Sewing Can (Altered Can II)

Hi there!

Although I'm supposed to be on Holiday, I'm going through a period of whimsical creative mood. I've got plenty of started cards, coloured images and not paper projects taking all the space of my desk. 

Last weekend I took home the altered can with sewing theme, that I showed you here, to decorate the lid, because I rushed it on to the challenge blog, without having had the time to do it. And this morning the inspiration came to me. 

Hope you like what I've done with it :)

In this work: Digital Stamp from The Paper Shelter (digitally pre-coloured image), die-cut shapes, liquid pearls, lace and ric-rac trims, crochet flowers, flat back pearls, plain buttons and fantasy buttons, fabric and paper flower.

Altered Can

Hi there!

It is time for another challenge at That Craft Place Challenge Blog. The challenge theme for this fortnight is Alter a Can. I have to say that I had never altered a can before and I really had lots of fun playing with this one. My can was quite big, 9" tall and 5" diameter. It used to be the can where I stored my ribbons but recently it became to small and I decided to store them somewhere else. I decided to make a can to store some sewing tools in the mill house and that gave me the chance to use some papers that I was saving for some special project.

Hope you like this :)

In this can:

- Patterned papers from MME

- Bronzee Tone Scisors Charm Pendant

- Buttons

- Fantasy Buttons Dress It Up - A Stitch in Time (sewing machine)

- Flat back pearls

- Lace 

- Ribbon

- Brown twine

- Distress Inks (Tattered Rose and Vintage Photo)

- Die cuts (Spellbinders and Die-namics)

- Paper roses

- Resin cabochon
