Hi everyone, today for my design team post at Craft
Consortium I am excited to share an up-cycling project using wooden packaging
that contained a sauce bottle from Christmas time.
I started by adding some brown paint to all the edges of
my box and then measured sections of paper from our Wood Textures pad and cut
to size. Onto all these sections I stamped on my flowers and foliage.
My watering can was stamped and fussy cut out adding my
stamped caterpillar and a little glossy accents to it. My flowers and butterfly
I added a decoupaged layer for extra dimension. My spade is cut from the Metal
Textures Pad for the handle and the base part was cut from cereal box and
coloured with a silver Promarker finishing off with some Distress Powder to
look like soil.
My plant pots have been cut again from the Metal Textures
Pad and using the Stamp Set from The Herbarium Collection I stamped onto coffee
stirrers. I filled with fussy cut foliage from The Herbarium Pad adding my
gardening tools and some 3D moss for modelling.
My table was made from the Wood Textures Pad adding some
more Distress Powder for soil, die cut gloves and metal embellishments also
from The Herbarium Collection.
The windows were die cut again from the Wood Textures Pad
adding some Satin Miri card behind them. My cat was die cut using the metal
textures pad adding a shadow layer of dark grey behind it.
My roof was cut into rectangles from the Metal Textures
Pad, inked at the edges and added on the roof to look like quarry tiles.
Some more photos to look at.
