Hi everyone, it's Kathi here to share my composition box & a video on how I altered it. It's hard to believe it's been 40 years since I graduated from High School in 1974. I thought it would be fun to create a memory box representing Lewiston Senior High, Lewiston Idaho, home of The Bengals. I decorated the box with my school colors.

Hi everyone! Melissa here with a 12 x 12 layout for Gina's Designs Lasercut Chipboard.
This is a photo of a beach in Greenport, on the north shore of Long Island, New York. It was taken in September, almost October, so I put a little Halloween in here too, just for fun.
All of the chipboard was first prepped with some gesso, followed by some texture paste painted on with a brush. I only put a tiny bit on the sea horse. The chandelier got painted with blue metallic acrylic paint, then glossy accents, then a little gold ink. For the chains I applied gold ink over silver glitter. The flames have gold leaf on them. The crows were painted with black acrylic, then glossy accents, then gold mica powder and water. I went around the edges with a black sharpie to make the colors stand out more.
The blue mermaid was painted with watercolors. I drew fish scales over blue paint on the dress, then put a little green gel pen on. To make the hair look like strands, I scratched wet texture paste with a straight pin. I painted it with gold mica powder and water, and followed that with a little purplish- blue mica powder.
On the green mermaid I put scales on by using a piece of netting and texture paste. I painted it with blue watercolor, then watered down green acrylic silk. I rubbed in some gold mica powder.
The sand dollar I first painted with wet gold mica powder, then a little brown watercolor around the star part, to give a little definition. I rubbed in pewter mica.
The seahorse is brown watercolor. I added detail with a pencil, using a print of a seahorse as a guide.
Thanks for looking!
