Stamperia Fun with Rice Paper and Mica Powders

Hello everyone.  It is Olivia here and today I am bring you a quick tutorial on how to create some items with Rice Paper. Fotobella offers some gorgeous selections from Stamperia and I am featuring three different projects that contain Rice Paper.  The first is a decorated box, then a tag and finally a card.

I bought a box from the craft store and but a layer of gesso on the top. Then I used Prima Mica Powders , Green, Sunny Yellow and Summer Sky.  I then spritzed it with water and let it dry.

I then added a thin layer of modpodge and added the Rice Paper, called Wonderland Fantasy Decoration.  One of the many thing I loved about this sheet was that it had multiple images on the rice paper.  I used the stencil with some Bo Bunny Glitter Paste to add some texture.  The final touch was the metal butterfly and dragonfly that I used purple wax on it to change the color. 

For the next project, I used a die and cut out a tag. Then it was sponged with Distress Inks to created the background.  I cut out the fairy and one of the butterflies from the Wonderland Fantasy Decoration sheet and glued it onto the tag. 

For the card, I used the Rice Paper, Hortensia and Dragonfly. I trimmed the paper down to 4 x 5/14 and glued it via ModPodge onto a cardbase. I also cut out the dragonfly and added it onto the flowered image.
