Pretty in Pink - Altered Box

Time for another great challenge at Splashy Mix Challenges.  This is the mood board for this month's challenge.  

I love the colours and textures of the mood board and they inspired me to create this project. 

 I chose to alter an old Christmas card box, which I had in my stash of things to alter.

This is the box that I altered.

This is my finished project.

Here are my steps that I used to create my altered box.

painted my box with a few layers of  white gesso

created a mould using Stamperia Texture Impression - Lace and Stamperia Cream Mixed Media Paste and adhered it to the top of the box

added gems and ribbon

painted the project with Pink Chiffon Pearl acrylic paint

used Metallic Gilding Polish and Pentart Gold Wax Paste to highlight the textures

and added metal findings, moulded heart, and gold wooden birds to complete the project

Here are some other views of the project.
