Book Box Card

Hi Blogging friends here is the.......... final,  absolute finished,  nothing else to do  and  I  promise......... Book Box Card.

I just wasn't completely satisfied so have added a little extra and here it is.

A few little trinkets to finish it off.

Front Cover

 

Inside

 

That's it all done, hope you have enjoyed watching this little box evolve.

 

I only realised when I looked more carefully at what I had made that I had almost without thinking created a story by adding the gentlemen on the inner page. One can just imagine them being part of the journey and collecting the tickets and other little items on their way and storing them inside the box and for this reason,

 

I am planning to enter this Book Box at SanDee and Amelie's Steampunk Challenge Blog as this month the challenge is

'Steampunk Stories'

Hope you will pop over to see what else there is.

Happy crafting,

WOYWW 277 # What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

A big welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends.
It's come around again, Wednesday I mean.

Angela here to show you:
"What's on my workdesk this Wednesday"(WOYWW).

 
If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the

Stamping Ground and our dear host Julia will explain and all will be revealed.

 

Anyway back to my desk Lol!

 

This week I have been working with a Masterboard which was sent to me by my friend Gloria.

Each month we both make a masterboard and swap them, then make something using these papers and send them back.

This is great fun and you never know what the other person is going to do until it pops back through the letterbox or the postman knocks on the door.

Great fun and it's just like Christmas opening the parcel.

 

So here's my offering for this month.

 

Gloria's Masterboard looked like this:

 

 

And this is me working on the project.

 

 

Sorry, you are only seeing a little bit of desk on this post.

If you were here earlier this week you will have already seen it,

but not this!

 

The Front Cover.

 

I covered the centre of the ballooon with Tim Holtz clear Crackle paint and then went over it with green ink when set.

I have sealed the crackle with Mod Podge glue to ensure the crackles don't break off.

 

 

A little peek!

 

 

And this is the inside.

This is what I call a book box, simple to make as it is just a flat, shallow box base and a cover.

I have cut out some of the airships from the Masterboard and attached them with 3D foam stickers and added stickles glue and 3D glaze.

I have also used some of Tim Holtz Ephemera: Expedition which can be seen inside the box.

 

 

 

And here is:

The Back Cover.

 

 

I would like to say it's finished but you never know Lol!

I may add a little something extra to the inside, it feels as though there should be something else there, we will have to see.

 

Hope you enjoyed looking and thank you for visiting. It would be nice if you could pop over to see some of the other desks on view today at the Stamping Ground.

 

Happy crafting,
