Hello there, did you think I'd run away?
Crafting has had to take a back seat lately, there's been so much going on and I don't know how you find it but the longer it is between playing,
the harder it is to get creative.
I have to say that when I saw the theme for the new Challenge at Southern Girls
, I panicked a little, you know me, I'm a CAS kinda girl, and the theme chosen for our
Team Lou is
As usual we have some brilliant sponsors for this one,
I used Isabella by one of them,
I also used a Marianne Craftable die, not the entire die cut but segments cut from Vintage Frame.
Have to say though that despite my fears, once I got into it I thoroughly enjoyed using the theme! I found myself using paint to distress the kraft envelope that I used as my base layer, I roughed up some of my edges with a nail file and broke out the Mega flakes, just a shame I couldn't find my flitter glue! I also managed a first thanks to Colette and my lucky win at Cosmic Strawberry last month, I used a doily!
You could be seeing a few more
Shabby Chic Makes

CCC71, Twine,
CM, Diecut,
DOC87, At least one flower,
