Welcome to my crafting blog. After retirement, my husband and I moved to a beautiful location in the Okanagan area of British Columbia. I love all paper crafts including mixed media, journaling and cards. I also dabble in papermaking, photography, fibre art, and altered books. I am an active member of several card and mixed media groups and on the design team of several challenge blog. I love the world of blogging, it has opened many doors for me. My favourite quote is by Maya Angelou. “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” I hope you join me in my search for my creative side. Thanks for stopping by!

Queen for a Day

This week  at Recycle, Re-Purpose and Re-Invent it is a anything goes challenge.  I decided to make a shadow box out of a thrift store clock using images from CS Design's .

 This is my finished  project. 


This is what I started with, I am sorry it is in pieces I forgot to take a picture before I started to take it a part. 



I four images from CS Designs collection of fabulous digital stamps.  The Dancer Pirouette, Polka and Dot Mini Border images are from the Express Yourself series.  The crown on the dancer's head is part of Edwina's crown image and the sentiment is part of a Express Yourself Postage image.   

Here is a couple of other views of the shadow box. 



I used a piece of inked torn music paper on the outside of the clock, silver cord to trim the inside of the box and added a heart to complete my shadow box.

Hope you will join us this month at Recycle, Re-Purpose and Re-Invent.
