what to do with a bean tin?

What to do with a tin bean can? Well the challenge over at The Try it on Tuesday blog is to alter a Tin. At first the challenge was to alter a Bean tin but then it was decided to alter any kind of tin. Of course I had already started my Bean tin so here it is...

I had a few different ideas but after the dog broke my nose Monday morning when i picked her up from the kennel after returning from Holiday(No it was not really her fault, she jumped as I leaned over to check on her), I decided to keep it simple. Thankfully my nose is not too bad although sneezing is out of the question. Anyway, for my tin I decided to use my Hero Arts tree stamp I just received from The Stamp Man along with the fairy stamp which is also from The Stamp Man last summer. The leaves are from a Tim Holtz stamp set. I lined the top of the tin with a fuzzy fiber.

Now this week we are generously being sponsored by The Craft Barn once again Who have a £15 voucher for one lucky entry. All you have to do is to have a go at altering a tin then link it up on the Try it on Tuesday blog. There is lots of fab inspiration from the rest of the team just waiting to be checked out so do go have a visit.

Now I am off to rest my aching head. Thanks for stopping in and have a lovely day. Angela

Poor you Angela, your dog must have been really pleased to see you to come at you with such force. Hope you get better soon and don't get the lurgi, I would imagine sneezing and a runny nose would be really bad at the moment. :-) xx

the background must be of some dark color, or the leaves and the girl. so that it would be more attractive.
