How To Make a Mixed Media Assemblage Box

I love making this type of projects, was very fun to create something different. I was very inspired after I did the Mini Matchbox from Tim Holtz so I though making something a little bigger. This is what they call a Mixed Media Assemblage Box, I found a jewelry box size 3.75x3.75 in perfect for my project.

I've gathered metal and paper embellishments from different designers, I had a World Map on my paper stash and work with it to cover the box, then I've made some Tim Holtz Rosetes to make them like a support to the picture and that work beautifully. The last step was to create a collage with all my embellishments and make a cool Steampunk Mini Shadow box.

Compendium of Curiosities 2 - Pockect Watch

So for this technique chosen for this week’s CC2C Challenge on the Studio L3 blog is the Pocket Watch .  The instructions for the technique can be found on page 35 of Tim Holtz’s book Compendium of Curiosities Volume 2. Love the pocket watch is such an amazing thing to do and then yet I feel is like a little treasure that has disappear in time. Now I've always find pocket watches very sexy and attractive in a man, once in my life I met a man that would use a pocket watch and I was so fascinated with his style, this is such and old tradition but men around the World don't consider this an attractive watch to wear or carry. I have to thank Tim for bringing this tradition back in a Vintage way like everything Tim does an I can keep one forever. So for this spectacular piece I've used as the background for my Pocket Watch Tim Holtz Paper, some metal embellishments metal clock plate, spinner and small key, the stamped number 63 comes from a Tim Holtz Clear Rubber Stam
