A great craft day with my friend last week changed that and now I have some LOs done for some challenges.
The first one I've finished is for Sketches with a Twist. I have not done the chevron pattern before so I was eager to enter this challenge. My good friend showed me how to do it with a square punch and cutting the squares into triangles, then positioning them to form the pattern.
For the rest I've kept this LO pretty simple because the chevron and my nice bright papers did enough themselves.
I have used papers I have had for a while, waiting for the right photos that could use bright papers. My title is from foam letters I found at K-mart for $1. I love finding little bargains.
I inked this chipboard butterfly from Stuff 2 scrap with pink ink and the journalling is done on a rub on from Kaiser craft which I have backed with a scalloped circle punch. I used a number of them to get the right size. The twist element - 3 identical embellishments; my paper roses.
A little cluster of embellies for the sketch requirement and to add a bit more touch to the LO.
Hope you like it and I'll be back tonight to do some more posting ☺
