STAR BOX

 

 

 

Hello my Lovely Ladies...
I finally finished the lid to my box, I made a few black flowers and ended
up just using one, I think it was the pretties one, might be the sparkle :O)..
When I added the sequined kinda of heart, it was off an old dress and the
black dangly necklace piece, it was a little heavy so I made a stronger
lifter upper, LOL to pick it up, it was an old earring.
I added an old silver shoe buckle and a big black bead and 2 other pair
of earrings on either side.
Added some lovely feather from Tonniece, a couple of little white flowers.
Of course I had to add the nest with some lovely eggs inside.
I'm still working on the Monastery :).
Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful day..
NAMASTE!!!!

SOME CLOSE UPS

 

 

 

WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE.

I just got to my desk yesterday, and have a few thing happening:)..
I made the star box a while ago, but I had no idea how to decorate
the lid.
I added some acetate under the punched boarder to strengthen it.
I made some flowers from crepe paper, I have half a shoe box of old
crepe paper, do you remember when it was thick and double sided,
different color,its very thick and lovely and sturdy,.
I found a couple of videos how to make flowers with crepe paper.
Mine came
out a little different,,
I like how they turned out.
The one with the read clip on it is or was a deep purple one one side a
pale greyish mauve, I made the flower then rubbed it in black soot.
I sprayed it with water to mix the ink, but when it got wet, I became
dark purple, will se how it looks when dry..
I have some feathers to add and a few bits and bobs..

 

 

I wanted to empty the ink I made so,
so I sprayed, dropped it in blobs, blew it with a straw,  I let it run on the page..
 I used my walnut ink for the first time in oh my 2 years.
It's been sitting in my fridge and ageing.
I sent some in my giveaways and poured a ink bottle full myself.
I did the same thing,dropped it blew on it ran it along the tags.
The ink is quite dark, black walnut:):)
I'm going to put some in a spray bottle and add alcohol, see if it lighten
it up.
I'm also working on my umm, houses, umm Monastery it seems to becoming:O).
Show that soon,
Thanks so much for visiting....
NAMASTE!!!!

Finally get to post the shoe, today was Tonniec's BD so we went out
for lunch down by the Bay Pier 4 (Lake Ontario)
Had some lunch and she opened her gifts there, fun time had by all..
Lots of pics:).
I had the shoe gessoed last time I posted it.
I used Tim's inks with felt pad and pounced red green and blue.
I stuffed the shoe with quilt stuffing.
I added liquid gold leaf with a feather.
Added a piece of card stock to match on the back of the heel.
I added ribbon, from Tonniece, I gathered it to make a frill.
Made a bow out of it as well.
I took apart a necklace and fit it around the shoe, made some
dangles off the back, love that part:).
I added a piece of it on the middle of the bow.
I covered the bottom with red felt..
