Celebrate Life! Enjoy Your Day.

 

Time for another great challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers this week.  The theme of this weeks challenge is "Things with Wings". 

I have used some designer paper that I altered for the background of my card. I stamped my moon with a stoneware texture stamp and the sentiment is an old Inkadinkado stamp. I also used several colours of Distress Inks.  The hawk is one of my favourite stamps by Sue Coccia Animal Spirit Stamp that I coloured with a gel pen and copics.

Mixed Media Altered ATC Box

Time for another great challenge at Creative Artist this month. As always our theme for the challenge is Anything Goes Mixed media.

Please make sure you use multiple mediums on your  projects.
Please respect that we do not accept Instagram entries. Only blog entries please.

This is my project for this month, an altered mixed media box I made to hold my ATC cards.

This is the curling iron box before I altered it.

I coated my box with gesso and used molding paste and a brick stencil for the background of my box.  The metal pieces are from metal scraps from my stash, mainly old metal belt pieces and some odds and ends. I coated the metal parts with acrylic paint in rusty metal colours  which I added some glass beads to give the pieces a rusty texture. 

I used an antiquing gel mixed with acrylic brown paint to give the box more of an aged look and I also sprayed the box with Tim Holtz's Walnut Ink Antiquing spray. 

Here  are some closer views.
