Large Suitcase + Graphic45 papers

Hi Everyone

With all these great cards/houses from our Design Team, thought i had better do some crafting myself

So have used a Large Paper Mache Suitcase

!st step - painted in and out of suitcase with Gesso - did two coats in all. then left to dry






2nd Part

Using Fresco Finish Chalk Paint, i painted suitcase, doing two coats in total
When dry, i cut a strip from the GRAPHIC45 COMMUNIQUE 12x12 paper pad



All other pictures are from the 12x12 COMMUNIQUE Paper pad









FLOWER
Iain cut the flowers for me
Used Tim holtz Big Die Tattered flowers - cream card
Stamped over the flowers using a general image stamp, using red ink
Then shaped flowers, and used glossy accents to stick together




FINISHED SUITCASE




Hope you like the finished suitcase
