This weeks challenge over at
Saturdays Challenge is set by the
fandabbiedozzie Kimmy and it is to recycle something. I have recycled a little
chocolate box that I had in a hamper at
Christmas.
I'm not that happy with it to be honest covering it with the patterned paper was quite straight forward but then I used
Bazzill to make the bow and it was too thick really and was a real job to stick together and to
attach to the box. I just added a scalloped pink strip of Bazzill, then a green strip and finally some gems.
As I finished sticking the gems on the phone rung, I went to answer it and came back and have a
sneaky suspicion that Olive had her nose in my gems tray.....what do you recon?
Thankfully I had my camera by my side as I was about to take pics of the finished box......so it was a quick snap then catch her to knock it off. Thank goodness it
wasn't up her nose...imagine explaining that to the vet.....Olive the gem sniffer!
laugh ~had to show everyone here why i was laughing to myself ~olive the gem sniffer!
