I am really looking forward to seeing what you will make of this challenge "Alter a mousetrap" when I first heard this I did think OMGosh ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I did a few deep breathes and came up with this. I covered the MT in paper and stamped text over it, added bits of old book and gold leafing I rubbed in sepia to age it all. And on the shiny metal I dripped rust alcohol ink to age. To decorate I used 2 punched out paper hearts and I made 2 rolled paper flowers and a swirl. Can you spot my cheeky mouse he holds the secret to escape of the trap Thank goodness LOL. I do hope you give it a go it was a lot of fun doing this and the best thing is we the DT did a swap mine went to Florence and I was lucky to get Chrissies. Then Janet made us all one each as a surprise.
Thanks for stopping by and do look at Florence, Janet and Chrissie to see their lovely projects. Hugs Sandra XXX

Only you could make a mousetrap look so elegant Sandra. I just love it and also love the way that all our mousetraps looked different from each other. Always great to craft with you.
Love Chrissie xx
Hi Sanda. Fantastic altered trap. Love the little mouse in the corner. So cute! Fab embellishments. I can't wait to receive this. Thank you so much. I think our post is delayed again because of the holiday season. These were great fun. I can see them becoming addictive!! lol!
