Color Conception Challenges: Nail it Down with Textures

Hi am back today with the Color Conceptions Challenges: Nail it Down with Textures.....

Let me make the theme more clear for you. We are looking at any kind and all sorts of textures that you can create with the help of embossing folders, with the use of fabrics like laces, burlaps, mesh, net or with the use of mixed media paraphernalia like gesso, gel mediums, texture paste, utee, embossing powders, sprays etc. The more the textures the better! The only condition is that whatever method you choose to incorporate, the projects need to be something that you can hang on your doors or walls- like a key chain hanger, name plate, wall hanging, scrapbook layouts, wall clocks and so on....

One random winner from the participants would receive a GIFT VOUCHER worth Rs 500, to purchase in our shop - www.thecraftshop.in

Its Raining Washi at Color Conceptions Challenges!!!

Hey folks...I have been MIA thanks to my troublesome lappy...My MacBook survived 8 years without giving me any trouble but it did have a painful end with battery, motherboard and its internal fan all gone for a toss!!! Sad to be deserting it but at the same time happy with the new member in the family -MacBook Pro!!!

Anyways I have missed a couple of posts so instead of doing a details showcase of items and linking back to the blogs!!!

We are currently having the "Trash to Treasure using Washi Tape" challenge at the Color Conceptions Challenges. You can recycle anything as far as its done with washi!!! So do join us for the challenge and share your creations here.

My inspiration for the same was.....

I used an old leftover foam sheet and had two different washi tapes cover it completely and then a few strokes of Mod Podge just to seal the loose ends and give it a long lasting touch. After it dried down I cut it to make a puzzle game out of it!!!

There were many other beautiful and cool inspirations from the other DT and to have a look at it...click here.

Over the past three weeks the design team has come up with some real cool ideas of how to use washi tapes and for that am posting the links below...see for yourself and get inspired!!!
