ALTER IT MONTHLY .... MUSIC

Music Is this months theme. So... Use music as a clear them in your altered item this month. Same rules as ever. This isn't a contest, its sharing ideas and trying new things, a little inspiration. Alter It Monthly have this month teamed up with The Altered Element who have kindly offered to support us and offer a prize of £20 in the form of an e-voucher to be spent in the Altered Element Store (the store reopens on the 9th of august). You have to be in it to win it as they say .... release the creativity within. Good Luck everyone:)



For my sample piece this month I have altered a Cigar Box which was given to me by a forum member for a forum swap, the theme is vintage, I have gone vintage & music so far .... as this piece is till a work in progress.

Hi Gillian,
Oh my gosh--I thought this was a canvas--I didn't realize it was a cigar box--wow--we think alike.
It is beautiful and I adore the flower and the precious image...I especially love the edges that are so aged...it's fabulous! And thank you for the wonderful challenge.
Thanks for coming to visit!
Hugs,
Cindy
