Handmade with Love

Hello there,
It is my favorite time of the year and all I can see, hear and smell is Christmas these days. I decided to make a layered Canvas and used the TCW stencils and lots of different TCW mediums too. I also documented the entire process on the TCW blog so you can create your own.



I hope you are preparing for Christmas in your own unique way! If this canvas inspired you in some way, please don't forget to let me know :) Thank you so much for stopping by and I will see you again soon! Ujjwal

Hello there,

How have you all been? It's been a long time, I know, but I am just trying balance everything with the kids and house and work and it's EXHAUSTING! So, I just decided to take a little break (especially from social media) but I just wanted to pop in here and share my newest tutorial on the Pretty Paper Studio Blog. 

It is heartwarming to know that so many of you love my mini albums and so I added another album tutorial to the series and this one is called Star Album, for it opens to look like a star. I saw these on Pinterest and couldn't resist trying.




Hop on to the Pretty Paper Studio blog to check out all the photos of the album. And here's the video tutorial, so you can try making your own,


Let me know if you give this a try! Have a great week ahead. love, Ujjwal

Hello there,

I have been taking it a bit easy after baby number 2 and so just wanted to relax and do my favorite thing - participate in challenges :)

So when I was thinking about my design team post for the TCW blog, I thought of creating these mixed media cards keeping in mind The Twisted Challenge#4 - Celebrations + Monochrome which I think is such a unique theme


 and Mudra Challenge 25 - Layer it up which is totally out of my comfort zone.


 I love how vibrant and beautiful the end result came out to be.



For the background, I used the TCW Heavy Body Paints and mediums. Check out the video below to see I how I created it. Then I used the Mudra Craft Stamp "Simply Floral" to create my floral embellishments. I also used the Mudra Craft Stamp "Special Day" to add more interest to the background.

To keep the theme monochrome, I created my own shades of green by mixing colors. I love all the final textures that I was able to create.

Watch the video to see how I create…

Hello,

Sharing a mini 8"X6" mini album I made on commission sometime back. I used the DCWV paper pack and lots of different embellishments to decorate it.











These are just some of my favorite pages from the entire book. Loved the way it turned out and was equally loved by the client too.
See you again soon with another project, Ujjwal

Hello there,

Hello there, I am back again with another mini album tutorial. This is an easy one and something you can make with minimal supplies in no time. Needless to say, it makes for a great gift and can be adapted to any theme. I am using it as a travel journal to document our trip to Goa, way back in 2011, to celebrate our first wedding anniversary!


Here's the video tutorial showing how to make the album step by step

Let me know if you liked this video and I will be back again with another one soon. Have a lovely week ahead!
