LESSology Challenge #31: Creative inspiration of Julie Tucker-Wolek and Lynnda Hosni

Do you have a broken toy laying around OR a worn toy that has seen better days? Why not incorporate it in your project for LESSology Challenge #31: Toy Story? How about a little creative inspiration from design team members Julie Tucker-Wolek and Lynnda Hosni?

Hi everyone!! Julie with you here today to share my take on our November challenge - Toy Story!! :) 

I recently purchased a BUNCH of vintage children's wooden blocks and have made A LOT of altered projects with them and I had more left over and was inspired by a block puzzle Michelle made and decided to try making a puzzle myself :) 

Here are the blocks I started with :) 

And here is what it looked like after I added the "first" layer of papers on the blocks :) 

Then I took four tags from the Bo Bunny collection I was using and cut them up to create my "puzzle" effect :)  And here is the four sides I turned into "puzzles" :) 

And here is what the blocks look like when the puzzle is all mixed up :) 

Can't wait to see what you create for this challenge!! ~~Julie :) 

Hi Everyone!

It's me Lynnda here with you today!... Yup... time really flies... this is LESSology last project for 2013!!! And the challenge for November is to use TOY!!!  This is pretty easy for someone who has a 9yrs old BOY!!! Matin actually helped me to choose which of his toys to use for this project!!!

These are the upcycled items- 1)For the based of my layout I used a cardboard 

2)For the toy I used Matin's mini Frisbee

3)And I also found some colourful feathers from his art&craft work!

The 8x8 Layout attached with a mini album! {my 1st attempt!}
