If you’ve arrived here from Julianne’s blog, you are in the right place!
Today I have an altered project to share with you – this started out as a corrugate box that originally held a new remote control for our TV!
I used a really fun mixed media technique and brand new Prima goodies as well as a stencil (on sale) that I had just picked up from my LSS, Scrapbook Island, to create this yummy box! I hope you’ll take a break from your day to check out the video tutorial. Adjust your settings in youtube if you’d like to watch it in HD!
I like the bottom almost as much as I like the top.
Can you guess what product I used with my stencil?
Love how easily it helped me integrate a variety of colors, blend them naturally with one another…
… And add a bit o’ grunge appeal to a rather vintage inspired project. I did some fun clustering, too – on this day I did not hoard! Got it and used it w00t w00t lol!
I thought it needed just a teensy weensy bit more softness, so I ribbonworked a few organza flowers – tutorial for these little pretties is linked in the description box under the video.
I hope you enjoyed my project and video! If you’re in need of some inspiration, I have a collection of tutorials on my TUTORIALS tab ready for your viewing pleasure, and many more to come. Hope you’ll subscribe here and/or on my youtube channel so that…

What a cool technique/video! Love how this turned out!
A beautiful project and great tutoriial. Great texture!
Hi Vivian,
I love this beautiful box and am fascinated with the shaving cream technique. I am definitetly going to give that one a try. I am curious, you mentioned that you saw that in a mixed media technique book. Would you mind sharing which book that was? There are so many books available but I like the idea of using unusual techniques.
Thank you for all of your great posts and tutorials!
