Love Explosion box!

Hello everyone! Welcome to a brand new post at Crafters Corner Blog!

 Hope your day is going well? For today's post I wanted to make something fun n pretty so I created this Explosion Box card in brand new Dimensions! 

Here are some pics! 

Aren't these prints gorgeous? Its the the Prima Marketing- Rose Quartz collection! This collection is so pretty, the prints are lovely! And the colours are perfect for a love theme project!

Here's how I did up the lid- with Gorgeous Prima Marketing flowers! The best part is our store carries all co-ordinating flowers and embellishments to the new collections launched at Cha2017

So you can pick the perfect colour matched embellishments for your projects!

Andd here is how i did the inside of the box! The gorgeous flowers with my all time favorite Dress my Craft sequins! 

I've created a message bottle using these Mega size cork bottles from our store!

Added these pretty die cuts and some metal charms from the store to make some tags!

So now lets get started on how to make this pretty Explosion Box! 

So we start with 5 pcs for the construction of the base- 

2pcs measuring 7 x 4.5 inches 

2pcs measuring 7 x 3.5 inches 

and 1 pc measuring 4.5x 3.5 inches 

Now score and tape- the pcs measuring 7x4.5 and 7x3.5 inches

Attach them to the 4.5x3.5 inch pc

This is how the base will look once you finish sticking all the pcs together. 

I've cut 8pcs of pattern paper from my paper pad. 

Sizes - 4pcs measuring 3x6 , 4x6

Next I've distressed them with Spun sugar distress ink

Next i've cut some gray cardstock from the AC cardstock neutrals pack

Size - 4pcs- 6.25x 4.25

4pcs- 6.25x 3.25 

To decorate my glass bottle I decided to use these amazing rub ons by Prima marketing!

Cut the design and rub it on the bottle. Make sure you rub well and remove all the air bubbles otherwise the foiling wont be neat

Next place a piece of foil and rub it well 

And voila! You are done! 

I've cut some more pcs of pattern papers to make message rolls for the bottle!

Tied them up using Prima Wire thread! 

And embellished them with these Super Cute butterflies!

Now its time to embellish the box! Used these pretty Prima flowers, Dress my Craft Sequins, metal charms , glass bottles and more!

Next I've taken this Bottle cap by Prima and made a pretty pc for the lid! 

Hope you all enjoyed today's post!

Looking forward to see your versions to the Explosion box!

Have a great day!

Love

A black makeover

Hello everyone! Hope you all are doing well! Today I'm here to share a brand new tutorial with you covering mixed media techniques and how to alter a LaLa Land crafts shadow box card! Let's see first what it looks like! 

Here are few different angles for to admire :P

Look at these gorgeous pearls from the store....
Omg they are so killing!!!!

Do you guys like it? 

I am sure this is adorable :P

So let's get started 

Here is my base to start with ...

I picked up this beautiful La La Land photo frame to alter......

Since it was a steampunk theme so i followed the same thoroughly....

Here is what the package looks like. It comes will all these pcs along with an instruction manual telling how to assemble it.

Its an ultimate to piece to adore , alter , or gift...

I started with my Prima chalkboard paint ....though we have many more beautiful shades but i decided to choose black n golden....
So i chose the black color!!!

The first thing I did was to paint all the pcs with Black chalkboard paint by prima. I absolutely love the chalkboard range by prima marketing these are amazing and the finish is excellent and our store has recently got all the lovely colours!  

I am sure you will drool over them!!!

Next i started assembling the Base. I've used glitter glue for this step as it dries clear and is mess free. 

U can use glossy accents or tacky glue too but i think i m addictive to this glue :P

I've taken a very grunge looking chipboard pc from Dusty attic and I started painting it with a gold paint by Dusty attic

Next i added 2 of these paints by Prima marketing on top of that piece. 

Taking a piece of chipboard for the photography I've made a border using Rose gold paint by prima marketing 

Next i stenciled the Base using Gel beads paste (micro fine beads)by Liquitex and layered 2 paper clay 

embellishments and some fishnet that is  available at Crafters Corner

Check my previous post to learn how to make embellishments using Prima moulds with paper clay!

Here= Prima Marketing - Paper clay and Vintage Art Decor Mould 

now I'm adding some more textures to my piece I'm using this gorgeous pearl string from our store and next i have randomly added some glitter glue and covered it with Prills 

Do check below in pictures :

To give an awesome glaze i used the new Art anthology dimensional magic.

Here i have joined the picture with the frame.

Now comes the top part of the frame.

Now taking this thread i am attatching this beautiful key from the store.......

I have played randomly with them doing stenciling and using some chipboards from the store.
Then i added them on the front base and adhere them with glossy accents.

Here comes my final beads to be added .....
Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy....
I love them ....
