♥: Webster's All American and Vintage Vacation Swap

Webster's All American and Vintage Vacation Swap

Another Monday! A marvelous Monday I should add. It always is when DD is in the house and bouncing around. I am hoping the rain clouds hold off for a bit so we can head to the pool.
I made a card yesterday before picking daughter up. I pulled out some Webster's Pages for the red, white, and blue colors that CCCB's challenge asked for. I added lots of buttons which was Lucy's challenge.

Yet more Webster's Pages goodness with this trinket box I covered with the new Seaside Retreat line. I made this for my swapper partner, Jennifer in the Vintage Vacation Swap. It's painted, distressed, covered, and embellished. I think about covers everything. Oh and I did mist it with Maya Road ink. It was much darker than I anticipated but I liked the look because it reminds me of the ocean's blue waters.

There are lots of cool 3-D projects at Creatilicious challenge #12. My interpretation of 3-D is lots of texture with miscellaneous beads, shells, charms, and buttons to give depth. It's definitely bumpy. Be sure to visit and see all the creations made by some talented artists on the link above. I am heading back to leave some love. Thanks for stopping by!
