Altered Vintage Pot

Another altered project.......This is a terracotta pot so I added a layer of white gesso to it before painting. Stuck the vintage picture with Mod Podge. Sponged the peach pearl paint all over the pot and the lid. For the top and bottom trim added a touch gold paint. Added the lace and the golden rope to the picture. 

Roses were made with Heartfelt Botanical Rose Stamp and die set.

 With 3D white paint added few swirls and dots to the fill the empty space.

Lady with a Pretty Hat Card

Lady with a pretty hat.....This project started with a picture from a very old craft magazine. I searched for the template online but since it was very old I couldn't find the brand or the name for the template.

I traced the image part by part, then with the help of Cricut design space I attached all parts to form the lady.....had fun doing it.

With the help of the Cricut Explore I cut out all the pieces. Inked the edges with Tim Holtz Vintage Distress Inkpad.The flowers are made with Heartfelt Creations Botanical Rose stamp and die set.

Birthday Gift Box

Hi friends I'm back after a long breakkkkkkk......two months of summer vacation, had fun with family and friends. Now I'm back to blogging , first I'll start with my gift box.

I made a 4" x  5" box with a lid . I had to use two 12 x 12 sheets of brown card (Itsy Bitsy) to make a box of this size.

I made the base with 6" x  6" card , scored 1 " on all sides. Snipped the corners and made it into a box base. Cut a piece of card to 5"x 10" and score 1" ,5" and 9". Stuck around the base starting with the 1" section .Cut another card to 5"x 8" scored at 4" and wrapped it around the the

base to form the sides.

For the Lid I used 61/8 x 61/8 scored 1" on all sides.

Using the DCWV Tradewinds stack cut 4 panels for the sides of the box. Recently I bought Heartfelt Creations Majestic bloom die and

stamp. In one cut I got 12 flowers....colored the flowers with distress inkpad , shaped them using embossing tool and added seed beads to the center. Glittered the edges of the flower. Adhered the flowers and leaves (Elizabeth craft die- Curvy Leaves ) to the lid and to one of the panels.

On another side I used chipboard pocket watch (Itsy Bitsy) colored it with touch marker.And for the other panels I used diecuts from spellbinders Sprightly Sprockets. At last added the sentiments to the box.
