It's my first week as a GD over at Cupcake Craft and the theme this week, set by Jenny is to 'Alter Something. This really challenged me (which is good) as I have never altered anything before and after rifling through practically every drawer and cupboard in the house I settled on a jar that contained Cranberry sauce that was left over from Christmas. I ditched the contents in the bin, put the jar through the dishwasher and once dry set about creating my masterpiece lol! I've used design papers from a DCWV word paper stack and I've used ribbons, flowers and brad from my stash. I've covered the lid with a nestie and then another just for matting and layering. I then filled my jar with teeny weeny marshmallows and gave the gift to Sophie for Valentine's Day. I really enjoyed my first attempt at altering something and my thanks go to Jenny and the Cupcake Craft Challenge for giving me this opportunity to be a GD and to alter my first item. TFL :)

Absolutely beautiful Donna! I'm totally a coward when it comes to altering things, my first attempt was a complete disaster and it's put me off. I would never have known this gorgeous jar of goodies started off as a cranberry sauce jar LOL, it's amazing, brilliant job Donna! I bet Sophie loved it. Chris x
