Hello everyone,
Baco to Wednesday again, that week flew by, but in a good way...
I have new kitchen taps, my permanently locked backdoor is unlocked and fixed now and a door stop behind my laundry door and expecting, but not positively, a new clothesline in the near future..it's the little things isn't it..
So, Wednesday, time for a new challenge over at Little Red Wagon and our lovely Brenda is hostess, and her theme this week is " Use your Scraps" well my friends, my favourite pass time is using scraps, so not hard for me..
First up, I made my panels
The papers are beautiful florals but none of them match
and are slightly odd lengths, so we make the most of it..
and I cut them smaller this time instead of adding to the lengths.
Music sheets were my main background..
and using more scraps of " My Favourite Things " black and white stripes,
I added a tiny strip on the bottoms for interest..
See..and what is behind panel number one?
It's a pocket,with a thin note book inside..
Added beautiful monarch washi butterflies..
and a shabby ribbon for the look of a closure,
but it isn't closing anything, just looks right..
die cut a lovely sentiment in pink foil cardstock.and
a thinking of you on the outside..
and there she is, a tri fold with inside flap and pocket..
So do come and join us HERE would love to see you..
thank you so much for stopping by..
I'll see you tomorrow..
Luv CHRISSYxx
