Technique Tuesday ~ Shrine Box

Shrine Box

by

Judy Cantrell

 The image (window) was stamped on a piece of paper to enlarge on clear transparency film using a home printer/scanner. Xyron adhesive was applied to the back of the enlarge window. On a separate sheet of copy paper I applied a direct to paper with distress ink. The transparency window was applied to the paper and cut out with a stencil tool to expose the window opening. Set this aside.

 The image was inked with Archival sepia on glossy cardstock. Watercolor crayons were used to color my image. A DaVinci image was applied to the window frame (shrine).

A box was made to fit the shrine using a box maker.

Kraft paper was distressed with ink and applied to cover the box. The shrine (window) image was applied to the back of box.

Note: The owner of these stamp gave me permission to enlage the stamp.
