Hello, my dear crafty friends! Irit is here again and this is my totally Recycled and up cycled post.
This time a have a story to tell before I show you my project.
We live in a big 7 bedrooms house for the last 18 years. Great home to raise your 4 kids. But then kids are already grown- ups and on their own and there left just 2 of us and a fatty cat. So about a year and a half we decided to move to a flat. Apartment. 4 bed rooms (2 for my craft addiction).We bought this apartment and we are still waiting as this a huge new building and it takes ages to finish the construction. Lately we sold our house (finally) and were told that our new place will be ready in 3-4 months. So this project is a small recycled gift to myself and my DH. I am going to put the new key inside and to give it to my husband when time comes and as I do all interior design it's like my new baby I will present to him and to our cat... (lol)
So this is my totally altered candy box (the back is even not altered) found in my " junk box".
I used the cardstock inside to make this small town with Tando chipboards. I used a stencil to make the bricks over the bare chipboards, heat embossed the walls with Clear gloss regular embossing powder and the roofs with a few layers of Cardinal Red embossing powder. I made a moon/sun from the inside part of Tando Flowers chipboard and heat embossed with Sunny Yellow powder and covered the fences with Bright White embossing powder. The title was made from Tando letters and heat embossed with Ebony black powder. The mini key (so adorable) heat embossed with Metallic Copper powder and the background paper is MME.
The whole box was covered inside with washi tapes and some sticky lace on outside. The same washi and lace were added over the acetate outer box cover, with a piece of cut out paper and Let's celebrate today home made die cut from Die- Versions. The paper was heat embossed with Sunny Yellow powder and the die covered with glaze for the shiny look.
I think it's a lovely recycled project made with great products and I will keep it for a few months to add a real key inside.
Hope you like my recycled project this month and see you again next month with more WOW! INSPIRATION.
See your next month
