Decorating the box

Hello everyone Today I will show you how to decorate your box with cool paper and use it with pleasure. From this Board of inspiration I took a wooden print and a delicate blue color

To work, we will need a jar, soil, paper, a holder or handle for the lid and flowers with lace

the box is carefully primed, so that the paper is well glued to it and that it will last longer for us

cut two strips of paper to fit the base and lid of the box

now carefully glue to the base, smooth it well so that it is tight

Cut out the circle and stick it on the lid. In the center of the lid with the help of an awl, we make a hole and attach the holder, I additionally used a thin decorative plate for beauty

At the end, I pasted pictures, flowers, a clearing, and a circle. All this is beautiful and cute to look at as a result.

Mixed media cards

Hello crafty people, this is Apoorva here.

Today I am gonna share with you my project for this month. I was inspired by the colours and the ocean theme from this our gorgeous moodboard...

I have created two mixed media cards as an inspiration for this month...

Below is the step by step pictorial of my project:

I took 2 white card bases measuring 5"×7"

Then I inked the edges of my card basees using color Burnt Sienna with the help of a foam brush.

Then for background I took 2 pattern papers from the paper pack "Four Elements EARTH " from ITD Collection. And I cut the paper measuring 4-3/4" × 6-3/4"

Then I distressed the edges of the papers using scissors. And inked them the same way as of card bases with the colour Burnt Sienna.

Than I applied a thin coat of clear gesso on to the papers

Then I took some white texture paste and mixed it with some tea leaves and applied it on to the papers using pallet knife. And let it dried.

Then I mixed some art stones with soft matte gel and pasted it on to the backgrounds and let it dried.

Once every thing dried completely I coloured textured part with the colours Teal and Burnt Sienna diluted with water and let it dried.

For the focal point I took chipboard embellishments and primed them with white gesso once it dried I applied same paste that I made earlier and let it dried.
