ICRC18 INSPIRATION - A DELAYED POST!

Hello Everyone,


Sorry for not being a regular at all blog related activities.... ICR & LIFE has kept me busy with so many things..... off late..... Literally loads of them.... :(


Hence was the delay in posting my inspiration for June's Challenge on ICR, ICRC18;


There was another reason too.... The card was made for a friend who delivered a baby boy & who just came down to Bangalore from UK..... I just did not wanna loosen up the surprise for her.... :O


But still it was not fair that ICR team had posted their inspirations & I did not do it yet..... Hence sorry for the delay again & here is my inspiration for the same.....


Below is the challenge pad for ICRC18....

And my inspiration....



And entering this creation into a couple of challenges too.....


JAI for their Sketch....
Crafty Creations Challenge for Baby theme.....
ICR of course!


The Prep :


White CS from Fabriano for base.....
Scored for the look of the crib; Inked the scores with Rich Cocoa Memento Drop & adhered wood printed DP for the top of the crib....
Rocking Horse is a TSB image.... Colored with Bic Markers..... & popped up on pop dots.....
Cut out the framed look on a Light Blue CS form Fabriano.....
Topped it with a sentiment which was a part of the sentiment sheet I picked from Landmark.... Most probably belongs to Deja View! {Not too sure though}
Baby boy is from stash which was a RAK from T....


Do join us with few more days left before we go live with our ICRC19..... :p


Catch up with you & your creations at ICRC18!!!


SHOUT OUT :


Just on Sunday I had met up with Bhavana Kesarkar & during the discussion I shared my grief of not being able to stay connected on BLOGGER with fellow crafters..... And VOILA she suggested I just download another browser where I can keep myself logged in to blogger..... Came home tried it & since then I have been so happy.... Visited few blogs around & commented on them too..... If not usually if they had the anonymous option enabled, I would comment as so with my name mentioned.....


But now, I don't have to do that..... I can be in touch with the crafters around & all thanks to BHAVANA..... You are my SAVIOR!!!!




UNTIL NEXT, KEEP THE FAITH!!!

ICRC17 {SHAPED CREATIONS + SHAPES INSPIRED FROM HOME & ITS THINGS}!!!

Hello People,

I do not like myself not posting often or rather posting occasionally.... but I guess it is gonna be so until I get a breather...... Phew!!!!

Well, here to post my inspiration for ICRC17...... a bit delayed post, yet on time.... ;)

Below is the challenge pad.....

CHALLENGE + COMBO TWIST : SHAPED CREATIONS + SHAPES INSPIRED FROM HOME & ITS THINGS.....

And here is my project for the same.....



Used the template that was helped for a project on TCC..... which I had ready since then....
But unfortunately, due to lack of time, could not deck it up for the respective TCC project...... With less hours to work on, I thought would use the base that was all ready to be decked up..... So here it is...... :D


The Prep:

Cream CS from Fabriano for the base....
Dotted DP was a first pick from Itsy Bitsy......
The punched out trim was a RAK from Priya Sondhi.....
Bling are bindi stickers from a local store....
The label is a chipboard piece I won for some challenge abroad....
The Sentiment on that was a stamp which was a RAK from a good soul, who I cannot remember now, unfortunately.... SORRY..... If it is u, I am sorry from the bottom of my heart & thank u for it.....

{I just hope I would not have an Alzheimer attack, so soon..... }

And the tea bag was made from a piece of GT sheet.... with a twine stapled.....
Roses are from stash.....
Just sponged some ink around on the creation to give it a slightly period look.....


That is pretty much of the creation.....

ICR hopes, you would dare yourself with our recent episode of ICR CHALLENGES!!!

UNTIL NEXT, KEEP THE FAITH!!!!
