So much Goodness - Anat Weksler

 Hello dear friends!

It's Anat here, and today I want to share a Shabby box decorated with Gorgeous Dusty Attic's stencils and chippies.

Dusty Attic has some wonderful stencils; one of them is my absolute favorite - the Lace stencil.

It's role in my Shabby Box is pretty large, together with white crackle paste the texture achieved is just amazing.

On the box I have used papers by Karolina Bukowska for Mixed Media Craft O'clock.

On top of the lid some of my favorite chipboards, here they are:

Memory Holder - Deb Stephens - Mood Board Insprition

Welcome everyone, to my Moody Blues Mood board challenge. I took a blank photo holder and using some versatile Dusty Attic chipboard, made it into a small motivational piece that will hold memories.

I started with texture paste through the circle dot stencil (DA2625) on the front and back and let it dry. I then covered all the chipboard, clay hand embellishment and the photo holder in black gesso and let it dry.

I then adhered and layered up my chipboard and embellishments and let it dry. I spot covered areas that need more black gesso.

Once it was all very dry, I sprayed it with some Blue acrylic and silver mica stains. To finish off I rubbed areas of it with metallic wax in brushed iron and Blue Denim and used a matt White wax to highlight the hand more. I also added small bling charms to add sparkle. Lastly, I cut the quoted sentiment strip to fit and adhered it to the front with glue, before finishing off the edges with more blue metallic wax.

I hope this inspires you to get your entry in for the May Mood board Challenge!

I used the following DA products:

DA2625 Circle dot stencil

DA2583 Quoted Sentiments #3 Black

DA1953\ Industrial Hearts (only used the small size)

DA0689 Mini Cogs #1

DA2869 Industrial Wings #3

Shine like the Stars - Karan Gerber

HI friends and welcome back. I have a project share for you today designed for Dusty Attic. Todays project is a mixed media piece on a 6 x8 flat board panel.

The base  of this is a 6x8 flatboard canvas, inspired by moons by Nuneka, I really wanted to set out a starry night. Here in northern Ontario, the skies are filled with bright stars, and the full moon adds much light needed in an area where street lights are non existent

Using gel medium I began adhering all my elements to the panel, setting the large moon off the panel a bit and adding one of the smaller moons to the middle, 

I applied white gesso to everything once it was all glued down, when dry, I used  some fluid acrylic from Golden, and my favourite rust paste, 

Added in some Vintage Gold Paste and gold prills. 

The background in panel really does not do this project justice, it looks like a sheet of metal and I love how this turned out. I hope i have inspired you to try these out. 

Thank you for dropping by and I hope you like my project  this month, until next time, Happy Scrapping

Materials:

Mini Cogs #2; Big Moon by Nuneka; Moons #2, Industrial Stars ; Nuts and Bolts

Realty has limits .... - Pascale B Scrap

Hello Sweeties,

Today, I'm up on Dusty Attic blog with a new mixed media panel. 

To start, I glued different papers like tissue paper, kraft, book pages which I blended with white gesso. Next, I added a design with the Lace stencil and white crackle paste.

I primed all the chipboards with white gesso. I added a design on the Oval Frame Journal Box with the Flourish stencil and Paper paste. 

First I glued the Oval Frame Journal Box, then the biggest Decorative Frame #1. I continued with some Tropical Foliage #9, Foliage #4, and Ferns. In between, I added the smallest Decorative Frame #1. I added the main element of the canvas a big metallic flower and some pebbles which I covered with white gesso too. 

Next, I started to color the composition with blue and purple paints. When happy with the result, I dry brush the composition with white gesso to tone down the color. I used silver and gold waxes to highlight the details. 

To finish, I added some Golden Dragon Effect paste.
