Saturday Savers - At the seaside with Sylvie

Hello, 
If you enjoy our Saturday Savers post every week, today is another one you will love I'm sure. Sylvie created this gorgeous display with a Tando Creative frame and.... a butter box. And she was right, isn't it the perfect shape for a boat? 
Can't wait to read your comments on this one. And if you make something similar, please share with us






Use any left over butter/spread box and cover it with gesso first, and then paint it with Fresco Finish acrylic paint (Irish Cream)
Add the Grunge Paste using the Wood Grain mask and a palette knife
Add another coat of  Fresco Finish Nougat
Add some Distress ink (Victorian Velvet) on the texture
Cover the top of the box with Crafty Individuals paper 
Pierce a hole in the lid and add a fragrance stick
Use the Crafty Individuals paper to make a sail which you will ink up sing Distress ink Salty Ocean

For the frame

Cover the whole frame with Crafty Individuals papers
Distress the edges with Distress ink Salty Ocean
Stamp your Crafty Individuals images on white card using black Versafine and emboss them (black powder)
