Hello Everyone 

I am Shweta Kant, a crafter from New Delhi. I am so happy and thankful to get this opportunity to be on PRIKA Blog to showcase my work. 

I started my crafting journey 2 years back and hooked to it till now. I love creating with the flow and always follow my heart while making any art piece. 

So here I am with my creation today to present my Guest Inspirator Post for the Month Of September with the theme of “Birds, Bees and Butterfly”. 

So as far as my post is concerned I have made a Mixed Media Altered Project named Dream whose inspiration I have taken from the quote “Your wings already exist, all you have to dream and fly”. Here, my focal point is a butterfly. 

Let me share few glimpses of my project with you all

So the steps to make this are as follows:

First of all I applied Texture paste with script stencil on the base.

After that I wrap a twine on the base vertically

Also pasted Crochet lace on the base with the help of Fabric Glue.

After that I pasted newspaper cylinder in vertical manner at the center of the base and applied few chipboard cutout of wreath and Butterfly 

After that I coloured the whole base with black gesso

Also applied gold metallic wax to highlight relief areas 

After that I applied Gold Leaf for added interest in the composition.
