I have already told you the story about my grandma. Last Saturday we celebrated her and my Grandpa's birthday. It was a great party, special and emotional, a birthday that requires an equally special gift. Here is the gift I made for them: a printer's tray telling the story of their lives and family.
Four of the twelve boxes have photos of our family and the rest of the boxes each tell a little story about a piece of their shared history.
I used different techniques and materials in my creation and a lot of 3D elements. The most visible are the flowers, which some of them were misted and painted. I also included papers, buttons, stickers, stamps, ribbons, lace, embellishments and some less traditional materials like fabric, pearl necklace and a small crochet I did myself.
They were really happy and excited to get this present and it's now hanging on their wall. I'm so happy!
Have fun creating!
