Off The Rails Scrapbooking Blog Hop

Hi, everyone. This month we at Off The Rails Scrapbooking are having a special blog hop. The theme is fun, bright and colorful.

You should be arriving from Elisa Ablett's blog: http://2crazycrafters.blogspot.sg/
If not, do go over to Off The Rails Scrapbooking for the complete list.


Here's what I have created:

"Magical Forest" Shadow Box

"Magical Forest"

I gesso the whole paper mache shadow box, adhered some twigs with heavy gel medium. Then I cover the box with sand texture paste, crackle paste (randomly) and watercolored with Ecoline Liquid Watercolors. Love how bright they are. I did put a coat of gesso wash over to dull the brightness abit. Sprayed some mists inside box to highlight the crevices and cracks. Then distress the edges with black soot distress ink.

"Magical Forest"

Stamped and adhered 2 fairies along with Prima flowers and resin mushrooms. Lastly I used 3D Jewel paint to create little glittering dots (like stars).

"Magical Forest"

Now, please hop over to Lynn Good's blog,  http://memoriesonthepage.blogspot.sg/2016/05/off-rails-blog-hop-6-may.html
