Tuesday Taggers - Alter Something.

This week's Tuesday Taggers Challenge is right up my street, I love altering things, so I started with a tin:
I used stamps from Paperartsy and Crafty Individuals for the front of the tin, and gave it a metal roof painted with Lumiere paints and a chimney using a Tim Holtz label stamp:
For the inside I used Prima Flights of Fancy paper for the background and Martha Stewart butterfly punches.  I stamped flowers and foliage in the background using stamps from Clarity and Elusive Images, and did a bit of extra colour with Copic pens:
I did colour the outside and inside of the tin with alcohol inks aswell, but this doesn't show on the photos.
The tiny alphabet is by My Little Shoebox.

Anne - this is fabulous. Love how you have used the metal for the roof - clever! The idea of the "house" is superb and I just love the inside.
Great to see you at weekend - hope your goodies were well looked after (wink).
