Stamperia Inspired Book Box!

My very first project done for My Rusty Crowns blog! How exciting!

I went all out on this one! I even used the box all my Goodies were sent in!
I seen a video a while back using foam, so wanted to try that technique

I Started out with the USPS box, Cut it and turned it into a big book Box.

Next I used some foam sheets and cut them up into different sized rectangles.

I used Nuvo drops the add dots to each corner of the foam!

Adding Black Gesso everywhere!

Next I used some gel medium and stuck down a rice paper from the stamperia mixed media post cards

taking some acrylic paint I blended the paint into the paper and added some brick stamping from the Visible Image stamp set Teenage Kick

Here I make the "Book pages" using Modeling paste, I Smoothed it on with a palette knife and used a comb to give the "page" effect.

Here Im aging the pages with Coffee!

Now I use the Rust effect paste Starting with the darkest color and layering until I like the look!

Next I used Fractured Ice embossing powder  on my embellishments .

this powder looks different depending on the layer of color  underneath 

I used Stamperia moulds from the alchemy set. gear and cog chipboard and a hot air balloon chippie and that's it! I hope you all like it!
