Finished Altered Sardine Tins - for Christmas

The three way round robin swap I blogged about here

has been completed and I'll show here the finished

altered sardine tins with a Christmas theme.

My own tin, once I did my bit started off looking like this

 

Lou then added her bit and it looked like this



 The tin arrived back today from Sonja who
finished the tin off and it now looks like this -
I love it!





















I hope Lou and Sonja won't mind me posting these pictures
of their tins too - before and after.

This is how Lou's tin started off

Then onto Sonja

 and finally me

Sonja's tin started off looking like this

  Onto me next and I blogged about what I did here. 

.. and finally finished off by Lou

What a lovely project to work on this was
and I think all three tins look lovely.

Thank you again to Lou and Sonja.

Altered Sardine Tins .... for Christmas!

  

I'm doing a three way altered sardine tin swap

with Christmas as the theme.

 

Each of us supplies our own tin, decorate it a bit,

pass it on to the second person who adds their

own festive layers and they then pass it on to 

the third person who finishes it off and returns

it to the first person - so we each get our own tin back.

 

The tin I supplied is as above.

All I did as a start was to completely cover it

with christmas sheet music and cut out from the

tin lid one set of angel wings with the Bigz die shown.

I embossed the wings too with an embossing folder.

 

 

This is how it left and it's now with the second

person - wonder what they'll do next!

 

 

In the meantime I've received a tin like this

 

 

For my contribution I added a Christmas Angel

to the inside.

 

 

The head is moulded from air dry clay.

The gown is fusible fibres and real 'Angel Hair' - what else!

She has a beaded halo and some jingly Christmas bells around her.

 

 

Finally, I added a glass nugget to the bottom,

the scrap of sheet music was attached with Glossy Accents.

 

 

 The tin will tomorrow be on it's way to the next person

for the final layers - wonder what they'll do 

with that funky frame.

 

 

This swap is being run from the 

Collabor-Art blog group.
