Hi everyone! This is Martha Lucia
with my first project in Unique Laser Designs! I am very excited to share
this with you. My project is a "Desktop Display" that I altered with
a few things. Let me show you.
I start by selecting two products
from ULD Store, which was the most difficult part because I was shocked by all
these options. But I needed to start with something, I took the wheelbarrow and
the shaped circles in wood.
Then I used
different colors of Tim Holtz distress ink to color the circles and after they
dried, which only took a few seconds, I stamped them with Memento Tuxedo Black
with a text stamp.
For the
wheelbarrow I used a patina technique with VerDayProducts in Bronze Color.
I love this effect over the wheel and handles. The steps to get this
effect are too easy, I only needed to paint the wheelbarrow with bronze
paint and after it dried I sprayed it with VerDay Patina
Solution. Note the details:
The base of my desktop was natural wood, so I
painted it with a Red Wood Stain from Ikea. I let it dry and
then I cut a little small piece of designer paper for the stand.
To decorate the stand I cut some words in
card stock Rich Razzleberry using my die cutting machine
and framelits or cutting templates from Little Yellow
Bicycle.
As I was thinking of a display, I
decided to decorate some journal cards with gold glimmer paper , staples
and bakers twine, so I can interchange the board message every day.
To keep these cards in place I
created to decorate a paper clip with metal on topper, using a piece of
Polished Purple Metal Sheet from Add a Little Dazzle and the design of one
embossing folder. I pasted the piece of metal with Sticky strip to keep this in
place over the black part of my paper clip.
The last part of my project was
the assembly. And I decided to top the wheelbarrow with some little
paper flowers. I pasted the circles and the wheelbarrow
with dimensionals to give more dimension to the project.
Now I want to show you what the
original products I chose looked like and invite you to visit the ULD Store because
you will go crazy with all the special pieces that you can find to create and
embellish your projects.
