Good Morning Ladies,
The recycled box challenge over at Joan's has my mojo going. I have created another recycled box.
Joan's Challenge #9 recycled box sunflowers is my box. The requirements are...
Recycle a container (round)
Color theme your choice
Use lace
Use pearls and flowers

For my recycled box I used an empty prima flower tin. I have been hanging onto this for a long time. This is the top.
This is what the side of my container looked like before I started creating.
All the dies I used to create this tin came from Joan's. She has the best selection of dies in the country as far as I am concerned. If you need it she has it. I used tim holtz alcohol inks to change the color of my tin. The very bottom die that covers the clear window in the box is a Marriane die. The cardstock is double sided, so when you open the tin the side paper shows through the window. I should mention all the dsp came from a Graphics 45 12 x 12 pad. The pad is playtimes past. The sunflowers and olive leaves are cut from Cheery Lynn dies. The rolled flowers are cut from a memory box die. The single leaf is stamped and cut from a Heartfelt creations stamp set that you can also purchase at Joan's. The fence is cut from a Cheery Lynn die. My pearls are the centers of the rolled flowers. I cut the little girl from a tag from the same Graphic 45 tablet.
This is a side view of my box. It shows my lace that I added onto the lid. This box has a very different feel than my previous box.
A close up of the little girl just because I think she is so cute.
Too much fun Joan and Selma! Thanks again!
Happy Scraps,
Mrs. Swandog

Cute idea Lori. I love how you used the stripes on the outside of the can. The fence is a nice addition too.

How cute is this. I love how you used double sided design paper on the lid and those flowers are beautiful. Thanks again for joining us in our challenge at Joan's Gardens.
Very girly. My grandgirls would just love this. Thanks again for the inspiration!
