Steampunk Set - Anat Weksler

Hello sweeties!

It's Anat here with my new project - a Steampunk set.

I'm in love with these small tin boxes and as a chocolate maker I have so many of them, so I grabbed one and altered it, adding a matching card.

I have used so many of the Steampunk-industrial chipboards, which I love so much.

Both card and tin box backgrounds were coloured with green texture paste, chippies and metal elements were covered with rust pastes, here are the chipboard I have used:

Industrial Mixed Media box - Anat Weksler

Hello friends!

I'm here today to share another Industrial style Box, using some of the fabulous Dusty Attic's chippies.

No doubt I love altering different objects, especially Boxes. Sometimes I alter them using chipboards negatives (leftovers), texture pastes and paint and from time to time I like to use patterned paper, there are so many wonderful papers, right?!

On this box I have used some Industrial papers which have this amazing rust textures that I love so much.

Here are the beautiful pieces I have used:

GLIMPSE of heaven - Adri Du Preez

Hello everyone!

Welcome to the blog today. My June design team layout features beautiful Dusty Attic chipboard pieces.

This is a photo of my little grandson Janco and my granddaughter Mila when he was only a few days old. This was love at first sight. They are best friends and love each other dearly.

Here is my layout.

All the chippies were first covered with a layer of white acrylic paint, and then painted with Americana Acrylic paint.

The beautiful and perfect title, Foliage F10, and the Word Disk, Hello World were heat embossed with white embossing powder.

The Foliage #4 Heart Attack Panel was painted in Boysenberry Pink, and Poodleskirt Pink. I snipped it in five pieces and tucked them under the flower clusters.

I inked the bird nests with Chocolate Versa Magic Ink and the edges in Slate Grey. The eggs were painted with white acrylic paint and Slate Grey.

These stunning Wordpl@y elements were dry brushed with white gesso, Boysenberry Pink, and Poodleskirt Pink.

I painted the tap in Grey Storm and Grey Sky and dry brushed them with white acrylic paint. I popped some of the hearts out of the panel and glued them like water drops dripping from of the tap.
