Holiday Star Basket/ New Modern Gilding Powders / Kindness is like snow

Hi Y'all!
Robyn here
with a quick and easy 3D project for the holidays
or any holiday you can dream up!
Is it an ornament? candy basket? elegant table place setting?
Create without limits!




On the Mat

Assembly is just chose your papers, cut and paste.
The long  scored strip is the side of the box, fold and mess about with it before you add your adhesive to be sure how it fits.



I used Tombow  Mono Multi as it fast drying  with a strong hold, tiny tip, and still gives you a little time for wiggling about.

Modern Gilding Powder alchemy gave me a range and subtlety of vintage patina.
(note dots of Copper Scroll on the side panels)
The back Layer is straight Copper Scroll.
The next layer is 2 part Acanthus Teal to 1 part Kells Gold.
Measure the powders into a small clean jars and shake well.
The Flourish snow flake was stamped in Versafine spanish moss and
Gilded with Burnished Silver.
That layer was lightly edged with a VersaMark cube and Copper Scroll, then brushed with
Distress iced spruce and Delicata Silver.
Any spaces can be filled with the Zig embossing pens, and gilded.
I love how the ink pooled by the gilding.
The handle is gilded with Copper Scroll.

The stamp is found in the new Quietfire Design Holiday release
Kindness is like snow



The gilding powers can be used to create this texture or heated a bit more to give  a smooth and lustrous look.
We would love to see your experiments and creation with stamps, files and gilding powders.
on Facebook to inspire and be inspired.
