Altered Old Planner

Another altered project. This is an old planner measuring 3" x 5" and I don't know what happened to the front cover, maybe I have discard it. I adhered the front and back panel of the planner with bright and colourful patterned paper. For embellishment, I simply added a yellow ribbon to the left side of the front cover. Super easy.

Altered Fridge Magnet

This an old fridge magnet sticking on my fridge, which I never bother to even look at it. I was inspired by Get Sketchy Challenge "Trash to Treasure" to alter it. I drew the template accordingly on a patterned paper, cut and adhered over the old photo frame magnet sticker and added this cute image from Digi Kitty. Easy peasy.
