Altered 3D Recipe Box featuring Family Recipes- with Solange

Solange

Hello everyone! It's Solange Marques here!
Today I'll share with you a project using the new Family Recipes collection.
I simply fell enchanted with this collection and I've made a Recipe Box:

First of all, I applied black gesso and then white gesso all over the box and I used a sandpaper on the edges. Then I've applied Pentart Chalkboard paint on the cover of the box and the I've used a Bobunny mask stencil with chalk. To finish it I've glued  down some fussy cutting from this collection.

The sides of the box I've decorated with papers from Family Recipe collection:















On the inside of the box I placed the recipes cards with a few of my most loved recipes:

Family Recipes-Cards, Cards, Cards! With Katherine


Hi BoBunny Fans,

Katherine here and today I am sharing some cards that I made using the new Family Recipes collection.

Here are the cards all together, I used the 6" Family Recipes pad for all of the cards as I love the smaller sized designs for 6 by 4" cards.

For this card I started with the Bon Appetit paper for my background and then added a little area of thick Gesso in the centre with a palette knife.  Whilst that was drying I then curled some strips from the Thyme paper, and matted and layered my sentiment.  I cut out some oven gloves from the 6" paper Pantry - they are the perfect size for cards!  I added wire behind them so I could hang them from my the central sentiment.  As a finishing touch I used the frame from the Congratulations die set.

For my next card I started off by layering up the Cuisine and Thyme papers as well as making my own tag.  I added some stamping using the circle stamp from the Doodles Stamp set with gold embossing powder.  I then added lace and my tag.  The next layer was the Tick-Tock die-cut.  This dies has really fine detail and it cuts beautifully.  In the centre of the clock I added a yellow pansy, then for a little more glamour, some 3D balls and some of the beautiful Confetti paste in Gold.

Here you can see the Doodles stamp and Confetti Paste.  I love how the chunkiness of  the Confetti  Paste stands out and catches the eye.

For my final card, I used the Mandala die as the central element - I layered it up and trimmed it to fit. I used the long Happy Birthday sentiment and cut it in two, then layered some thick weave burlap behind it and also circled it with wire.  I added some Rich Gold Metallic Glamour Acrylic to both the fabric and metal and it took really well.  A little bit of bunting and some more confetti paste and my card was done.

Garden Party-A Decorated Planters Box with Ulrika

Garden Party Flower Tray by Ulrika Wandler

Summer is coming to an end here in Sweden, northern Europe. But I still want to see some flowers, so I altered this flower tray. It was painted white already, but I added some papers and embellishments.  Here is the "before" picture . . . .

My first time making these paper rosettes, I guess you can tell that by the looks of them... But I will make them again, and I think I will be better at it!

These lasercut chipboard hearts are also so cute! Very pretty to use as
they are, but fun to paint. I first made them black simply using a ink
pad. After that I added Pentart Chameleon Wax Paste for that shimmery greenish finish!
