The Green Mixed Media Treasure Box

I am a huge fan of boxes ever since I was a little girl. I remember my mom arguing with me for always saving al kind of boxes. I felt like I had to adopt every single box that I touch ...lol.

When I discovered that you can actually make your own box, It was like in a dream.

That is what I love about Eileen Hull's Scoreboard Dies from Sizzix. You can make your own box out of so many materials.

I started this box by first designing my own paper. I used recycled paper from my printer. Using a @gelpress printing plate with acrylic paint I started printing my own paper. I added layers over layers of paint creating different patterns.

When done with the background layers I added some gold flower details, using acrylic paint and Eileen Hull's Watercolour Flowers & Lattice Stencil.

Using the same paper and Eileen Hull's Painterly Blooms & Background Thinlits Die by Sizzix , I did some 3d flowers. It is amazing how they look. So much texture, color and patterns.

With the remaining paper I did some cards to go with the Treasure Box. It is a great present for that special one. I really enjoyed making this project.

Detail photos of the cards will be included in the next post.

Eileen Hull - Chapter 2 - March 2024 Release Party

Another great release !!!! The dies are so incredible. They are SO easy to put together. I love making 3d projects and the Storage Box is the perfect one.

But I also love making books and the Mini Book Die is such a great one. So cute and easy to put together. There are so many possibilities.

Here is one of my Storage Box Project. I started by making my own washi tape. I did it gel printing recycled paper using a gel printing plate. After creating the washi tape I assembled the box and covered it all with my washi tape. Including the inside of te box and the lid. I wish you could see it in person. It looks great.

I did the flowers by hand one by one. I wanted to give it a wow look !!!

And to add more interest I decided to do a snippet roll that will go along with the theme and the color scheme of the box. I LOVED it all. It took me time , I enjoyed it so much, but I do love the final result. I can say it is one of my favorite piece of art. I truly hope that many people get the chance to see it and appreciate it up close.

I will be sharing many more projects using Eileen Hull's Chapter 3 dies. Of course many boxes and mini books besides more ideas for different projects.

Thanks for stopping to see my projects.

Hugs,

icad challenge 2023 - icad # 45 / 61

Start your day with a “Smile”. I like all that is going on with this iCad. Let’s start with the background. Using a @gelpress printing plate with @decoart paints I added some ‘ visual texture ‘. On top of dad I stamped and embossed some mandalas. For that I used @ranger_ink white embossing powder. Then I added some rub- ons . For the frame around the iCad I use @stabilo black Aquarellable pencil.

Icad Challenge 2023 - icad # 44 / 61

This is a very elaborated iCad. I spend quite some time making it. Starting with the background I used a @gelpress plate with @decoart paints . Also used @tcwstencils . On top of that I added layers of collage fodder. To the top left there is like a quarter of a circle . That is a coffee filter painted like the background but with different Decoart paint colors. Also I added some elements painted with my own designed paint rolls. To the right there are 2 mandalas. They are a result of many layers of paint. After that I cut them out of cardstock. Inside of the 2 mandalas there is a half circle. This one was done first using a stamp and embossing it with @ranger_ink white embossing powder. To finish it all I added some @tcwstencils White Pearl Modeling Paste.
Wow !!! It is amazing how much you can do with an index card in such a small format.
