Altered Tin for "SaWo" and "Objet D'art"


Here is a band-aid tin I've altered for the challenges on "Saturday's Workout" and "Objet D'art"
I sanded the tin and then painted it with 2 coats of gesso. When it was dry I put versamark ink on it and embossed it with an assortment of powders....then I added the embellishments.
I hope you like it !
(It is just right for holding ATC's !)
