Quest #32 - "RAVING RAVENS".
 'Tis without saying that thy creations shalt containeth a beloved RAVEN amongst their midst.

For thine endeavours, herewith thy Prize.

Thou hast until
Midnight on Wednesday 28th MAY 2014
 for thy creation.
I made a card.... yep another card, its getting to be a bit of a habit these days....
i'm not one for kits and stuff but I saw some folks I follow in blogland using
''GOTHIC GRUNGE'' from LELLI-BOT CRAFTS.... so thought , for a change i'd
give it a go. So the image and backing paper.... which you can hardly see, are from the kit.
The flowers/leaves I also made from the same backing paper.
I do hope you'll join us this month....
also its the start of a new month at
ALTERED ECLECTICS,
as always its an ALTER ANYTHING, ANYTHING GOES challenge...
so i started with this...

....and ended up with this...
I just embossed black cardstock with a folder... i think its actually a crow...
but it looks quite like a RAVEN..... adhered it to the wooden money box,
then rubbed it over with a bronze metallic wax, followed by a silver wax...
I wanted it to look like a siver-plated box that had had years of polishing so that the plate
has been worn away.
You have until the end of the month to enter the challenge at ALTERED ECLECTICS.
Thanks for stopping by BDx

  6. Honestly, BD, I can't understand why you don't make more cards. this is beyond gorgeous and I totally think that's a raven on the box. I bought that folder specifically because of it. Love how you've used it. xxD
