Crafty-Emblies challenge
Hi everyone ... the new Crafty-Emblies new challenge has gone live .... and just incase you didn't know the challenge is open to Altered Art projects AND paper-craft and card makers too .... a fabulous opportunity for everyone to enter.... So if you fancy the chance to win Crafty-Emblies goodies then pop over now ... there is also a "Anything Goes" theme on a permanent basis....
OH and even MORE good news ... Crafty-Emblies are celebrating the purchase of their NEW machine and are offering a 25% discount on all orders till the end of the week so hurry on over ..
Ok so what did I make .....
I decorated this box for my friend, who's birthday was this weekend just gone .... she likes Shabby Chic but always complains that she can't do it ... so I did my version of Shabby Chic for her .... I pained it white first the pained it with some gold paint, then dry brushed white over the top .... The Crafty-Emblies I chose to use were the 'love birds' and the flowers ....
I LOVE how versatile these little birds are and the flowers are great to put on nearly everything ... I dry brushed them all with white paint to give a Shabby look to them .... I also layered the flowers on top of each other ... all the flower shapes work so well together so layering then like this is easy....
Lastly I made a small flower from lace and added some small ribbon to it ... and then added punched out leaves and small paper roses ...
Hope you like it :) and I hope my friend does too ..
Thanks for stopping by
