I have had a very productive day in the creative room...
it has been raining cats and dogs all day!
one is for the challenge at The Shabby Tea Room "Shabby Spring"
using the inspiration photo above, and the other is at
Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge Blog "anything goes"

I bought this balsa wood box at Michael's last year from the $1 bin...
but that pesky "other person" that lives in my house and puts things where I
can't find them, must of been at it again, as I could find neither...sigh...
I sanded it a bit, still thought it needed more,.
so I grabbed some white lightning and painted it on ....
but it didn't do what I wanted either, so I streaked on some watered down white paint...
now it's looking a bit more what I had in mind!
I adhered a Cheery Lynn Designs tiny Italian Flourish doily
other products used from Cheery Lynn Designs are:
Tiny things With Wings
Cutie Fringe 4 (for the lilacs and the fringe flower)
Flourish Leaf Strip
Build A Flower Embellishments #2
Build A Flower #2
I love how my little hummingbird "flutters" above the flowers!!
I used 2 different colors of Tattered Angels Sprays on the pink flower
that's it for today...hope you enjoyed it!
