Today was a gorgeous, beautiful day outside ---was torn between being out with the girls or playing in my SB room. For starters, I put the finishing "copper" paint coat on my little stool. Now I have to decide how I want to add the Patina to it. I know I want a Turquois color, have been experiementing on some painted boards with various paints and stains--but no luck yet having it look like I invision it. Will continue to work on it.
In my SB room, I played with a variety of projects I have seen on blogs I follow. This one is sort of fun. Witches "legs" filled with p-nut m and m's, witches boots cut from a cricut cart with a circle folded on the top and stapled onto the legs.
Put this junk binder together with a book I got last weekend while junking. Used the cover for the kids "sky diving" book--if the weather ever co-operates so they can jump. At least I'm partly ready.
I haven't done any of the inking or stamping. Still have a lot to do on it, but the "bones" of it are started.
These are a couple of the pages inside of it.
And last, today, I worked on these little 4 x 4 gift boxes.
They are made from square coasters, sprayed with dylusions sprays or pearl mists, then stamped with Taylored expressions stamps, colored with copics--------
then five holes are punched in each side and they are laced together with ribbons.
A separate coaster fits snuggly in the bottom (with a little glue to be sure it stays) and waalaa, you have a cute little box to fill with a bag of candy or other small gift. Add a little co-ordinating tissue around the gift and your little box is complete!
Oh, and I just spritzed the inside of the boxes with the spray mist also for color. That's how my day went--about ready to take the girls out one more time and call it a day. Tomorrow--????--not sure-- need to straighten my room and go and find some tiny rubber feet for my little stool and maybe some more outdoor time. Happy crafting everyone!
