The world would be boring without you..

Hi all... what better way to gift someone a handmade diary where you can write about and treasure the beautiful moments captured in words. 

Here i am sharing a an altered diary cover using handmade paper, stamps, dies ,laces,and other elements to give a vintage shabby spring feel to it.

Main Stamp is the beautiful Deep Red Love Bench Stamp and the bird die is Joycraft's Vintage Flourish's Bird die. For rest of the stamps i dont really remember the brand as i have many dies n stamps which are now without cover...so the brand name is difficult to remebr. If i come to know will post it too :)

After cutting the handmade paper to the size of the diary front cover,i colored and stamped it with distress inks using masking technique. Covered the edge with laces, paper,beads,pollens and flowers and die cut leaves using Spring Foliage Creative Expression Die. On top right i adhered the die cut birds.

I want to link this creation to the    http://mixedmediawarriors.blogspot.in/2017/03/wyzwanie-14-mmw-wiosenny-moodboard.html   http://mixedmediawarriors.blogspot.in/ spring moodboard challenge. Three elements that inspired me through this moodboard are the flowers,colors and the unseen half revealed face which i have tried to incorporate in my creation.

Hope u like it :)
