Something Altered...

** Click HERE for my December Giveaway **

Every now and again I like to freshen up my scrapping mojo with a little altered goodness. It can be challenging to think up new and exciting ways to arrange your photos on a 12 x 12 piece of paper (LOL). Using my creative juices to alter another medium is something I welcome with open arms.

I stumbled upon this vintage birdcage (at Value Village) for next to nothing. It was originally a greenish/gold (ick) but easily transformed with my black Staz On ink.

As soon as I saw this item I KNEW I had to use the latest Crush Line from Bo Bunny! I mean, the entire line is FULL of little love birds and bird cages!! PERFECT!

I wanted to ensure that the entire birdcage wasn't covered with these beautiful papers so I did keep quite a bit of the metal 'bare'.


I finished with some beautiful blooms from Petaloo's Mulberry Street Collection and Bristol Box Collection.

I also found this wooden lightswitch from the dollar store which I'd purchased ages ago! I thought to alter it with Bo Bunny's Crazy Love line - full of beautiful browns and pinks - same colour scheme as my daughter's room.



Although I love how it turned out, I realized (after I had finished) that our light switches are not the 'outie' kind - Oh well!!

See you tomorrow with some AMAZING stuff from Petaloo & Pink Paislee!!! (Haven't you heard??? They're doing the 12 Days of Christmas BLOG HOP!!! LOTS of AMAZING prizes!!)
