Hello every thanks for stopping by, I appreciate you spending time here and hope you enjoy the post. It time for another new Challenge at That’s Crafty, and this fortnight the Theme is Girls will be Girls. There is loads of inspiration from my teamies so if you have the time pop over and have a look. One lucky crafter will win a £20 Voucher to spend in the lovely shop.
Here is my inspiration for the challenge, I was tempted to draw a face or have several girls on my page but that wasn’t working for me so I went for a gift. Well you know us girls can never have enough gifts can we, and as my gift is a handmade piece if jewellery all the better.
So here it is
I made the bracelet a while back and so thought I’d create a nice box to present it in. To present the bracelet I also decorated the 2×2 wooden block.
This is what I did.
I used Crackle Glaze on the box and then painted it with Terea Green and Granny Smith Fresco Acrylic Paint, all from Paper Artsy.
Next I took the wooden block and gave it two coats of Nougat Fresco Acrylic and stamped it with script with Archival Ink in Coffee.
I also added some stencilling using Dinky Stencils from That’s Crafty and more Archival ink.
