Delightful

Altered Box

Hello all. I had a corrugated chalk box, for some reason I did not want to through it away. Got a good chance to make it a beautiful one. I also made the texture paste at home for the same and trust me it turned out really good ( mixed 1/2 cup cornstarch, 2 tablespoon glue and 1 tablespoon of white acrylic paint).

I have used Papericious Naturals patterned paper to cover the box. Then I used the script stencil and the retro circle stencil . I used different metallic acrylic colors to it, until was satisfied with the look. I cut the chipboard into two pieces and stuck it. I applied gesso to it and then mixed perfect pearl with grass green alcohol ink. I used a few layers of papers in the middle and added a 3 D sticker "DELIGHTFUL"to it. I have fussy cut all the flowers and the leaves also used some metal embellishments, hearts, glitter, a pearl string to it.

Thank You.

THE ADORABLE

Hello and welcome you all to my blog. This time I have tried to create a canvas using shells which I love and also wanted to add lot of elements to it.

First I gessoed the entire canvas. Then I did some stencil work using texture paste. I used the Bloom Silhouettes stencil from Artploration also I used another stencil from crafter's workshop. Towards the lower side I stuck the shells with 3d gel medium. I also used some buttons, a lock and a key, metal flowers, time clogs, a clock etc. Then I gessoed it all again . Then I painted it with acrylic paints metallic green, bronze, inka gold . I also used perfect pearl to it.To the wooden chipboard I applied Egyptian Gold, after it dried I stamped it with walnut distress ink with scripture stamp. I wanted the canvas to have a few hanging embellishments . For that I made metal chain and attached a bottle filled with glitter to it. I also used a key , a bird's cage, a heart to it. I cant show in the picture as to how lovely these embellishments look  but it has given a different dimension to the canvas. I wanted to add a fairy but dropped the idea. Finally adorned it with bling and handmade paper

flowers .Hope you all like it.

Thank You
