Raven treasure chest. By Zuzu


I am sharing this treasure chest style altered box this week. I have been readying myself for a steampunk Halloween event (lots of bands, entertainment, stalls and wonderful costumes) in Birmingham on the 27th of October. I have a wee stall there shared with a friend so have been making a LOT of boxes.

This is a nice big trunk shaped one and I have used the fantastic raven stamp "Airmail bird collage stamp" from HERE....
Apart from the stamp and a lot of paint and varnish etc, I also used one of the Ideaology ornate book plates and a set of the foundation feet from HERE...
See you next month

    Completely fantastic alteration... you'll sell out! Absolutely love the book pages, and that coppery paint finish. Wonderful metal adornments too! Hope Birmingham goes brilliantly...
