I now have toy parts to add to my creations! :)

So, nephew #2 is pretty destructive and I now have toy parts to add to my creations! The wheels were taken off a broken tractor. The wheels were a tad too small for the Bows and Berries Halloween Ride digi so I did a little fussy-cutting. A little masking and inking with Tim Holtz masks and distress ink in black soot.

Go check out the new Bows and Berries challenge! :) Linking to Colours Dekor.

Supplies: Jenni Bowlin patterned paper, Bows and Berries digi, Tim Holtz masks, Ranger distress ink in black soot, SRM sticker, Copics, wheels from a broken toy.

An upcycled tin box.

Happy Monday! :) I upcycled this tin box for the latest challenge at the Bows and Berries blog (come play along) which is to use turqoise, bright pink, yellow, black and white. The digi was coloured with copics and I used the bits of crepe paper I had in my stash to "decorate" her outfit. All I did was apply some liquid glue and scrunched the crepe paper onto the area...a great way to add a bit of texture! :) 

Some ribbon and washi tape for the sides in matching colours.

Supplies: Patterned paper: Pink Paislee, Bows and Berries digi, Copics, crepe paper, ribbon, washi tape, SRM sticker and stickles.

Speaking of crepe paper, tomorrow's guest blogger will be sharing an awesome tutorial featuring the use of crepe paper! :)

Birdhouse love

Hello there! :) It was so fun to read the comments on yesterday's post - turns out that there are many paper hoarders! *LOL*

Challenge # 2 is up at Bows and Berries and it's Inspired by Nature. I used the cute birdhouse image (Psst....you get 25% off if you use this code at checkout :BB25) and Lily Bee papers.

I altered a tart mold. :) Pearls, tulle, trim, ribbon, doiley, punchinella and bling..

Did a little paper piecing and coloured the rest of the image with Copics. Added a little stickles for some sparkle! The metal clip lets you attach a photo or a love note. :)
