Happy Thursday!
I have some very exciting news to share with you today. I was thrilled and honored when Valou emailed me and told me I had been chosen as one of the DT Members of Magnolia Forever. I hope you will join our Anything Goes Challenge. Our sponsor for this challenge is Cards Und More.
For my first project I chose a wooden butterfly box that I purchased at Michael's for $3.50. I use Martha Stewart purple paint as the base and the used a sponge effect using a copper color paint. Please see below what I used to create my project.
