Altered Compacts

One of the latest swaps going on at the PID yahoo group is the altered compact. It is being hosted by one of my Design Team sisters, Miz Carla. Click here to learn all about this very cool project.
Here is what the inside of the above compact looks like:
And the inside bling, close up:
I enjoyed doing this so much, I decided to do a second one:



Both were colored with alcohol inks, then embellished with some PID images and assorted glitz. I filled the inside wells with seed beads before adding the flowers and leaves. Come to the yahoo group to see what some of my very talented friends have done with this challenge. Better yet, join us and make one yourself!

How cute, and you don't even miss the makeup. I'm just figuring out, what else the bling could be added to in my bag?!
