The Fall Button Floozie Altered Altoid Tin Swap

Look what the very artistic Carolyn (CJ) Hyland fashioned for me in the Fall Button Floozie (altered altoid tin) button swap.  Laurie Jackson of Button Floozie Blog hosted this swap, and I love the sweet artsy tin I got filled with buttons. 
and on the bottom she put these sweet little legs from glass marbles for feet.  
I was tickled to get it.  This was the first altered altoid tin I have done.  

And below is the one  that I sent on to CJ.


Then I wrapped it all up in a vintage hankerchief and tied it with ribbon
I made a pretty little card for her and tied it all up with some fallish colored fiber.
