Engagement invites | Shabby chic

Happy Friday!
How have you been?
I’m in a bit of a chatty mood today and I just felt I should share a couple of things with you guys. I started 2018 with a lot of motivation to work and do new things. You must have seen a lot of new projects posted for the last few months. 2018 has been wonderful for me with lots of work and has kept me engaged in things that I love. Today's project is definitely a new addition to my collection and this something new, interesting and beautiful. Although it was a tough time completing the task, I thoroughly enjoyed the process of creating these invites. 

Well, it took me around 15 days to complete this project and since it was a set of engagement invitation cards I had to design it up to my client's expectation. So, I bought my favourite sheets along with one of the beautiful punches to recreate the idea of Mr and Mrs that is usually titled on all invitation cards. I punched a couple of bows and mustaches on a white cardstock and picked some dmc sparkling dust to glitter my bows. They looked pretty! I then picked some dmc micro beads to cover the centre of the bow and used the same beads to cover the mustache. It really looked elegant!! I proceeded further creating a box with an invitation card and got stuck on how to make it special by creating it in a unique way. Engagement party is a beautiful occasion as bride and groom offer a ring to one another and it is a ritual before wedding. The best thing that clicked on my mind was to get the miniature engagement rings and tie it on the card to let it stand out from others. I further embellished both the card and the box using flowers and other accessories. It just looked perfect for the occasion and most importantly it pretty much matched with the party theme and the gorgeous outfit of the bride groom. 
I've attached tons of pictures of the invitation cards below. I hope you like the idea and if you are a shabby chic lover, you are definitely going to love it.

Further if you wish to get invites customised, give us little details about the occasion and we shall design the best for you with all minute details.
Always happy to serve the best of best!

Victorian frame | Handmade flowers

Hello guys, Hope you are doing great. I have been waiting to share a new Victorian frame I created using a resin frame which measures 10 inches approximately in height. I have painted the frame using my favourite teal blue paint and used some gold foil on it to give a royal touch. I then embellished the frame using an antique window panel and created some flowers using the dress my craft dies and other embellishments. This frame is quite close to my heart because it involves a lot of hard work and time in it. This frame can also be used as a mirror and it makes a great gift for all occasions. I love the way it turned out and this is my absolute favourite piece of art in my collection. Hope you like it. Thank you for stopping by! Hugs, Meher Shaikh

Try shutter card | Shabby chic

Yayyyyy!! So, finally it's Saturday and weekends are filled with excitement. Spending some quality time with family and hanging out is real fun and relaxing after a hectic week. It's sunny morning here in Kolkata today and I am sharing a new card that I created recently. I believe each and every artist has his own style of working and i f you had asked me about my working style a year back, I would have definitely described it as Vintage but lately I have been experimenting a lot! Whether it is designs, products, styles or even colours. I’ve always been open to trying new things and I'm pretty sure you are going to find it in my post today.  I've many more projects created in different styles and I'm going to be uploading them soon. Grab a cup of coffee ☕ for now and enjoy the post.
