Hi Crafty Souls,
I am so so excited to be the Guest Designer on the Creative Artiste Challenge Blog today. The present month challenge is as always "Anything Mixed Media Goes".
I decided to create this mixed media watch box on steampunk theme and invite you all to join this month's wonderful challenge at Creative Artiste Blog.
Here I am sharing the quick step-by-step process : -
1) At first I pasted a piece of cardboard in the middle and another piece on it leaving the side area to make three layers like staircase and made check patterns with hot glue.
2) Then I put art balls at the edges of the second layer and applied modelling paste with number stencil on the two sides of the last layer.
3) After that I applied black gesso on it thoroughly.
4) Then applied the required base colours.... I adhered the coloured emblishments at the last and added corners. On the second layer I added coloured background diecuts.
5) At the end I highlighted the corners, emblishments and stenciled part with gold wax.
6) On the inside lid I decoupaged the picture and varnished all over the box.
My box is ready!
I hope you liked my creation and are inspired by this month's challenge too. My heartfelt thanks to Andree and the entire team for giving me this opportunity.
Please join us for this wonderful challenge and I can't wait to see your lovely creations too.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Please do leave your comments as I really love to read them.
Love and Hugs,
