CC3 Challenge: worn covers.

Hello lovelies. How are you? We're all good - Shaun admitted to being bored a little now so I think he's definitely getting better! He's having proper solid food now and starting to enjoy it - so thats all good.

Today I have my entry to the CC3 challenge this fortnight which is worn covers. Here's what I have done:


I'm using my make to home my Tims tag 2013. They've been hanging around looking for a home and this is perfect. Thanks to Kath Stewart for the idea!


The compendium-of-curiosities-3-challenge-13 is sponsored by Inspiration Emporium who are sponsoring the challenge to a massive $50 prize. There's also a goodie bag to be had to the winner chosen by the curiosity crew. 


I decorated the inside too!

I used the apothecary papers, the chemist stamp, distress sprays and inks, layering stencils and of course a worn cover. 

I'd like to enter this into the compendium-of-curiosities-3-challenge-13

Big hugs to you!

Rachel

    That is wonderful news about Shaun, he must be relieved to be on solid food, it will help to build up his strength again. Love your binder - great minds, I have just finished mine to house my 2015 tags - assuming Tim will continue that is!! Hugs, Anne xx

    Hi Rachel omg just been reading all about what has been happening life my end has been hectic but nothing like yours and can only say sorry for not calling by before now. So glad he sounds like he has been through the worse of it and I wish that he goes from strength to strengh and as you say he will get stronger. I used to be on some of those tablets that stop the body rejecting and they are not as bad as they sound just need to keep an eye on the white blood cells. Big hugs to you all. xx

    This is fabulous Rachel, I love the colours and stenciled details.
    It sounds really positive if Shaun is beginning to get fed up and enjoying his food has got to be a good sign, I'm so pleased that he is continuing to make such good progress.
