Good Morning Everyone
Its a lovely sunny, blue sky this morning as I sit and look out my window. Always makes you feel better! Well after a very stressful week we finally exchanged contracts on the house last night. I can now start to get excited about the new house!
I wanted to share a project I made for the Hobby House show on Create and Craft a couple of weeks ago. (It was actually featured on the show!!) My other half was given a tin of handmade cookies for his birthday and I saved the tin they came in and altered it into a Christmas tin for chocolates or gifts.
It was very tricky to photograph but you get the idea! The chocolates went in afterwards!
The papers are Echo Park - Merry Christmas collection. The dies are Doo Hickey's Leaf and Swirl and my Grand Nesties Scalloped Circles. The rest of the products used are from the Hobby House and are listed below:
Mo Manning Christmas Fairies - Pre-coloured Topper;
Remember the Christmas challenge on the Hobby House challenge blog if you want to join in!
I would like to enter this into the Red & Green Challenge at Winter Wonderland.

A beautifully altered/decorated tin Pami, but I'm a bit concerned about the chocolates - going in after - after you've eaten them perhaps!!! Only joking my dear, I also wanted to say a huge thank you for my candy - it arrived at the beginning of the week & I can clearly see you are trying to develop my decorating skills with all those lovely buttons, beads & trims. Very much appreciated & I'll post a thank you on my blog too, but for now... back to hedge trimming! Jx
