A Bit of Altered Art -- for Julia Spiri

It's Thursday, and time for a new challenge at the Julia Spiri Challenge Blog.  Today, we start challenge #7, alter something.  I chose to alter a Kraft container, and used a delightful (aren't they all?) Julia Spiri image to do it. 

I used "Girl with Hair Wrap" and colored her with Copic markers.  I used a Spellbinder die, cutting it out 3 times, to back the image with.  The Kraft container is covered with some Close To My Heart papers, matching the colors in my image.  The white lace, from Really Reasonable Ribbon, was inked on the edges with some Tim Holtz distress ink.  

I plan to use this container for a birthday gift.  I'm thinking it will be perfect to hold some hair accessories.

I hope you find time to join us at the Julia Spiri challenge blog for our altered item challenge.  It will run for 2 weeks.
