3 of the boxes were created very similar.
I wet a strip of paper and crumpled it up.
When dry I adhered it to my box.
When dry I adhered it to my box.
I applied Victorain Velvet and Weathered Wood Distress Stain to the flowers,
to change their appearance.
I first applied gesso to the wooden hinge, then applied Picket Fence Crackle Distress Paint.
(if you don't the Crackle paint will just flick off!) I then wiped on some Weathered Wood Distress Stain and applied Crackle Accents to seal it.
I couldn't find brads that I liked, soooooo I rubbed them in Distress Embossing Ink
then dipped them in Frayed Burlap Distress EP.
When cooled I flattened with a hammer!

The background of 4 of the boxes were made by first painting each box with Gesso.
I applied a layer of Multi Medium then squinshed up a piece of dictionary paper
I applied a layer of Multi Medium then squinshed up a piece of dictionary paper
into the medium. When dry, I lathered on some Weathered Wood Distress Stain.
Next came a layer of Gesso. When dry, I sanded the raised surfaces and swiped on more Weathered Wood DS. To finish off the box, I applied some Sepia Archival Ink.
Another beauty......
Love the vintage lace and faux pearls!
