FUN MAY Scrapbook layout

Hello crafty friends,
I have made this lovely layout with combined  inspirations and themes from certain ongoing blog challenges. It is so amazing how many themes can be combined to form one project. The sky is the limit for a crafter.  Totally enjoyed making the project

Inspiration from ongoing MTW Blog Challenge: The strip background, floral arrangement in strips,  and the quote " Funny good old days". The layout has certain elements of my childhood memories( lemonade, T.V). Growing up with my siblings and childhood friends watching T.V serials, and cartoons in our color T.V (priceless those days, few families could effort one), having lemonades during the hot summer heat which we totally relished. These elements bring back funny, good old memories that I would any day love to revisit again.
The colors yellow, pink, green , floral layout in form of heart, lemons,trees- inspired from the mood-board Splashy mix Challenge.
The watch embellishment swinging in the tree, and  stamped numbers (twist)- inspired by Creative embellishment challenge.

The watch embellishments reminding of time, that nothing lasts forever. To Cherish, enjoy, and love each moment of our life.

PRETTY IN PINK
Hello crafty Souls,
This month was super exciting for me as I was able to do lots of crafting,  to be gifted to some of the dear mothers including my mother.
In particular, I would love to share one of the project " Pretty in Pink", a simple yet elegant frame adorned with handmade flowers. Had put much love creating this project.  Pink because that's my mother's favorite color. The frame is MDF based, coated with gesso and painted over with chalk paint ( pink, off white), then using a stensil used texture paste over the frame border. Then decorated the frame with foamiran flowers ( selfmade), handmade paper flowers @itsybitsystore stored bought. Used some pretty pink pattern paper and  die cut elements to finish the inside frame. Finally a coat of clear Varnish.
