasured moments ever. These pictures are so close to my heart and captured my little boy when he was just one month old. I have used Lindy's Gang sprays, Finnabair-Prima marketing products, Spellbinders metal dies, metal charms, die cuts, chipboard pieces and some other embellishments.

 In this layout, I used a paperclay frame, which also making this creation so special again.This is a part of my giveaway prize, which I won from my so favorite MM artist and friend Ola Khomanok. She is so creative and talented. I really adore her work so much. Thank you so much Ola for sending me  so thoughtful and wonderful prize, your handmade MM altered notebook is my so favorite and treasured gift among all the goodies.
