Merry Monday #59

We had last week off but it is time for a new Merry Monday challenge, Lesley has another fantastic sketch for us this week. I ignored all the papers handy on my desk and went digging in my stash for something new and found this wonderful double-sided sheet.


 
 
I heat embossed the sentiment and coloured it with glitter pens and water colour pencils then used Spellbinders to cut image out as well as the frame around it. I added some texture to the strip across the bottom and finished with a button made with circle punches and added some twine.


 



Supplies: Cream and brown card stock, Designer paper - Bo Bunny, Spellbinders, circle punches, embossing folders, twine, Recollections gem.

Don't forget to stop by Lesley'sblog to see what she and the rest of the design team have created for this week’s challenge, join us and play along.

Cheers,
Nina
