Tando Creative Meets French Country

Good Afternoon everyone Hope your having a lovely weekend

I have been Busy Altering This Large Carriage Clock from 

Tando Creative which I picked up from my local craft Shop

I wanted to make it more 3d Because its Comes as a Flat Clock 

so I have made a small Tutorial to go with it 

  I Started by making a Hole in the Back Panel big enough to fit the Clock housing Inside Then with the Card that came in the pack I cut it into 3 inch Strips  then marked and scored 1/2 inch in from each side and cut Triangles into the score line so I could attach to the clock You need to use strong Tacky glue for this
 Once it was stuck I painted it Inside with some
 Black Paint because you will be able to see inside 

Then I added the Papers to the inside of the front panel before attaching the front off the clock Then Just Decorated With my G45  French Country Papers with a bit  of Black soot around the edges And Last added the clock Fixtures  

Thanks for Calling by and I hope this Tutorial will come in Handy at some point to you 

Hugs 

Sandra

Good Morning all Hope you're all well. My Boy's are home 
this week so I'm going to spend some quality time with them But Just popped in to show you this Altered

Jewellery Box with Graphic 45 papers 

A Ladies Diary 

I found this Jewellery Box in a charity shop and just new it had to come home with me 

So I striped it down Glass out and Knobs off Gave a Light sanding to remove the old varnish off it then washed it off and waited for it to dry completely before Giving it a coat of White
Gesso Then speeding the 
     drying process up with my heat gun Then a coat of 
    Antique White Pebeo paint Which is used  for wood, Metal 

              Whilst the Paint is drying  I Found  the Papers
I wanted to use I thought The Graphic 45

      A Ladies Diary was  perfect  for this Project

           I cut out all the Pieces That I needed ready Then cover

       them and the box in Mod-podge and stuck in  Place on the

 Jewellery Box added some pretty Lace and one 

of the Beautiful Ladies on to the Glass
