Guest Post 1 for HNDMD

Hello Everyone!
This is Tanvi from Paperfantasees & its such a pleasure to be guesting for HNDMD. Thank you Khyati 😊
So here is my first post using the gorgeous decoupage papers & chalk paints Khyati sent across - a coordinating set of tray & coasters.






I selected the Aged Beauty designs for this set. While these designs have a vintage feel, I wanted a brighter look. The chalk paints (lemon drop & tomato red) were ideal. I painted the inside of the tray with lemon drop chalk paint. Once dry I dabbed tomato red paint using a sea sponge. The resulting texture was now perfect to brighten the tray. Painted the outside of the tray with pale daffodil. Random stenciling with copper paint for a subtle metallic sheen & I had a gorgeous set waiting to adorn my table!

Patina Effect Paste

Hello Al!
If you love the look of patina & would like to effortlessly AGE your artifacts in a few hours hang in here as I share how! This was my inspiration post for the LetzCraft Blog.



For the patina I used CrafTangles Patina effect paste which is a thick matte textured paste that gives results on  almost any surface like canvas, wood, paper, metal etc. & Finnabair metallique wax.

This is the lantern BEFORE ageing ðŸ˜‰


To begin I carefully removed the glass pieces on the lantern & cleaned it thoroughly with a wet wipe. For the faux patina  sponge all the four patina shades in the set till you get the desired effect, simple isn’t it! Such an amazing effect, with layers of blue & green over the metal.

Explosion Box Album

Hello & welcome back!
When I received the gorgeous Roseate Pack pack in my DT kit, I was sure it would remain in my stash forever,my heart aches to cut papers I love!
I have made an explosion box mini album using this paper pack, the base of the album is Beirut Black card stock


















Some elements from the collage sheet were fussy cut for embellishing the lid.



This is a tall box measuring  5x7", three of the 6 pages have pockets for additional inserts & tags.















 I have also fussy cut the floral motifs & used these are pockets on the inside of the box.
