Love Packed in Box

Hello guys,

I am Back on TECS, this time with a gift idea for Mother's Day. Mothers are everything to us and I am sure, none of us would like to leave a chance to make them feel special . Let's get going !

To begin with I have a beautiful carved box from TECS, all their products are super strong and smooth.

There is no need of sanding required. Using the stencil, I created some texture on the base.

Now,  once the texture paste is dry,  varnish on the texture,  so that it doesn't spread while painting above.  Now I painted the whole box with this beautiful wine red chalk paint from Anra Crafts.

Using a decoupage paper,  I pasted the inner base with these cute deer's..  Looks like a mom and daughter to me  isn't this print beautiful? 

Now the top flap of the box I applied crackle medium and painted with a cream for the red cracks to show.

I took one more decoupage paper with beautiful flowers and randomly cut them to do volume decoupage.

Pasted the fussy cut flowers on to the sospeso sheet and fussy cut and embossed them to make a beautiful floral arrangement for the top of the box.

Added some pollen and pink glitter to add some interest.

Finished the arrangement by adding a sentiment "Memories" In the center.

So,  this is how the box looked once done. 

Now,  to make it look more vintage,  I added these metal legs from the Anra Crafts metal embellishment collection.

I totally love the outcome,  and hope my mom would love this too

My Mom's Treasure--Recipe Book

Hi Crafty folks,

This is Anjali Sharma, designer@ the element craft studio and today I am here with a very interesting project “My Mom's Treasure--Recipe book”. I always follow my mom's recipes whenever I cook her signature dishes and always need to reconfirm the ingredients and process....

So here is an outstanding idea developed by TECS for all Mom's girls to keep recipe treasure with us whenever, wherever we want---A Recipe book with revolving stand.....Here is my version of this recipe book---

Products used from the store:

-Revolving mdf stand with blanks
-Mdf embellishments 

-Mini Shakers

-Mum’s recipe patterned papers 12 inches
-Mum’s recipe patterned papers 6 inches

-Messy Green Chalk paint

-Grass Field Glimmer dust

Here are quick steps to make the album-

- firstly I have colored the base stand with chalk paints( you can use desired color) and stenciled glimmer dust by mixing it with clear gel texture paste.

 

-Now I prepared album blanks by adding patterned papers on both sides of each mdf page of the album.

-I have added recipe notes on each page of album which is already in the pack.

-on pages, I have added elements like envelope using papers from the same pack, recipe tags from the small 6x6 papers pack, fussy cut embellishments given in paper packs.

- I have embellished the album with fussy cut elements from the paper pack and mdf embellishments which is available in matching theme from the store.

-for the cover I have layered cut out from the paper pack and embellished with some flowers, laces, mdf embellishments and leaf die cut outs and we are done!!!

Hope you guys liked the project!!

Do share your feedback and reviews.
