im entering this over at dl.art where diane is having a fun anything goes linky party this month be sure to stop by her blog  i know shed love it if you did :)
for this challenge i altered a tin can


i sprayed the can with some sealer, then painted with acrylic paint (white and sand and gold) added some burlap ribbon and tweed ribbon. then i hot glued this on a coaster that i inked then added moss and flowers

 i glued two mini claypots added some moss inside forming a little nest with it , and teensy bird eggs
 then glued a birdie on the pot.
i added this gazing ball i made  by gluing together some wood spindles  and dowel caps (hobby lobby) i also painted them roughly. the ball is a clear marble i colored with alcohol ink, glued it atop. super easy but hella cute eh:) 
i took a mini envie and added a tea bag. i adore these cutsie envies the tea bag fits perfectly inside. i just closed it with a glue dot.stamped it with random bird stamp and added the tag using one of the stamps from the everyday sentiments set.
hope ive inspired ya some :) thanks so much for the visit your sweet comments always make mem smile, thank you for that! happy craftin! cant wait to see your project!xxxshelly
