Studio Light desk tidy project - Fathers Day

We sent a member of our sample making team the
 New Studio Light 'Industrial' Desk Tidy MDF kit.
The kit comes with easy to assemble MDF Desk Tidy, 4 double sided A4 patterned papers, a sheet of die cut découpage embellishments, a sheet of vintage elements and vintage photographs.
Here is what Kathryn created...

Hi Peeps
Here's my Project... Perfect for fathers day
 From the kit I managed to make the tidy and a fathers day card and I have plenty of bits left over for at least a couple of tags and card.

The box was very easy to assemble, there are instructions on the back of the packaging if you need help though.



I assembled the box and painted the edges with burnt umber acrylic paint
then I added paper to all the panels.






I then added some of the découpage and elements sanded a bit of the edges and added a little Inka Gold paint to the edges to distress further. Once dry I coated with Mod Podge to seal.


For the card I uses a piece of 6 x 6 Kraft card cut some left overs to size and distressed the edges and inked with Vintage Photo DI.


I used a bit of decoupage, one photo from the sheet and used the packaging to cut out the word dad.
I added the string layered up the elements and added a little Glossy accents to enhance the rivets and 'Dad'
