Missing the Lovely School Days

Here's what i did for the August DT Assignment with the theme of "What i've learnt" and school themed. I altered the Smash box cover for this DT Assignment.

I started off by placing the Prima stencil over the Smash box for masking with Tim Holtz's Cranberry Adirondack Color Wash.

Next, i used the leftover Prima Coquette Collection Chipboard Alphabets as a stencil to mask the alphabets onto the Smash box and to tie in with school theme.

Here's how it looks after the masking.

Another layer of masking in white was done to create texture with Studio Calico's Calico White Mister Huey's Color Mists.

I also did some misting on the black fabric surface of the Smash box.
 
Loving the faint image created on the fabric.

Clear Rock Candy Distress Crackle Paint was added onto the fabric surface.
