Finnabair July Art Recipe

Hello Everyone,

I just  wanted to stop in and share my take on Finnabair's July Art Recipe. The recipe is bright and beautiful as you can see:

If you don't know the rules are really simple each challenge consists of a color palette and a mix of products. You must stick to the color comb and use at least two pf the products listed in the recipe. July's Recipe is:

Color: Pink, Mint, Yellow & Green

Products: Art Alchemy Sparks & Metallique Paints, Glass Beads and 3D Gel.

For my project I decided to create an altered paint brush. I really do like the way this came out I hope you will too....

Pretty little Button Keeper

Hello everyone,

Today I'm stopping by and sharing how I altered this old cookie jar lid. As you may know I've been trying to get back into my artsy groove, so for me that usually starts with cleaning and organizing my craft room. While rearranging my room my collection of buttons became homeless. So I headed to the thrift store to find a cute and inexpensive jar, unfortunately I didn't have much luck. I found a cute bird house but not a cute jar, only this old cookie jar.

Well I gave up and figured what the heck I'll take it and I'll just paint the lid, it will be fine for now. But later I started thinking why not make it pretty, why not alter it. So with some heavy inspiration from Tiffany Solorio I went to work and I must say I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out! Thanks Tiffany you are the Best!
