ROSE GARDEN ALTERED BOX

I created this 'Rose Garden' themed box using papers from the 'Shabby Rose' collection by Stamperia.  The box itself measures 6 1/2" wide x 7" high.  After mounting it on 2" wooden beads for feet it sets  9" high.

Here's a close up of the mat that sets on the top.  I made the roses using 'Tattered Floral' die by Tim Holtz as well as a 'Five Petaled' punch by EK.  The greenery is made using varies dies by Cherry Lynn Designs.

Sunray design made with stencil sculpting paste.  Then coloring with Distress Ink.

I painted the edges of box with Gesso first then white acrylic paint.

The wooden beads were also painted with Gesso and then purple acrylic paint. That was followed up with a shiny clear spray.

I lined the inside of the box with white paper and added a lacy die on the edges.

Attached finished 2" wooden beads to bottom for legs.
