Another fabulously fun MAMA (Marie Antoinette Mail Art) swap! For this one we were assigned a partner and we altered a miniature bottle. My bottle was purchased from Alpha Stamps. I added rinestones and lace and some vintage embellishments. This fleur-de-lis piece is from an old earring. I love the way it offers a french feel to the bottle, and I had so much fun with the black and aqua color palette. Aqua seems to be my new favorite color! And as usual, I find when I leave my comfort zone and try something new for a swap I always end up really loving the creative process. I am now looking forward to working on more bottles. Thank you so much Laura Carson for hosting such a wonderful swap!
And a very Happy Pink Saturday to the visitors from Beverly's Saturday link party.

Oh, now I want to try making something wonderful like this! What an incredibly beautiful bottle. I love aqua too and it was so fun to hear my 7 year old granddaughter say that it was her favorite color! Happy Pink Saturday.
That bottle is crying out for some wonderful perfume to go in it. Have you tried mixing your own perfume? it is such fun!
Marti - I'm loving this gorgeous bottle! How perfect is that fleur-de-lis ?!? The colors you've used are beautiful; they are a nice change from all the pink we usually use for MAMA projects (lol). Happy Sunday!
Marti, your bottle is stunning! I love the beautiful color palette you used, and the fleur-de-lis is perfect. Love the stopper too!
Hope you had a Happy Pink Saturday. I love the altered bottle. Joyous Wishes, Linda
What a beautiful little perfume bottle. I love the colors of the stones, it will look very pretty on a dresser, Maureen
