Window Box by Rachel Harries
11:00
I start by using gesso around the edges of the back plate and covering the base plate of the Upright.
I then adhere the paper to the back plate, then sand and ink the edges to give a nice finish.
I stamped on the base, coloured and inked the edges.
I glued the upright together.
I then added a little Sand Texture Paste to a few places on the window and cogs.
I assembled the cogs in a way that was pleasing to me adding some extra pieces.
I took a small piece of greyboard and moistened it with a water spray before running through a woodgrain embossing folder.
I then popped the pieces in my spraying box and used Ayeeda Mist in Pastel Blue and Patina Bronze for my first layer.
I Dry brushed a little white gesso on the window box element and added some touches of a rusty coloured paint on all the pieces and started to assemble.
I stamped, coloured and fussy cut some of the flowers.
I added the flowers to my piece and then stamped on the upper part of the upright just to give a little more balance to the overall look.
and that's my window box.
