Last weekend, I had an advanced Silhouette class. One of the tasks for the participants, was to create their own telephone box from a photo.
This photo box, is my own design. The photo box is made with Papers from Prima's Sun Kiss Collection - Sun Dried. I have mounted a small led light inside the photo box. The battery is hidden in the roof of the telephone box. I have used a 3V battery from an old computer. The switch for the led light is from an electrical tea light, that I dismantled.
I have created a vintage telephone inside the telephone box. I have also made small telephone books, which is hanging from the telephone table inside the box. The door to the telephone box is hinged, and locks with a magnet.
The flowers are mainly from Prima, but some of them are also from Wild Orchid craft. The base is done with papers from The Stationers desk. The base has also been covered with an overlay with words. The overlay was the base for a set of Prima flowers. I have always saved these overlays, to see if I could use them for something. I have also used Gesso, micro beads, stamps and different paints on the base, to create some effects.
The tap, is from a Prima set, designed by Ingvild Bolme. I have used Meta Mica to create effects on the tap. The water drops has been made by cutting half beads from round to drops.
The sign in from Prima, and has been mounted on a part from a vintage type writer.
The butterfly is a wood icon from Prima.

this is brilliant. When I saw the picture with your photo in it - I thought it was actually you sat at the side of the model you'd made - I thought it was a massive project... lol. I thought 'that would have taken a lot of papers to cover' - how silly of me. I love it - and all the little details too. x x x
SvarSlettWow - you did an amazing job creating this phone booth. The detail is awesome - including the light, the phone, the door - and a mini you sitting outside the phone booth. I love it - it's wonderful and gorgeous!
SvarSlettThis is just totally awesome!!!!
SvarSlettWow, wow, wow times three!!! This is phenomenal! I am so impressed at this piece of art and love how you used pastels for the color scheme, which was totally unexpected. I lived in London for over a year, so phone booths have a tender place in my heart and I adore this one. I just kept staring at the pictures! It has such incredible detail even down to the chain that holds the phone book. This is both elegant and whimsical and I thought it was so clever of you to put your own picture in this, too. Really stunning work and I'm so glad you shared it with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
