altoids tin for a barter

my friend nancy has started making jewelry.  i saw one of her pieces on another friend and loved it so i contacted her about buying a piece.  she said she wasn't ready to sell yet because she didn't think her pieces were good enough (wrong!) but since i couldn't talk her into selling it i said okay then i will bring you a handcrafted gift in exchange for a necklace.  i made her an altered tin.




the papers for the outsides and inside are all stash designer papers but the torn music and goddess image are from lunagirl.  i added pearls, a cloth flower, some flower petal stickers and a moth for embellishment.  i hope she will like it!

love to all.
