Hi All

Just thought I would show you my latest creation! I used a tester pot of cream to paint the beermat, then distressed it with inks, i then added an illustration from an Alice in wonderland book that I bought for 50p from a charity shop, I coloured the illustration with water colour pencils, added a tag, stamped alice then added more up-cycled broken jewerly as little charms. I am going to make one for each chapter ....when i get more time. I really enjoyed the research into this project as it needed a trip to the local pub......Hiccup! Lol, would love to here your comments

thanks kazx

just took a look at your blog, like the butterfly box too, you're v imaginative to do that with a cat food box ( bet you'll all be hopping over to look now!)
See you're a car boot junkie too,very jealous of your Rosanna teapot for a £1.
