I machined stitched the border using a decorative stitch and misted the background. For my handmade item I used a crochet trim that I made. I have had it for a little while, waiting for the right page. The crochet pattern is actually a shell pattern which suits it also☺. I have used 2 safety pins to secure the end of my crochet trim to the page and tied twine to them for some decoration.
This large flower is actually a paper clip. I found a pkt of them at the local discount store.
Also from the store I found a pkt of these cute shells. I love using muslin on beach pages, to me it has a soft summer feel.
My banners using Bo Bunny-Barefoot and Bliss papers. Great beach papers. I have machined stitched borders onto the banners making them a bit more defined since they are all pattern papers.
I enjoyed using these 2 challenges together and the page came together nicely.
