Light up your crafty project in this festive season!

Dear All,
I always fascinated by lights, in my childhood I keep following fireflies. Here in USA I am seeing fire "flies" but we have fire caterpillars back in my home town, they are light green color and their tail has a light :-) and believe me they has particular smell too ...not bad one though :-)
I love bonfire. Sitting in front of fireplace is my all time favorite thing in winter time. I love decorating house with so many lights in Diwali and our Christmas tree is always glowing with variety of lights. I am a collector of candles and old oil lamps. I enjoyed power outage situation a lot in my childhood and that time there were no computers to worried about. I was waiting when my mom will burn some candles and we gather together around that tiny candle and talk about beautiful memories and sometime scary tales....LOL 
Ok enough chatting....:-)
Here is my most requested canvas. This time I created 10X10 instead of 12X12.

First let me show you all the pictures and then kind of step by step photo tutorial for you and hope it helps. Way too easy and fun making. Nothing new or fancy :-)

Here are some images of my Easel Card, Tag and 12X12 Canvas Layout!




















I am totally into mixed media and had so much fun making this 12X12 layout canvas using this collection. I am totally in love with the colors from this collection. The secret it, this canvas has lights :-) For this project I have used 12X12 Canvas and one of the 12X12 paper from the collection. I also used Majestic Collage stamp set. I created lots of flowers in three different shades and used Stickles. I also used glossy accent to pop up other flat flowers from the paper. I have created the square window and used net fabric again for this project. Used one sentiment tag from the collection. Again used spellbinders Foliage die for leaves and finished this project with some Gems as a dew drops and added some lights from back side of the canvas in between all the flower cluster. 





























Here I made this Easel Card Using Majestic Morning Papers. Majestic Bloom Die and Stamp set .
This is 6x6 card. I did some stitching here. I have used some basic papers as a base.
I have used Copic markers to color them and used Stickles for center and on the petals as well.
For a super cut touch I used Net fabric under the one of the panel and I have used Spellbinders Circle die to create a window. The circle piece has floral design so I stick that inside the window I created and stick that window using foam dots. Also used Spell binders Foliage Die for leaves. Inside I have used one sentiment tag from and another decorative piece from the collection. Also used some flat back trim as a stopper for this card.

Finished this card using some Gems to give dewdrop effect.





























Thank You!
