I started cleaning off my work space and came across a Laughing Cow Cheese box that my friend Connie challenged me to alter. I just happened to get some new toys to work with too! The Circle Scissor Plus is awesome, and you have got to try out the Craft and Paper scissors from Stampin' Up. They are top notch!
Here is my altered Laughing Cow Cheese box. I painted the edges of the circles with Tim Holtz Crackle paint. After it dried I sponged alcohol ink over the crackled surface. I could buy the crackle paint in various colors, but I chose "picket fence". I now can change it to any color I need.
I glittered it up with stickles, Intentionally leaving the bottom of the box with an unfinished look.
As I was watering the flowers in the front yard after dinner, I came across this. lol I guess this little guy lives in one of the bird houses that I have in my flower beds. He was in it the day Catherine and I opened the backs of all of them to clean them out. I guess he lives there! What shall I name my new pet?
