Orange Love - Mixed media box!!

Hello all,

 Sudha Kabra on this side once again in front of you to inspire for our current ongoing challenge on Splashy Mix.. For this orange challenge I decided to alter Zoop watch box!!

Welcome to Splashy Mix Challenge!!

Here is our Moodboard for April

Here is my project:

I really love to create altered art and so this time I decided to reform Zoop watch box of my daughter and see how beautiful it turned out..

Supplies I used:

• White heavy Gesso by expressions craft
• Chalk paint by expressions craft - Orange and Green
• Resin made from the clay from Crafters Corner
• Metal embellishment
• Metallic wax from Art Alchemy from Crafters Corner
• Fevicryl Orange color
• Clear drops
• Stencils from Itsy Bitsy
• Texture paste from Expressions craft

Here are the steps how I created this:

• First of all I completely cover the box with white gesso to prepare base for mixed media.
• Then I covered entire box with green color chalk paint by dabbing technique and then I placed the moulds in desired manner.

• Let it completely dry.
• After that just color the resin embellishments with orange fevicryl color to give it bright orange color.
• Then just start highlighting the embellishments with silver metallic wax.

Ta da... my art piece is ready...

Looking forward to your beautiful enteries for the current challege and below is the detail of the prizes you can win sponsored by our dignified sponsors!!

Now let me share with you my project....a Spring Flower Decor! Because of the colors, I was trying to get it to not look "Fall". I wanted to give it a Spring look. So here is my process:

Supplies

Step 1: Paint the base color, inside and out

Step 2: Sponge paint at least 2 colors over the black

Step 3: Add cording or rope, beginning at the bottom

Step 4: If you have vertical "cracks" like I had, fill in the cracks

by gluing on some flat cording. (Optional)

Step 5: Add more orange cord to hide the ends of yellow cord

Step 6: Now add small cord on top of orange cord (Again, optional)

Step 7: Add orange cord on top edge of rim and yellow cord

on top of the cords on the base

Step 8: Add floral foam to the inside

Step 9: Add Sheet Moss

Step 10: Begin adding greenery and your floral

FINAL PROJECT

NOTE: To add to my mixed media Home Decor, I crocheted orange "slices" and

added them to the bottom of the flower pot

I hope that you enjoyed my project and that it gave you some inspiration! And be sure to join us by going to the current challenge tab and clicking the InLinkz button! Thank you for stopping by!

Blessings,

Jeanie Ellis
