Under the Sea Recycled Treasure Chest for Open Minded Crafting Fun Challenge!

Recently at Open Minded Crafting Fun Challenges the challenge was to "recycle" for Challenge #34. The images I was working with were Andrea's Little Pixels Lil May Mermaid Set which are adorable as they are pre-colored!!!!

I'm a herbal hot-tea drinker and for some odd reason, I have this habit of saving my empty herbal tea boxes. WELL, looking at this Twining empty box of tea, it looked like a treasure chest and it all fell together along of course with me singing "Under the Sea" from the Little Mermaid!!! Thus this became -



This:









RECIPE and SUPPLIES:
  • covered empty tea box with www.coordinations cardstock as it reminded me of wood
  • metal embellishments and pearls are from Miriam's Crafting Supplies 
  • mermaid is on a piece of fishing twine that when you open the chest, she comes up to visit your
  • gems behind mermaid were from Becca Dawn which she had put in my birthday card and are Darice
  • seahorse, clam shell, and mermaid have Stickle accents and are chalked around the edges
My apologies for not having this posted sooner but life has gotten in my way with getting ready to move my furniture and final things to where I am living and physical and mental exhaustion. I promise to be better but I just had to share with you my Under the Sea Adventure and now, let's all sing along:
