Hardcore Hardware challeng

Happy Thursday blog world!
today there is a new challenge over at StampInsanity and it is called Hardecore Hardware and I made this last weekend and have been so excited to share it with the world

Its an altered Altoids tin....I painted it purple then splattered some white pearl on it, then I took my Nicholette image and colored her and cut her out then put some utee on it and heated it then stuck it in the freezer then took it out and bent it so it cracked, I then made 5 lil cards to go inside, they say "just a little note" I used allot of glimmer mist so the picture didn't turn out so well... the flowers were all punched out of book paper from Paper Maddness (link on sidebar) then I glimmer misted them too and added a lil jewel.....

thanks for stopping by and don't forget to check out the other fab lady's on the hop

12th day of Smeared Ink Christmas / angel tin

Welcome to the final day of the 12 days of Christmas!
I wanted to make something super cool but I had like zero time... so this will have to do

I altered an Altoids tin to hold a key chain I made for a Christmas present.


I used an angel from Smeared Ink's symbology of Angels set, I stamped him on some clear plastic and glued some material on the tin then attached it with glue and brads, and on the inside I stamped a senti right on the material. the domino was only stamped nothing to fancy I wanted to keep it masculine but still cool....
the senti and watch stamp came from CTMH

so wadda ya think not to shabby huh?

well I hope you had as much fun as I did on this hop...there are some very talented ladys here! if you have missed anything be sure to check past posts on everyone they are so great! I know I got allot of inspiration...
I entered this tin into the One Stitch at a time challenge blog - anything goes
I would have loved to enter it into more...but I was to late...its already midnight...oh well maybe next time...

have a very Merry Christmas!!!

altered altoids

I had to share this awesome project I just finished...I found 2 Altoids tins on the floor of my hubby's truck and decided to alter them... the first was an altoids smalls tin and I just wrapped it in some really cool paper I found! the second was the regular size and I first painted the lid black and then stamped my favorite crow stamp on some material in red paint and distressed the edges of the material added more red, roughed it up a bit and stuck it to the top of the tin....whadda ya think nifty huh? I may decorate the inside too...if I do I'll post some more pics
