There's a new weekly challenge being hosted on Papercraft Planet for 3-D items! The challenge will be posted every Tuesday, and anyone is welcome to play along!
Today, Design Team Super Nova Adela Rossol is hosting the challenge, and she decided the challenge would be to alter a tin can! So I decided to make a little St. Patty's gift to have on hand for a quick gift filled with some candies! I wrapped a 15 1/2 oz. can with cardstock and designer paper, adding a scalloped border. Using my Crop-a-dile, I punched holes in each side, braided some ribbon and threaded it through the holes. I find that braiding the ribbon gives it more stability. Then I stamped my shamrock from Kitchen Sink Stamps Love & Luck stamp set, and added a sentiment from Ready 4 Any Holiday.
We really hope you'll join us for this 3-D Challenge! You can check out all the details in the 3-D Challenge group on PCP. Upload your creation to PCP, tag your photo with 3D1, then leave a link to your creation in the group thread so everyone can check it out!
I can't wait to see what you come up with! Happy stamping, and thanks for visiting today!
