{My DT work for STAMPlorations}
Hi everyone! Happy Sunday! And that brings you to Sunday Stencil #5 and August Mixed Media Challenge at STAMPlorations blog.
I altered this pizza box to fill in a travel mini album {still in the making, smile} for my niece birthday end of September. So I have ample time to make her the album. Zahra' and her parents went to Korea in July so I thought it would be neat to present her a travel theme gift for her 16th birthday.
At first I wanted to make it shabby chic but decided a vintage style would fit the paper collection better and I'm very happy with the end result.
Supplies used: STAMPlorations Foiled Again Stencil, STAMPlorations Artsy Border Maker Stamp, Versafine black ink pad, Kaisercraft Now Boarding Collection, Alpha gesso & modeling paste, Tim Holtz Distress ink pad, Tattered Angel glimmer mist, Sizzix machine, Heartfelt Botanical Wings die, watercolor paints, black gel pen and from my stash: gauze, gem, buttons and kitchen slip mat for stamping

This was how it looks like in the first place:

Teus trabalhos são sensacionais.
Hehhehehe - YEAH - so fun that you used a pizza box Asmah. LOVE how it turned out...great textures and colors. Wouldn't it be fun to make a homemade pizza - put it in that box and deliver it to a friend. I love homemade pizza!!! GREAT project! Thanks for sharing. j.
ReplyDeleteI never thought of it Joi, yup, great idea and I will keep it in mind! Thanks :)
DeleteTotally in awe of this project, but one thing I just threw out the small pizza box I had which came with a delivery of craft goods and it has gone to the tip....would love to try this one though.xx
ReplyDeleteI love how you turn everyday items into little treasures
