This month at ATP the monthly challenge is all about letters.Below is a pictorial guide to my entry.Alphabet Soup!
The finished result above was made using the step below. Four Naked lettersI took a used box that my phone charger lead came in. I used the Mermaid and Haystack Fresco paint (the Guacamole photo bombed)I covered the box with Tissue Wrap using Studio Matt Medium as an adhesive.I painted the letters with Mermaid Fresco and then stamped the music script (below) on the top surface. I used a black Adirondack ink pad to stamp the script and used Black Soot Distress Ink (DI) pad to edge the letters. After covering the box with tissue wrap I diluted some of the Haystack Fresco and gave a light covering across the whole box. I then used Vintage Photo DI through a stencil by Lin Brown.On some card I stamped a keyboard and added other details. I used a Kaiser Craft record image, some rub ons by Tim Holtz and added a title.I finished off the outside of the box using Vintage Photo DI pad. For the inside of the box I painted the it using Haystack Fresco. I then stamped onto some card the 'Dictionary of Musical Terms' stamp and edged the card in Vintage Photo. I took a piece of wood effect card and stamped the musical score randomly across it before gluing it into place on the base of the box.The 4 letters fit perfectly.I hope you like this simple way of covering a very boring box and making it useful again.
