בכל חודש, כשמתפרסם האתגר החודשי של מיקסים, אני מבטיחה לעצמי שהפעם אשתתף אבל בכל פעם ליקום/לעבודה/ ולחיים יש תכנון אחר - אז בכל פעם זה נשאר בגדר שאיפה

to qualify for the challenge, i took an old bag of prima flowers which waited to be altered i guess and painted it with acrylic paint and tried out my new distress inks for the first time (love them!!!) and covered the inside.
then i used the same paper and stamped it with a thank you stamp and VOILA - re purposed!
loved every minute.
when i was done i remebered i had an old project which fitted this challenge too - my grandfather's old shoe which i painted a rose and butterfly and made a hanger of...
