Hello Peeps.
I am doing really badly at blogging this year....
but it is just how it is, I guess.
I have three makes to show you,
but I have lots of photos of show you.
The first is an altered box that
became a keepsake box for a friend
to give to her new great niece.

The next is an altered book,
lots of playing around with this.
Embossing, inking, punching & water marking.
I don't have a binder so just alter notebooks
but always end up with the white bit
along the metal bindings.

Lastly, a good friend of mine is having
treatment for cancer.
We are all missing her at work,
so I took a travel tin sweetie that another
work mate took back for us
from a cruise she was on and altered it.
I filled the tin with tim holtz tickets,
sparkly things, butterflies and
asked everyone we work with
to write a happy thought
on a punched piece of paper.
No names from anyone,
just something to help
when you need a wee pick me up.

What fabulous makes!!! I just love the happy thoughts tin. x
Wow Tina these are all gorgeous. The keepsake box is a lovely idea for a little one. Your altered notebook is stunning. Seems ages since I did anything like that. Seem to have enough bother getting some Christmas and birthday cards made. I love the idea of the happy thoughts tin. Really nice for your friend to be able to dip into it when she feels down.
I always have a smile when I see your lovely girls. My boys are being cheeky just now. I'm sure they know it's Saturday and time for a big hide chew!!
