Saturday greetings to you! I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I've got a ScrapBerry's project to share featuring a bit of recycling from a found object.
I've used the beautiful Birds of Paradise collection along with a piece of packaging material as my foundation to create an up-cycled home decor plaque.
As you can see, I have die cut several items to layer, but the sentiment and bird with the florals were my inspiration. I've hand cut the florals and some of the leaves as they are so pretty!
I hope I've inspired you to look at some of your everyday items creatively today.

I've used the beautiful Birds of Paradise collection along with a piece of packaging material as my foundation to create an up-cycled home decor plaque.
How did this project begin? I received a box containing a new larger item and inside were several pieces of this oversized partition cardboard but with texture. I loved how durable and strong it was and thought, this could really work nicely for a wall decor item.
To begin, I used a coating of plain white gesso. After the first coat I applied a bit of ScrapBerry's Stains Ink in Pink to the raised areas, then muted it down with a 2nd coat of white gesso. A bit of silver embossing powder was used on top of the wet medium, then heat set with a heating tool. The final touch was an application overall of iridescent medium.
The technique accents the gray tones and softens the Pink ScrapBerry's Stains Ink to perfectly coordinate.
I hope I've inspired you to look at some of your everyday items creatively today.
