Gift Box - Hello Love

Hi everybody,

For this first post as DT Member of Chocolate Baroque Team, I want to use the Mackintosh Window set.

I love these stamps, they are simple and intricated at the same time.

Materials :

Mackintosh Window set

Box 8x8 cm aprox. 3 1/8” x 3 1/8”

White Gesso Dina Wakley by Ranger

White Cardstock not too heavy,

Versamark

Clear Gloss Wow Embossing Powder

Heat gun

Distress Inkpads : Abandoned Coral, Festive Berries, Fired Brick, Mowed Lawn,  Pine Needles, Tumbled Glass, Black Soot

Distress Paint : Broken China

White Acrylic Paint

Brush

Embellishments (wood)

Ribbon (self adhesive)

Glossy Accent

Step by Step :

1.     Cover  the box  inside and outside with white Gesso and let it dry

2.     Stamp 3 times the chosen stamp with Versamark

and emboss  with Clear Gloss Wow Embossing Powder.  One piece must be a little bigger than the top of the box

3.     Colour bottom inside of the box with White Acrylic Paint,  the sides inside and all the outside of the box with Broken China DIstress Paint.

4.     Cut from one of the two smaller embossed cardstock, the flowers and the leaves all together and use this mask to cover the top of the box. 

5.     Colour with Distress Inkpad the background of the lid. Remove the mask and colour the leaves, the roses and the middle of the roses with the brush taking the different colours directly from the DIstress Inkpad.

6.     Glue the cardstock on the top of the box and trimm the excess if neccessary.

7.     Colour the flowers and the leaves from the third embossed piece, cut all round the shape (flowers nd leaves)  and glue it inside the box on the white bottom.

8.     Apply the self adhesive Ribbon  round the lid side of the box and glue the Embellishments with Glossy Accent

I like the little gift box, and what about you ?
