An altered tin can

I've been trying some different type of materials lately,

This last week it's been Aluminum tape..

Pick it up at your local hardware store for about $4 for 10 ft.

I was a litle leery, but figured I could splurge on this just to see...

Today Hubby came in the craft room and said "whatcha makin"

I replied.. "I'm just playing around"

I think getting a feel for things is important, and so I

threw some alcohol ink on the tape, and ran it through an embossing

folder.  Then added a little bit of black gesso.  I then promptly stuck it on

a tin can that used to house some black olives (I made some pasta salad today.)

**And had every intention of writing a post about that.... but Hubby got a hold of it before

I could shoot any pics!**

Ok, so here's the tape project!

I'm pretty positive that this isn't some new project that's never been done before,

but I think it makes my paintbrush container awfully pretty!

I will definitely be buying the bigger roll of tape next time for a few bones more!

Have any of you ever played with this fun product before??
