Down the Memory Lane- 1st Blogoversary Celebration Project ! Mixed Media Art Layout - SUPER HEAVY PICTURE AND DETAILED POST !!

Hey Friends,
I'm here today with another Mixed Media Project, which I had a Blast working on.
I have been so busy with everything else...that I was missing out on my Crafty Time. I was literally going mad, not being able to craft. Somehow, I squeezed out 30 minutes to do something creative.. Although I had nothing in particular to work on, and my mind was blank.  I just took out my brand new art Journal & decided to use my Distress Inks on them & pulled out a few of my favorite craft supplies like Texture white, Tim Holtz Stamps, Some Dies, Ink Pads, Templates & Flowers. Here's what I came up with...in just 20 mins. I Love Love Love how it came out.

I have made this especially for my friend Nupur Patel of 'Down the Memory Lane', who is celebrating her 1st Blogoversary. She has asked crafters from all across the globe to participate in the 15 days celebrations she's having by contributing their projects. I'm so honoured & thankful to her for asking me to be a part of it. 
That's not all !! She's also having an awesome Giveaway at her Blog. Please visit her blog to get some lovely inspirations from all over the globe & for some yummy-licious candy that she is offering! 

On to the pics now...... Enjoy !
