''Memories'' - DT Altered Box for The Dusty Attic Blog June Moodboard

Hello everyone!

 Today, I'm up on the Dusty Attic blog and I would like to share my project created for the gorgeous June moodboard.

 

The elegant vintage feeling of the photos inspired me to create an altered box with lots of chipboards along with some flowers, laces and beautiful femine elements.

And some detailed photos...

 To start, I covered the box with white gesso and then I applied some white crackle paste here and there. Also added some white sand paste for more texture.

 Continued by coloring with the ''Sandra Dee Sepia'', the ''Steampunk Sepia'' and the ''Gag Me With a Spoon Gray'' Lindy's Gang sprays until I got the desired result.

 I colored all the chipboards with the ''Rustic Brown'' acrylic paint and I gently rubbed some ''Brushed Iron'' wax on them.

I added some art stones and I finished it off by rabbing some waxes to highlight some spots.

Dusty Attic chipboards used:

Scroll Set #1

Medallions

Wordpl@y #2 Black

Heart Attack Panel Small #2

That's all for today my friends!

Thank you for stopping by!

''Memories'' - DT Canvas for More Than Words Challenge Blog

Hello my dears!

I'm back tonight to share with you my project for More Than Words challenge blog. 

This month we have a very interesting and so inspiring challenge. 

 

Word Inspiration - MEMORIES

Creative Challenge - FRAME

"A life without MEMORIES... that's no life at all!" I chose to use that quote on my project because I do believe that to be true. Memories are the treasures of our lives. For the creative challenge, I have used a large resin FRAME.

Here are some close ups...

To start, I covered the canvas with white gesso. Then, I applied some white crackle paste here and there and then I created more texture with modeling paste and a stencil.

I added color with the ''Whale Watch Blue'' Lindy's Gang spray. I made a little stamping and then heat embossed the pattern with the ''Midnight Bronze'' Lindy's powder.

 I used the Finnabair Sparks ''Magical Pond'', ''Mermaid Sparkle'' and ''Steampunk Copper''  acrylic paints to color the resin frame. After that, I gently rubbed on it with a small brush some ''Bronze Age'' wax. I treated the same way all the Dusty Attic chipboards I added.

When everything was glued down, I added some art stones and sprinkled a little blue glitter on them.

Mixed Media & Art April Challenge - Deep Inside

I was inspired by the sketch which I've rotated and by the beautiful color palette.

That was all from me my friends!
