\nWell Guys Happy New Year.. Hope you guys had amazing fun.. Well I did
\ntoo in my own quiet way.. But I am a kind of person who can enjoy
\nSolitude anywhere and anytime.. So I thought why not start the new year
\nby sharing a post on something I love.. And immediately I thought why
\nnot a post on crafting..  So today I am going to share some of the mixed
\n media and punch crafted Altered boxes I made for the kids who live next
\n door to me for their Crafting Project.. Well I love this project
\nbecause they provided me with a biggest challenge a crafter can get
\n“Keep It Simple” \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nSo here I stat with the images of the first Box –<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\nHere is another click from different angle –<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nWhat I did was color the entire box first with Black Acrylic Paint.. I added two coats of the same..Then I have used some Sizziz leaves die<\/a>.. The butterflies are the left overs of my Ek Success butterfly punch<\/a>.. (A nice way to mass produce butterflies and at the same time to create borders out of papers.. Don’t u think ;)).. The flowers are an old Punch bunch buys.. I hardly use them so thought why not.. Have decorated the flowers with pearls<\/a>.. I have also used some 3D outliners on eaves and butterflies..<\/p>\n

Now the second box.. this is more of Mixed Media..<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nSome more clicks from different angles –<\/p>\n
\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\nI took the acrylic paint and colored entire box white and let it dry.. Used some the borders cut by MS punches<\/a> and some lace.. Added them to create a layer.. Then I coated everything with pink acrylic paint and before it dries misted it with water thus giving a distressed and aged look.. For the focal point I have used an angel from Inkadinkado stamps<\/a>.. The sentiment is Papertry Ink stamp.. I have used some gemstones from my stash..<\/p>\n

And this completes my post.. Hope you enjoyed it and do share some feedback and love \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Happy Crafting,
