Decopatch Transformation!

So here's the before pic... a rather 'functional' looking set of storage drawers.


and here's what I did with them!

I was commissioned to 'pretty them up' for a very special customer who redecorated their bedroom and wanted some jewellery/makeup storage to compliment their newly transformed space.
I used decopatch papers, roses and leaves and leftover paint that was used on the bedroom wall!
The quotes were a special request.
I really enjoyed doing this, was nice for a change to do something a bit different!!

Saturated Canary Roses are Red

This has to be one of my all time favourite Saturated Canary images!
I've really been trying to improve my promarker colouring recently, I was hardly using them and I felt bad having such a lot of expensive pens just sitting there being neglected! So I've been practising lots, trying to improve my shading and skin/hair colouring as this is something I find difficult with them.

I also invested in a few flexmarkers and I'm hooked!! Something else to make a dent in my bank account ;)

I've made an easel card for a change as part of this weeks challenge at Charisma Challenges - More than 1 fold - sponsored by Saturated Canary!

Papers are by First Edition from the Spring pad and the Up up and away pad.
Dies - Spellbinders, Whimsy
Sentiment - Craftwork cards
Leaves made with MS punch
Gems, flowers and ribbon from stash.
Edging stitch is a stamp.
