Wedding box

Kolejny ślubny box, tym razem bez miażdżących wyzwań.

Więc poszło w kierunku bieli, różu i kwiatów. 

Wszystkie tekturki pokryte białym embossingiem. 

Ach, kiedy doczekamy się oryginalnie białych tekturek... 

Imagination

It's my very masculine and very textured card 

and the sentiment means: 

"Imagination will take you anywhere"

so I'm joining the Journey challenge over Mixed Media & Art.

and the SASPC September Challenge: Steampunk/Industrial

Football

Była misja: box ślubny dla gracza komputerowego oraz piłkarki nożnej!

No nie ma chwili spokoju i lekkich tematów :-)

Cóż zrobić, trzeba dźwignąć temat i połknąć żabę.

Z pomocą przyszły tu tekturki z Filigranek: piłka i konsola. 

Piłka oryginalnie jest w stanie jak widać poniżej więc sklejenie jej

nie należy do łatwych, lekkich i przyjemnych ale jak widać, da się. 

 

Konsola, wraz z milionem drobniutkich elementów też była wyzwaniem.

Box już u zaślubionej pary, mam nadzieję, że się podobał :-)

It's a Wrap

Here we come with another Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge 

which theme this week is IT'S A WRAP 

which means we'd like to see your packaging projects. 

As always you can win a $50 voucher to spend it 

at Simon Says Stamp Store. 

Yesterday was my parents' 45th wedding anniversary so I made a box

as a packaging for the gift I bought them. I made it from scratch, 

here below you can see how :-)

I started with cutting a very thick cardboard to the sizes I needed.

I covered it all with a thin layer of white gesso making a bit of texture, too.

Then I tore the collage paper and placed it with collage medium.

I also colored the flowers and leaves using Dylusions sprays.

After they were dry, I covered the painted elements with micro glaze medium

and sprayed the backgrounds with some brown and golden sprays.

I also splashed them with ground espresso to give more interest.

Finally I stamped a fern with oxide ground espresso ink 

end embossed it with clear embossing powder. 

After all the parts were done, I glued them with collage medium

and added the top fixed on a strip of canvas to can open it as a flap.

My parents loved the box so I hope you like it too :-)
