Then I made teenie baby tags to put on the inside. It was very easy since this set has one sheet of these cute baby animal images. I just cut them out, layered them to cardstock and tied rick-rak to them. That's it! I think I was able to get 8 tiny tags in the tin: I then altered those tiny ribbon spools (that you can find at Michaels or Joanns) with the paper and made these adorable gift tags: You have til July 31st so go register now!

Altering with "Bella Flor"

BEFORE PICTURES:




AFTER PICTURES:






Using our Bella Flor paper collection, I altered a few things with it because it's the perfect weight for these kinds of altering. Please check this beautiful paper as it is specially priced at only $10 (retails $19.95) until supply lasts. (You can see my post on this further down the page & order at my TAC online store.

Anyhow, I altered a Lipton tea box and made a recipe box. I just realized I forgot to take a picture of the files on the inside...darn! Maybe this week I can post it for you. I took the Crystal Light container and made a cute girlie tote with clear tubing handle. With the Crystal Light cover (orange colored) I made a photo frame. I also included an aluminum paint pail and a vitamin bottle (it's the one with the purse tag hanging on it) that I covered with Bella Flor paper as well! So you see you can make your own "one of a kind" gems with recycled items. Hope you enjoyed these. Any questions, leave a comment and I'll get back to you soon as I can.
Bless ya!
