Show Us Your Stuff!

As Lovelybug Bits n Bobs is sponsoring during May at Show Us Your Stuff, I thought I should play along with one of this month's challenges. If you haven't played along before, then pop over and have a go! (These days everyone is bound to have some handmade embellishments in their stash.) May challenge #1 was to create something using ribbon / trim / lace, and of course, a handmade item.
Here's my take on it...


I used gorgeous Websters Trendsetter pink ruffle trim to make the little rosettes, and added some extra ribbon in my embellishment cluster. I also included a handmade cupcake button from My Little Bit of Whimsy; Kaisercraft 'Bubblegum Hills' chipboard pieces, a hand-dyed crochet doiley and a paper doiley coloured with chalkboard glimmermist. The pp and journal card are both Echo Park 'Summer Days' (there's not much left on my desk now...LOL) from Handmade By Suzanne.

Speaking of Handmade By Suzanne - have you entered the May sketch challenge yet? There's just over a week left to get your entry in with a $30 store voucher (plus free post) up for grabs! Click HERE for the sketch. :-)
