Mixed Media Altered Box


I have a mixed media project to share with you today. I bought this little wooden box at the local craft store for $1 so I knew I wasn't going to be too upset if what I planned didn't work out.

I started by painting the inside and outside of the box with a couple different colors of the Silk Acrylic Glazes I recently acquired at the CK Convention. I stamped and added some die cuts from K & Company and then added some texture with modeling paste and a little cheese cloth.

I added a piece of patterned paper to the inside of the box and went
over it with some iridescent gel medium. I added some lace that I colored with glimmer mist along the edge of the lid.

My final touch was the flat-backed pearls and a dragonfly die cut.

I didn't really keep a list of all the products I used and the stamps came from various classes I have taken over the last couple years at CKC. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions (cibglazer[at]gmail[dot]com).

If you follow my blog, I'm sure you know who walked away with this little beauty...yup, my daughter.
