I often think this should be my personal mantra as I am more often than not rushing around chasing my tail and playing catch up. The downside of our busy modern lives is that we often forget to live in the moment. So this fortnight's Try It On Tuesday theme is one close to my heart and I wanted to try and make something a bit different for my DT project - and for once I made time to do just that!!! I am a sucker for buying the latest bits and bobs and never getting round to using them, so there are a fair few art parts languishing in my craft room.
This piece is a mixture of art parts, grungeboard die cuts, various cog die cuts (because I can't decide which one to buy I buy them in bundles ready cut from ebay. That way I get all the styles whereas I couldn't justify buying all the different dies .... could I?).I have then treated them to a bit of Distress EP, paint, ink and metallic rub ons. I had great fun putting all this together and even found a place for one of my mini bottles.

I think that is something we are all guilty of!! However, now that you've cracked them open, how fabulous is what you've made! I love the colours too, really makes you feel spring may be on the way (if only!)
It is amazing! I love all the bits and how you've created it all. Grand work! I, too have art parts cos they looked fab but haven't really made much with them! Take care Zo xx
Look at it this way, Cindy - if you hadn't amassed those bits and bobs over time you might not have had everything you needed for this fab piece.
LOVE it, Cindy!
Love your altered art piece, great use ofall those artistic bits and bobs! I have those bottles too, and need to figure out what to do with them! lol It's amazing what we buy and then hold onto! waving hi from the rainy hills of North Carolina ♥
