Hi Everyone!! So today I am sharing a small altered bucket that I have done. This was so quick and easy to make. It came out just the way I wanted it to as well!!! The paper I used came from Bo Bunny the Gabrielle line. I just love pink and brown together!! The layered some white lace, pink flat back pearls and a brown rosette trim with pearls in some of the rosettes. I then distressed them with gesso.
The paper I cut and distressed the edges with my Tim Holtz distressing tool and then also added gesso to the edges. On three sides of the bucket I did something new. I used a word stencil and some modeling paste, I think it came out awesome for my first time.
On two sides I did flower clusters, which are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I used the pink cottage roses, the 2 tone chocolate brown wild roses, white tea roses, and pink semi-open roses. The white daisy under the cottage rose came from a trim that I had in my stash that I cut apart. I also added green rose leaves under the clusters. I then softened everything up with gesso.
Thanks for stopping by and have a scrappy day!!
