Ginger Blossoms..


This is my submission for Bree's SBS6 weekly challenge (I'm a wee bit late). I promise Brianne I will do better this week!! My husband finally went back to work and I'm back to taking care of my out of control 2 year old; it's a lot more stressful that I had imagined! Ok now for my project-the tin is just a clear top 4 oz tin that I purchased from specialty bottle. I covered the bottom part of the tin with SU's new ginger blossom paper. For the lid I just stamped the blossom image from the new embrace life set onto ww cardstock and then watercolored the flowers. After the coloring I matted the main image onto a scalloped river rock circle.
