Vintage Christmas Collection…
Here I’ve altered a simple store bought tote/case to create a lovely custom Christmas gift. I have lots of Christmas ideas on my website to share how you can fill this. Create a Handmade Christmas for special memories.
Hello Lovely Ladies! Happy Saturday to each of you! :o) I only have a quick minute to post because we are about to start my sweet hubby’s 40th birthday party, but I wanted to share some projects that I’ve been working on for entries into the WMS Tag, You’re It challenge. I wanted them each to have a vintage Christmas feel to them.
The first project is an altered box that I created. This is the before picture of the box:
This is what I created: I added lots of acrylic paint, crackle medium, and vintage Christmas papers inside and out.

Hi Robyn,
It’s a wonderful creation
I love it !!
Where did you buy the suitcase?
For I see on the label, the price is in euro …
Could you provide me the address, please?
Also, I love your creations and your videos.
and thank you for showing us this, and share,
because it’s very nice to see such pretty achievements.
I never tire of coming to your blog.
It’s always a great pleasure.
And cards from the Christmas season,
are particularly sublime.
Greetings from France,
