"The Royal Jewel Box" Mixed Media Altered Box


So Spring is in the air and I got some creatin' to do! I love the warm weather it's no secret but Spring in Texas usually comes with it's ups and down as far as the temp goes. This year has been an exceptionally warm Spring. I feel so blessed so I think I'll take advantage of the warm Spring and just create!



OK so I wanted to keep this cigar box with just the modeling paste through the stencil but I did have a plan in mind.

                   TCW Light and Fluffy Modeling Paste through the Prima Demask Stencil

                                    Once dry I gave it a coat of black Gesso. Then let that dry.

OK I know you can't tell but I added the embellishments with are Amazing Casting Resin in a couple of Prima and IOD Molds. Then gave them a coat of black Gesso as well.

Then the magic happens...Prima Finnabair Acrylic Paints! Now I'm not too sure what colors I used but I do know Emerald Green and Ancient Coin were among the colors.

Once dry I antiqued the whole thing with some black acrylic wash.

After adding the colors I added a coat of spray sealer just to give it a little Gloss. I love it! It's just like the picture in my mind! Royal! So I had to add some patterned paper to the inside and it's finished!



Well it was short but sweet today! I hope everyone has a very Happy Easter and I'll be back here very soon. Till Next Time...
