I tried using the Prima Marketing paper clay but it was so hard for this mould and came out in pieces.
Make sure to always coat your mould using baby powder or corn starch with a brush or sprinkle it on and tap away the excess before putting the clay into the mould for these detail moulds. Otherwise, the decor comes out in pieces. If it comes out in two pieces but still in great detail, I use
Beacon 3 in 1 Advance glue or a hot glue gun to stick the pieces together before gluing on the project.
I used a pink ink to color the rosette chiffon lace trim and use a hot glue gun to insert the 5mm flat back pearls and
10mm Wild Orchid pink roses in the center of each rose. I wet the rosette lace and then applied the pink ink. I used the embossing gun to dry before taping the lace with Scor Tape across the box. I used 1"
Scor Tape to across the box and then taped the gorgeous Venice white lace which is very similar to
Venice ivory lace in the store.
I used the photos of my granddaughter for the inside of the box with the Prima Marketing Havana paper, stickers and chipboard. Fun Fun Fun!
I made my shabby chic flower with the Prima Marketing Havana paper. I cut out two sizes of the flower petals. I used 1/2" x 1/2" double sided
Scor-Tape to the center of the flower and then stuck pink lace in the center and glue the other patterned paper flower for the next layer of the flower. Then I used a hot glue gun to adhere the 10mm pink Wild Orchid Craft flower in the center. The two other flowers on this box were made with foamiran and colored with
NUVO Mousse Aquamarine and
NUVO Mousse Peony Pink. I used my fingers to sponge the colors on the flowers for a very soft pastel. These two colors coordinate well with the paper.
Sample of shabby chic flowers made with the same patterned paper of Prima Marketing Havana. Some flowers have the rose in the center of the flower with lace and other ones have the stamen.
