One Stop Crafts Challenge #101

I am hoping that blogger has worked a little magic and posted this on time, I am scheduling my posts at the moment.
Hi all today we have a new challenge for you at One Stop Crafts and this week we would like to see you
ALTER IT
Our sponsor this week is Craft Brulee
This is a new store offering £10 to the winner to spend on some goodies from their site.

I decided to alter an old CD, which I have loads of, and made a wall hanger, shown below.

I used one of my favourite Penny Black stamps, inked with Momento Black Tuxedo and coloured with Copics, I did two images and then cut them out, ready to mount.
I used my circle cutter to cut out the circles the same size as the CD, the papers I have used are Basic Grey.

I then proceeded to create a couple of flower displays I added Diamond stickles around the petals. I then added some flower gems and white pearls then mounted the images with silicone for a 3d effect. I punched the hole with my Crop a Dile and threaded some pink ribbon through.

This is a side view which hopefully shows the 3d effect better. This little beauty is now proudly hung on my wall in the living room so I can see it every day.

I hope this may have given you an idea as to something to alter, but it can be anything, a box, a picture frame but for even more ideas please see the other DTM projects they are top notch.

I hope we see you at OSCC this week with your wonderful projects.
Hugs to all see you later.

An adorbale piece of work Lorraine.

And the new blog layout look great, me thinks you are a very clever girl making it look this good. It scares me no end every time I am forced into changes on mine.

I did read your post yedyersay, but mr Blogger had other ideas when I tried to comment. I am always here for a chat whenever you feel the need.

Sending you love and hugs.

Oh my gooooooooooodness, I LOVE THIS!!! I adore PB, especially the earlier critter creations, and you have coloured her so well!! The embellies are fabulous and I love those colours together!! I read the posting below this and I hope you are feeling better soon hun. You are in my thoughts, I know "that feeling" isn't something you can just shake off, but I hope that it passes quickly. As for the blogging, well, it should be fun, once it is more of a chore than a fun escape from reality, then something went wrong!! Sending cyber hugs!!
