Re: Altered Tin challenge
I totally missed this thread somehow,
What a treasure you received Maritza,
very festive.
Ruth Ann asked that I post the one I sent her
in this thread also, It uses Time and Space
paper and stamps around the outer edge

Re: Altered Tin challenge
Wow oh wow oh wow--these are really something special aren't they? Each one is terrific! Yes we should do another one of these swaps after the holidays. We could start a small collection of these. I am sure I have space for a small shelf to dedicate to these.
Re: Altered Tin challenge
These are all fabulous, but I really love that watch, Elizabeth!

Re: Altered Tin challenge
I have Lanita's all packed and ready to go to the post office today, and I can't imagine that it will get to her! She is at an APO address, and when they x-ray this little box and they see a metal circular object, which has wires sticking in it, I just KNOW that they will rip it open and drop it in a vat of acid or something! Well, we'll give it a few weeks, and if it doesn't make it, I'll post a photo of it!
I wrote "Tin Can Shrine Swap" on the side, in case that makes them feel less worried about it.

Re: Altered Tin challenge
I took my suspicious package to the PO today, and feel better about it now. The guy had me fill out a customs form declaring what it contained (tuna can, floral wire, paper, foam), and I paid an extra 75 cents for delivery confirmation. So I should be able to track it all the way to Lanita's base. And if there is a big POOF as I'm tracking, and then Lanita starts noticing people following her around, we'll know they didn't read the customs label before blowing it up.

They are probably wondering why you are sending
your recycling to Europe.

LOL!! I'll keep an eye out for it Ink Pattie! I can't wait to see it!
Re: Altered Tin challenge
here's the one I made for Holly. As soon as I saw I would send to her I had moon images pop into my head. I wanted to make the stars hang inside the tin but thought they might get tangled in shipping. I couldnt find any adhesive to stick anything metal to the can for a base. I decided to use the front as a prop.
