Earth Day continuation

If you're still hopping pop down one post, this is my continuation post :)

Hello, here we are on the continuation of my Blog Hop inspired creations. This is my fourth creation of this kind. This is the largest jar i recycled and on it is Michelle's Sleepy Time Angel. I had two of these images left over from another craft session where due to the ink running out the colour had changed and so i didn't use them. I applied the handmade white paper to the jar and finished off the edges with the glitter strips i was sent in my docrafts goodie bag, kept them white as i felt it fitted with the theme. I cut out both angels and mounted them on top of each other and then onto the jar.I addeds some pink and yellow star buttons to the jar with some silicone glue, some smaller coloured plastic moons. I had some soft letters in pink so added the word Dream under the angel and added a little more glitter strip with the star from the angel above her rather than under her. 


I painted what was a brown coffee lid with white acrylic paint and added a piece of the white hand made paper on top and sealed it all with some pva glue. To finish of the lid i added a matching star button.
I have found this such fun to do and plan to make more. There are two others my original much simpler version with OWLS :) and another which is a gift for a friend hence the lack of pictures. Fun fun fun. 
Happy Earth Day
