Hi All
Today I have something different to show you I made a couple of weeks ago, it’s an alter box photo frame, it started out as a plain boring box and my fingers were itching to get it altered.
I painted it white, sanded, painted again, sanded and finally painted it for the last time (this is the boring bit lol) but it seals the paint into the wood this way. I then distress it with pink timmy ink and sealed it into the wood with a heat gun, this makes it bubble which I quiet like but you have to be careful not to burn the wood or your fingers.
I decorated the box with W/O flowers, I also distressed the big pink flowers with the same ink to blend in, finishing with pearls, ribbon and a charm.
This will fit an 8x8 card inside which can be decorated to the hilt, a scrap book page, min I might add or a picture of a loved one, I have not quiet decided yet but was thinking to give it to my mom with a decorated card inside, just for her.
I also am joining the linking party over at Passionately Artistic with this box, I have to say their creations are amazing and full of inspiration, I know I am going to learn a lot from these crafty gals who have also linked up too.
