A little  re-cycling and even up-cycling inspiration.......

A Cup Cake Tissue Box

This is to be a present for my mother in law and is perfect as she has a cup cake decorated kitchen.  The box was from my local Trago Mills (about £3) and the stamps and papers are from Molly Blooms Birthday Parade Magazine.  It was very inexpensive very easy and such fun to make.

I couldn't resist cutting out the heart stamp and attaching it to the bow at the side of the box

I continued the cup cake theme on the back and put the little girl image in a scalloped circle

 The tea cup and tea pot were from Hobbycraft, I just added a little paper.

The final side just needed a couple of spoons and another image and the box was compleate.

Set of Drawers

I found this storage box at a car boot sale for £1 and thought it would be perfect for storing my Molly blooms stamps. So I set to work with some papers and glue to give it a facelif

The side I decorated with the Molly with Holly stamp but changed the colours to blue and Chocolate.

On the top I die cut a set of hearts and put them in an embossing folder then distress inked them.

I finished the right hand side with George  and it was ready to store my stamps. I just love it and it gives me pleasure to know that I have given it a new lease of life.
