How Much Is To Much....

Hello everyone,
Today I'm guest desinger at the How Much is To Much challenge blog.  Come on over and play along for a chance at the monthly prize. 

The challenge:
Something old is new again! It’s time to go dumpster diving….(well at least in your scrap room) and pull out some of those old papers and embellishments and see what you can do with them. I don’t want to see them in raw form, I want you to add to them or change them to make them new. You can use paints, glues and glitters, inks or whatever other creative idea you come up with.

And this is my lo. 

I hope you have the chance to play along. 

Have a great day,
Joyce
