"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).

"Never Grow Up" My "Gorgeous...."!!

Hello everyone. Want to share 2 layouts I made for Imaginarium Designs, using their yummy chipboards.

"Never Grow Up"

"Never Grow Up" Layout

How sweet my kids are in this photo. Love that they did not have any sibling rivalry at all. And how accepting and welcoming my girl is towards her little brother.

Love using raw chipboards, both negative and positive. So easy to layer and put together to create interesting and eye catching backgrounds or elements.

"Gorgeous Smile"

"Gorgeous Smile" Layout

I love this photo of my girl. She looks so sweet and pretty in this lovely dress. And love her smile. Here I used the negative chipboards as frames. Wanted to create a soft floral garden feel. The clay elements are made from scratch with Prima molds and clay. Love!!

"Create Your Own Dreams" Music Box

"Spread Your wings and let the fairy in you fly". "Create your own dreams where there is none!"

Hi, everyone. Today at Imaginarium Designs, we are creating off the page projects. I made a music box with fairy theme.

"Create Your Own Dreams"

"Create Your Own Dreams" Music Box

Using a music box base and Melissa Frances glass dome. Gesso the music box base, paint it with green acrylic paint, adhere art stones and Prima glass glitters with 3D gloss gel. Then added moss.

For the inside of dome, I stamped and colored a fairy and adhered together with diecut leaves and flourishes. Bend the chipboard fence slightly and adhered the fairy to the fence with 3d foam tape then adhered to base. Added a birdnest, wooden ladybug, a tiny squirrel, mushrooms and a diecut lamp post inside. Add moss to hide the adhesives used and any empty spaces.

"Create Your Own Dreams" Music Box

Gesso the chipboards and added some light watercolors.
