UPCYCLED MILK TIN

UPCYCLED EMPTY BABY MILK FORMULA TINS

{Warning Photo Heavy Post}

It was cute little Nina's FIRST Birthday on 4 February 2015 and her dear mom, Jeanine has been saving all Nina's empty milk formula tins for me to use in my upcycling projects.  So I thought it fit to upcycle one especially for Nina to gift her a 1st birthday gift with.  I have used the cute little dancing elephant from QKR Stampede which you can purchase here.  The folded embellies have been created with scallop square punches. The sentiment is from Hannelie (Desert Diva). 

... and here are some photos of the photo shoot I did of Nina's cake smashing celebrating her first birthday.  The grown ups had more fun than little Nina, as she is a very neat little girl and did not want to get dirty at all.  It was more a cake caressing than a cake smashing photo shoot, lol. Nina's mom Jeanine, baked and decorated the beautiful cake - such a shame to have to dig into it.

I would love to try my hand at the following challenges with my upcycled milk tin:
