all encapsulated in a box! It's the boss here again, and this time I have created a box for Valentine's Day. I made this for a workshop yesterday, and now we have the workshop done and dusted ( photos are on
my blog), I can show you some of the bits and pieces that went to make it up. I collected lots of hearts ( I always do this for all my mixed media workshops), and we used them in a variety of ways.
I loved the idea that the
idea-ology Configuration boxes can be made up anyway you like, and this one is completely out of the box! I used
Ten Seconds studio metal run through
Tim's Alteration Heart die, and then embossed with one of his folders, and then puffed up and filled with filler at the back ( just so it doesn't collapse!). Add grungepaper wings, letters from the
Lost and Found paper stack, and lots of lace!
The heart here is a papier mache or polystyrene heart covered with toilet paper ( in hearts of course) and then waxed with Ranger Beeswax.
The
utee heart was covered in Duo glue, and then gold Leaf from
Crafty Notions applied to it (on the website next week!) I added it on top of a
keyhole from Idea-ology, and hung the key below on the lace.
There are lots of elements, and I forgot to say the whole box was sprayed with
Ranger Color Wash, and then stencilled using their P
erfect Pearls mists giving a very light and subtle finish.
If you haven't made a Valentine's gift yet, then this may give you a few ideas!
Happy Valentine's Day
