Altered Cereal Box and Can

I love altered projects - and this project - a great way to create something useful - out of something you would normally throw away!  With this project - it is a cereal box, cut in half to create an awesome organizer!!!   I needed something to hold all of my bigger stuff, like my rulers, paper trimmers - and then smaller sections in front to hold smaller stuff like my scissors, hand held hole punches, and basic tools!   So, lets get started!   Supplies needed for this project: Cereal box with top not torn Tape Adhesive Xacto knife Ruler Paper of your choice Embellishments of your choice Supplies I used:   KI Bakery Twine - bought at Walmart Ribbon from my stash Sizzix flower die cut, various die's Flower paper punch, various punch's Buttons from my stash Colorbok Snow White paper - bought at Walmart Colorbok Watercolor paper - bought at Walmart   Directions: Step one:  Cut the cereal box in half.  Take the top...

Robins Nest

Today's post is just a bit different - I am trying out for the Robins Nest design team - so the projects you will see today is for them!  Now, since I couldn't decide which team I wanted to try for - I decided to actually do 3 different projects - a scrapbook layout, a set of cards, and an altered project and then let them decide which one - if any - they wanted me to be a part of!  Funny thing is, I also won a recent blog hop gift which was fun stuff to play with from them, so my entry today also has their remarkable papers from them!  I hope you enjoy my projects!     My first project I am going to show you today started with this Pinterest pin!   I don't like copying exactly to the sketch, but this one ended up being a lot like the original one yet with my own Lynda's twist!  This is the first time I have been able to work with the Robins Nest papers - and will not be the last for sure!!!  I am in love with the two sided paper for sure!!! ...
