My version...on a trinket box....woohoo...

Hello...Ladies.... September is really a bad time for me...Am a bad blogger eh...I had too many social activities this September...neglected my crafty stuffy... But this morning... I decided enough is enough...[[LOL]] ...I so miss my corner....

I'm so intrigued... and I wouldn't want to miss the challenge from LESSOLOGY...
The Trinket Box Challenge....initially I wanted to recycle/upcycle my tiffany box...but I thought ...hang on a tick... I can make this from scratch using covers from "no-more-use booklet"...AND I DID it..YAY and pat on my back!!!...To play along...and see more details of this challenge...please scoot over to LESSOLOGY!!Trust me... FUN is all you get!!!

These are the steps.... used the covers on a booklet.... cut them up and converted into a tricket box...After I did all the dimensions right.... I painted all over using the closest colors for my PP that I have chosen....

After I dolled this up...




Supplies used... Crate PP... Prima Flowers... buttons... Jenni Bowlin rub-on[alpha]..lawn fawn stamps...LYB pins...kaisercraft pearls...making memories butterfly...jillibean journal tag..making memories scrapbook paints...TH distressed ink...


Seriously... I like it so much... that I made not one but 2... come again tomorrow to see my 2nd box ..eh....[wink]



Don't forget to join me over at ARTastic September challenge.... and if it's your 1st time... please do mention ME... [I'll get some bonus points!]..hugss!!
