Lots of bad things associated with smoking, least of all the money he could save (and I could spend) if he stopped. On a positive note at least I get these great tins to alter.
Takes a lot of gesso to cover that warning but I managed it and this is what is on my workdesk this week looking a lot different now.
I used some great little tester pots of emulsion from Wilkinsons, chipboard shapes and some Crafty Individuals stamps for the border.
I am still working on the inside - concertina book thingy - and have to finish it this week as it's for my niece's birthday soon. Still playing about with the book pages as you can see from my desk.
You can see inside the lid on the rhs and lots of Crafty Individuals images, bits of ephemera, pearls, twine, postage stamps and a lovely coppery coloured strip of german scrap. I have to play a bit more with the pictures to make sure I don't end up with all of the ladies staring at the back of each other's heads, or facing away as though they have had a big row.
We are off to North Wales for a week on Saturday so not much on my desk next Wednesday, apart from all the jumpers I leave there when the weathermen predict a heatwave and I have to repack my case on Friday evening (I live in hope).
Well I'm off to have a good nose round the lovely Julia's blog at the other WOYWW and share this week's crafting vibe - how 70's is that?
