Ensemble an Elegance

Hello Lovely People.....

Wish you all a very Happy Diwali.

Today on this auspicious day I would love to share my creative work for this month. 

I have worked on 10x10 black canvas, with Finnabair's stencil run through embossing paste and added Lindy's embossing powder Poppin-pink EP, adhered crushed paper and made a treek trunk and branches, gessoed it with Finnabair's White Gesso, sprayed the tree trunk and branches with Lindy's spray Hag's Wart Orange,  and coloured the diecuts with Ramblin-rose-pink, Cotton-candy-pink, added layers of diecuts which were embossed with Lindy's EP - Stardust Candy Rose, Poppin Pink EP, added fussycut flowers, lace embellishements, diecuts were also distressed with Timholtz Distress inks, glass chabocons were colored with alcohol inks, chippies were colored with Lindy's sprays, later added few jewellery finding and gold chain as hanging lantens from the tree brances, added micro balls and silk flowers across with small wooden slices around the tree's trunck.

I would be happy to share this work with 

For this challenge I have used black background and costume as the main challenge. For me costume is our Indian saree which is our tradition, pride and innovation. It represents the culture of India and symbolizes a woman's way of life. The many ways that the saree is worn says much of its versatality and durability.   Saree is not only worn in India but all over the world, thats because of its sensuality that it has grabbed attention till today and a woman looks elegant, gorgeous and stylish. Me as a south Indian love sarees and its just sensuous. So I was totally happy to create this months challenge with the focal pic of a famous and talented South Indian actress.

Also would love to share with 

I loved the color palette and have created this LO with all Lindys EP and sprays.

PS: I loved the autumn colors of the moodboard and also wanted to share my work with similar colors and textures which gives a different festive feel for this autumn.

Hope you guys enjoy this Diwali - festival of lights. Wish you all Good Luck, Health, Peace and Prosperity.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers!!
