Not a card.

Now for something completely different for me, and totally out of my comfort zone.  This fortnights challenge over at Sarah Hurley is "Altered".  I have never altered anything except for taking the hem up on a pair of trousers, but somehow I don't think that would count ;o)  

I had an A6 A-Z book that I had never used, and thought I would jazz it up a bit.  I used the fab telephone paper and digi image from the Britannia CD.  I added a crown charm to where the crown is on the phone box and a gem for the door handle. I also added some organza ribbon to use as a page marker.


Ingredients
Papers - Britannia CD
A-Z - Staples
Ribbon, charm and gem from stash.

I hope you like it and pop over and join us for our last fortnightly challenge before we go monthly :D

I would like to enter it into the following challenges
Try it on Tuesday - So very British
Scrappy Frogs - Red, white and blue
One Stitch at a Time - Olympic colours(Team GB Red, white and blue)
CD Sunday  - A is for Altered (Britannia CD used)
