I was so inspired I just had to have a go and fortuitously I’ve had this old Marks and Sparks suitcase in my craft room for years.
The inside is beautiful, if a little crumbly but I’m leaving it as it is for now.
The first thing I’ve done is spray the catches and outer plastic rims with gold spray paint to hid the rust and freshen them up.
I decided to use papers from a DCWV Spring Glitter stack as the quality is strong and thick and as all the designs are of the same colour pallet so I don’t have to worry about matching everything together. I’ve done the fiddly corners and rivety bits first and have got as far as covering the top.
Finishing it off will take me a bit of time …. but when it’s done I’ll show you again… As I’ve got a few days away booked in November I’m using that as my deadline… even if I’m not absolutely sure I will actually use it!
