Showing some things I am been doing lately......I bought this picture at the thrift store for 1.00, I liked it but the picture looked too dark with the darkness of the frame, so I took it apart and sprayed the front of the frame white and then made a wash of black acrylic paint and water and brushed it on and wiped it back off leaving some into the crevices.....now I like it!

I did this altered altoid tin for a swap I am in on a yahoo art group...I hope my partner will like it.....I had fun altering it......

Artsy stuff

It's been a long time since I last blogged, I seem to spend most of my free time reading other blogs in my Google Reader and going to the yahoo groups I belong to....

This is an altered altoid tin, I made it for the Time challenge in the PID yahoo group....Dress on the front is from PID (paper imagery designs)and the inside images are from there also..you can find the website here:

Also on the PID yahoo group, we are doing an altered compact swap, I made 2 to swap......

This compact is an old one I have had a while and I enjoyed altering it the most,but I like how both turned out...

I did a couple of bamboo tile pendants, this one I swapped in the Altered stART yahoo group...I will post the one I received tomorrow, its a beauty!
