Good morning!! Today is
Crafty Secrets New Products Challenge Day. Our DT Leader
Vicki Chrisman gave the
Crafty Secrets DT Members a challenge to create something with some of the Fabulous New
Crafty Secrets Products. There are so many Fantastic and Fun New Products from
Crafty Secrets, I know I can't wait to see what the girls have been busy creating. I have a link list at the bottom of this post so you can visit each of the
Crafty Secrets DT Members blogs.
Here is the project I created for today's challenge. I made a fun little beach theme shadow box. I used the
Travel Creative Scraps and
Bathing Beauties stamp set from
Crafty Secrets to create the shadow box.
I started by painting the box with sand and a rich brown acrylic paints. Then I did a little bit of airbrushing on the inside bottom of the box using
Copic marker BG15.
Next I stamped one of the images from
Bathing Beauties stamp set from
Crafty Secrets using Memento Rich Cocoa ink. Then I colored the bow with
Copic marker R27 and added Vintage Photo Distress Ink to the entire image and then cut out the image by hand.
I cut a large section of the
Travel Creative Scraps and added it to the inside of the box and I also cut out a few other images, inked the edges and added them to the shadow box as well.
Here is a close-up of the top of the shadow box. I have one of the images from the
Travel Creative Scraps with some moss, shells and beads.
Here is a close-up of the bottom of the box with more moss, shells and beads. I also added a piece of rope and an image from the
Travel Creative Scraps.
Once I had the shadow box done I misted the entire piece with
Tattered Angels Crushed Shells Glimmer Mist.
