Hello friends, Nancy here with a tutorial featuring some of the great new stencils from The Crafter’s Workshop.
I’ve had a supply of wooden photo cubes for some time and wasn’t quite sure how I wanted to decorate them; they were looking for the just the right embellishment. The new stencils fit the bill perfectly!
The Crafter’s Workshop provided me with some product to create this project. The opinions I share are solely my own.
Supplies Used:
unfinished wooden photo cubes
6″ x 6″ Mini La Sonadora TCW646s
6″ x 6″ Mini La Artista TCW645s
6″ x 6″ Mini Chica Florita TCW648s
6″ x 6″ and 12″ x 12″ Corazon TCW652s/652
6″ x 6″ Mini Regal Hearts TCW651s
paintbrush
acrylic paints: orange, mustard, magenta, lavender, citron, aqua, black
baby wipes
foam spouncer
black Staz-On ink pad
masking tape
gold spray mist
*************************************
Remove metal photo holders and paint cubes with white gesso.
Coat top and sides of cubes with a rainbow of colors, applying paint with finger. Blend colors with fingers and baby wipes.
Position stencils and use a foam spouncer to apply black acrylic paint. Mask off areas of stencils that you do not want on the cube.
Add a different stencil design to top and sides of each cube.
Ink all edges of cubes with black Staz-On ink.
Insert metal photo holders securely into each cube and cover loosely with masking tape. Take outside to spray all sides with gold mist.
Remove masking tape and add your favorite photos!
I hope you’ve enjoyed this tutorial and I’ll see you next time!
