Make a wish...a little upcycled project


Make a wish

If I could make a wish, it would be for better weather...it's been so gloomy and wet....
Just sharing a really sweet and pink upcycled project. :) The round tin was upcycled from American Crafts packaging! :) A little misting on the background and doiley and wrinkle ribbon...

Make a wish closeup

Mostly American Crafts scraps...some Gauche Alchemy punchinella....stickers...Fancy Pants felt (heart), SRM sticker sentiment, distress stickles in rock candy, stickles in cotton candy, buttons, Heidi Grace pin, American Crafts floral badge and ribbon.

I was inspired by Card Patterns  [even though I simplified it a wee bit] and the Tuesday Trigger: Sweets for the sweet over at Moxie Fab World. Love that the stickles in rock candy looks like icing sugar...yummy! :)

Creamy fudge hearts from Martha Stewart Living via Moxie Fab World.

P/s: I really hope you come play along with my guest Mandy's Extending the Background challenge...pretty please?

    Sorry I did not play along with the background challenge - I was intimidated! I should not have let that get in my way though. I think I am intimidated by scrap booking in general lately - ughhhh. I am off to print out a few pics and give it a go, even if I am late!!!!
