I have been working on this altered item for ages.
I used different sized tins and one plastic cup and the lid off a Quality Street tin.
If you remember on one of the Sunday Mojos when John gave me a book see it here, I used some of the pages from the book to cover the tins. Here is how it started out.
I lined the insides with various shades of card.
Then I painted with Acrylic paints and I put a pretty pink paper around the plastic one.
And this is how it ended up. I decorated with flowers and gems and ribbon and buttons and butterflies, now isn't that a surprise?
