DESIGN TEAM INSPIRATIONS
After 12 years, I finally made an album from our honeymoon.
I was inspired by the new mood board аnd because this month's
phrase is "Make memories!", I decided to make my project personal.
I chose a few photos from the 5 cities we visited in Italy.
I painted the fabric for the covers and edges of the pages with paint.
I covered some of the items with wax, sprayed the covers and pages with black gesso,
and added stamps.
and added stamps.
Inspired by the travel theme and the colors of the mood board
I made this mixed media painting. I used map stamps on the background
paper to intensify the theme and the papers patterns.
This painting will be a reminder to visit those places
I dream of visiting and make new memories!
This theme took back me when me and my husband went to see light house in California...
I love going to the beach it calms me down.
I used compulsory element stamp...and the text stamps are one of my favorite.
I took colors from the mood board and the picture clicked by my husband.
Waking up to the chirping of birds at dawn, exercising and practising dance in the
terrace breathing fresh air was my routine for many years until I got married.
terrace breathing fresh air was my routine for many years until I got married.
Now I hardly hear the birds sound. It's rather the vehicles' honking that I wake up to everyday. Birds and the beach hold a special place in my heart bringing
in fond cherishing memories. The mood board for July did exactly that.
And we have to use stamps. I have used them in 3 different ways like stamping
with archival inks, stamping with embossing powder and stamping with dies.
Share your memory with us because that's what we are left with.
The colors and the travel theme on the mood board inspired me to create this canvas...
Travel creates memories that last a life time. The best things in life
are the people we love, the places we've been and the memories we've
made along the way.
Travelling brings pleasure and joy . It is thrilling to visit unknown places, to meet new people, to see different cultures and in the process we end up making unforgettable memories, which we cherish throughout our life time. This was one of such tour to mesmerising heaven in
india "Kashmir". ❤From the mood board colors ,snow mountains and adventures inspired me. I have used printed real travel stamp. Now get inspired and create your version.
I used stamps to create my own tissue paper for the background
and to make some elements. It was so much fun creating this project.
To put power into our LIVES. The trip allows this through the encounters they provide, the various places that it allows to cross, the cultures that it allows to apprehend, the experiences that it allows to multiply. For this challenge, I decided to work on a square canvas,
I used many gear molds, and I positioned in the center, this woman determined to travel, to discover life while traveling. I used a stamp on the bottom left and also on the top right,
I used the hot embossing technique.
Hello everyone,
I created this mixed media layout with pastel pink and beige colors. The focal image that I chose represents the memories which are fading away slowly. I have used three types of stamps in my composition - brick wall, flourish and script. I used the script stamp under my vellum paper for a see through effect, flourish stamp around the floral arrangements and brick wall around the composition for an added element.
I loved creating this project based on this gorgeous mood board, hope y'all like it too.
Do you feel inspired!
