Altered Heart Tin


Time for another great mixed media/altered art challenge at Creative Artiste  this month.

I  decided to alter this tin heart shape box to create packaging for a Christmas gift.

 This is what I started with.


This is my finished project.


The product I used on my altered tin are:

Gesso
Stamperia thin butterfly mold
Dollar store gems
An assortment of Distressed Strays
Pentart Gold Metallic Wax Paste

Here is a couple of other views of my project.




Thank you for stopping by and have a creative week.  Remember to pop over to our challenge board to be inspired by the projects of our talented design team.
