Altering with a little Teresa Collins/Xyron :)

Well I played with some Teresa Collins and my Xyron Creatopia! The first time I met Teresa was fabulous!! She is the sweetest person and so open. Long story short she was talking about when and why she started scrapbooking and I don't think there was a dry eye in the house. I have said i'm going to alter a kleenex container and call it my "Teresa Collins" tissue! :) So here is a close up pic to start with.



Ok so to start I found this cool shaped kleenex holder



Next I ran the paper through my Xyron Creatopia to make sure the entire piece was covered with adhesive.



I then wrapped the paper around the container which was so easy to do thanks to my Creatopia...well then it was time to decorate. Here is what I came up with.



Supplies used: Xyron Creatopia/adhesive, Teresa Collins Posh line, Amber's Jewels & Donna's Gems, Tattered Angels mist Bubblegum & black (for the fabric flowers), and some tuelle.

  2. LOL - I LOVE why you are calling it your TC Kleenex holder! And it looks so cute - definitely not a regular tissue box that you would ever want to hide!
