Challenge # 4 - This used to be... a Cereal Box!!

Good morning people!!

Welcome to a brand new month, with a brand new Challenge and lots and lots of cool stuff that we will unveil one by one.

Throughout September, you are going to see our Design Team come up with inspiring ideas for this month's challenge; which is, ah ha...... hold on ;)

I wanna show you what I made before I announce the challenge and I hope you guess it :)

Let me show you what I did. I took a simple cereal box, the smallest one available...

...and made it into a TV!!!!!

The content inside the TV is movable... Here are more pictures of the TV 

To see how I made this in detail, watch the video.

A few tips while you’re making this cute TV...

1.       Use a very thin/light weight paper for the contents of the inside of the card because the thicker the paper, the more it will be difficult for it to roll around the pencil/stick.

2.       DO NOT use photos on layers (even a second layer of thin paper) on this inside. It will spoil it when you’re rolling it. Stamps are the best way to decorate and embellish the contents of the TV.

3.       If you want to add photos, print it directly on the sheet that you plan to use on the inside. That way, you won’t be adding layers.

4.       It may be a good idea to use a strong tape/adhesive while gluing the ends of the joined sheet to the pencil/stick. However, for putting the pieces of the sheet itself together, I have realised that washi tape is better than scotch tape as it is very very thin and makes rolling the sheets easier.

The challenge this month is of course - you guessed it -

This used to be....!

Here is what we are looking for! 
Select any article/object of your choice, add your magic to it  and transform it into something completely different. The only consideration is that the end result should be NOTHING like what it was before.So its important you post a BEFORE and a AFTER picture for the DT to judge. We are looking for some real transformation and not just the routine craft recycle stuff!! Your basic article can be any size or shape..just about anything that catches your fancy. You are only limited by your imagination. Dont worry this month onwards the DT will showcase their first projects within first 10 days so you have enough inspiration coming in! Remember we are looking for a unique project.... so put your thinking caps on! I hope we have really challenged you!
