Altered Box |
Hi friends it's cold here in Bangalore and to bring in a little warmth, I made an altered box with warm golden hued flowers!
|
Hibiscus |
The Hibiscus is a popular flower in India and though I am no
stamping- inking expert I was happy I could get an ombre like gradation of colors on my gold embossed Hibiscus [ made using Ryn's gorgeous stamp] using several shades of Distress Inks .
I made the yellow- green background using Distress Inks and created the white dots using a white gel pen similar to my
Happy Ombre Stars Card.
|
Thai Clay Flowers |
I love making flowers from different media and the
Plumeria flowers and buds you see on this box were made using
Thai Clay [ also seen in this project : Thai Clay Plumeria Bonsai] |
Altered Box |
And if you are wondering what treasures my altered box holds.....hehe I am just using it to store some die cut flowers soon to be made into 3 dimensional blooms!

The white cardstock on the background has a
brick design embossing and I inked the edges in shades of green and brown .

Altered Box |
The corners of the box have metallic filigree corners and one corner has a fluttering golden butterfly with a rhinestone chain and some magical golden balls and jewels!
|
Thai Clay Flowers |
Thai clay is pure white and once I made my plumeria flowers, shaded the centers using a paintbrush and yellow oil paint .The stems of the flower buds were shaded green using finger tips dipped in green oil paint!

I hope you liked my altered box with its summery blooms!
