Sewing Box

Good Morning, fellow crafters and blog followers, hope your week has gone well. Now for the weekend and an extra hour in bed......yes.....

Today, I am going to share something different with you, not a card but a box!

This is my first play with this type of technique so please be gentle with me...

But it is good to try new things ....So I believe..

This is my finished sewing box,
 

 

This is the inside,
 

 

And this is the front,
 

 

A base layer of Gesso and then acrylic paint is applied to the box to start with.

Then I stamping onto white Tissue paper. I used a variety of colours of VersaFine ink and the Sewing Mends The Soul stamps from IndigoBlu.
 

 

I then cut these out, and yes there were a few of them ...but I did have my cup of coffee at hand and my Labrador Tess at my feet.
 

 

I then used Slap it On, (this is a type of Matt, glue and glaze from IndigoBlu) which I painted on to the box, carefully placed an image on and then re applied a layer of slap it on. 
 

 

A final layer of of the Slap it on was applied over the whole box, this took about an hour to dry and has a Matt finish.

I do hope you like this, I really enjoyed making it and I am now looking around to see what I can cover next.

Thanks for looking and call back soon,

Jo. X
