Mixed Media with Shari Carroll: Love Candies
Welcome, everyone, and Happy Friday! It’s Shari here with a “sweet” little vignette box project featuring the Tim Holtz Sizzix True Love Colorize die set. I mixed the candies with some pink flowers created from the Tim Holltz Brushstroke Flower dies.
To start off, I whitewashed the box with white gesso and ink blended all the candies and flowers with Simon Says Stamp Pawsetively Saturated inks. I had a happy surprise to find out that the Heart Chain die-cut fit perfectly around the outside of the box, and I was able to use the center hearts for the inside.
To see how this all came together, check out my video below. Enjoy!!
