Its me Arpita, creative designer at @craftyscrappers,
and i hope you all are doing fine? As Christmas is just around the corner I am sure you all have started decorating your home and shopping for gifts,but I as a crafter always love to create my own decor and love to gift handmade presents for my loved ones.
So today I have made this beautiful altered bottle which sits beautifully on my table and can be a great christmas or everyday gift.
Hope you are inspired and would love to see your version of this make.
This inspiration project will sure to inspire you to create some stunning projects and to join in our ongoing
challenge#27: “spirit of Christmas”
which is ongoing over our Facebook page.
So this is what I made
A Brief Tutorial
- Applied 2 coats of white Gesso letting them dry between coats.
- To give texture I have randomly applied Crackle paste and the Craftyscrappers Granular texture paste randomly.
- Once the pastes were dry ,to add color I have used the Peacock Feathers, Posy Flamingo and Bronze Shimmer paints by altering colors till I was happy with the shades.
- For my focal point I choose a snowflake chipboard which I gave it a coat of Jingle Bell Shimmer Paste.
- To make the composition added a piece of gauze,some flowers,die cut,resin and metal embellishments
- and finally added a sentiment which I stamped from the Merry Christmas Stamp set.
- I then stuck a round mdf disc on top of the bottle to create a candle holder and the bottle was ready!
