FAVOURITE EMBELLISHMENT...DT

 Hello everyone,

Another fortnight has flown by and it is time for another new challenge over at As You Like It where Elaine is our hostess and the them is ..." Favourite Embellishment "

My project this time is a big one, I went so crazy for these adorable images from our sponsor Last Minute Manda and leaves and my favourite embellishment is my " PUMPKINS " and I will slip those things into lots of projects but mainly Autumn ones as that is my favourite season too...


I started this one up with printing, fussy cutting, and colouring my images..


Then I mutilated a cardboard box,
 I did try to be gentle but the cardboard was thick and chewy!!


Now these leaves totally fascinated me, they are not paper, sort of a material 
of sorts, and the colours are amazing, I found these at my local 123 shop.


So, I glued them down across the top of the box after adding glitter cardstock that nothing will stick too, so they were weighted down for quite awhile..


Not that patient to wait at the bottom, I stapled them on.


Then on went all my bits, mushrooms are one of my favourites too.


See, mushrooms, toadstools, I love them.


I found some moss too, have always loved this stuff but can never buy it around here, but can now, so I bought  a truck load, well, not really a truck load, but lifetime supply for sure..


So all glued together and those flaps at the side help it to stand alone..


See, standing up there and looking mighty fine..


The sentiment is a stamp from a Tonic Studio card kit 100 years ago, I stamped into gray cardstock and DONE!!

Thank you to our sponsor this fortnight..



and do come and join us if you can, would love the see you HERE with you favourite embellishment..



Thank you so much for stopping by..
I'll see you soon..

Luv CHRISSYxx

Oh my word Mrs, you did it again.....This is a work of art, I just love it, the Autumn colours are amazing aren't they and those little cute images are adorable, I just love how you built this up Chrissy. I know what you mean about the moss, I also think I know where you got yours, mine came from our favourite shop so I guess you did the same, haha. xx
