Recycle

For this weeks DT inspiration at DIGI CHOOSDAY, we were asked to recycle something.

So I grabbed an empty Twiglets canister from the recycling bin and transformed it into a handy holder for my scissors, paint brushes and rulers.

I started by covering the tub in tissues paper and a couple of layers of Gesso and white paint.

Once it was all dry, I used my distress oxides in blue, pink and purple and dabbed all over until I had a good coverage, then also added a little gold gilding wax over the creases the tissue paper had made.

I coloured up the beautiful Darling Buds Bluebell with my Copics and then glued to the tub, with some little flowers from my stash and some pearl edging around the top.

Finally I tried a bit of hot foiling using my laminator to add my name to the side.

Happy new year everyone, hope you had a great time over the festive season.

I am beginning the year with a card for my nephew and my latest DT inspiration for DIGI CHOOSDAY.

I have used papers and the 'basketball' digi image from the Little Dudes Collection. 

I have coloured my image with Copics, I was trying to go for a darker skin tone, but it looks a bit orangey, think I need to find a different combo for that!

I created the wording using a new crafty gadget I got for Christmas - we r memory keepers letter punch board.

I do hope you join us over at the Challenge Blog and look forward to seeing all your lovely creations.
