Good morning crafters, its time for a new challenge and this time around our theme is 

Alter it

Now lets see what our DT girlies have been creating to inspire you

Yvonne - today I've altered a Dictionary page.  I stamped the butterfly and distressed the dictionary page behind the coloured butterfly.  The word Butterfly was highlighted in Hansa Yellow.

Terry, To alter something is not that difficult for me, lol I do it all the time when I see a cute box to alter. I altered this round box and worked with Gesso and Light Modelling Paste for the background. I used the Pearlescent Blue and mixed it with Iridescent Paste.and colored the box. On top I played with roses and colored them too with pearlescent pans and Iridescent Paste and to finish I placed lace all around the box and a few butterfly embellishments and a tiny heart.

Nestled inside is another 2 boxes that I will be sharing  next Sunday for my inspiration post, see you then. More pics on my blog here

Now on to the DT inspiration projects ...

Anjie - This was a plain MDF tag that I started off by mixing some pearlescent violet Pan Pastel with some Gesso and painting the background. I then place the Heart Of Flowers mask over it and stenciled through it with a black Pan Pastel. I then stamped out the butterfly, message and flowers from the Postcard Stamp Set in versamark ink and rubbed over then with the Pan Pastels and glued then to the tag. I finished it off with some black ribbon.
