Good Evening peeps, just popping in to share with you a cute little challenge that I did yesterday and today. It is actually for two challenges, the first one being at Our Creative Corner. It was so cute, I couldn't resist. You had to use Denim, of some sort, either real denim or faux denim using a technique. You also had to have 3 ribbons or twine and 3 buttons or brads. I used a technique to make my kite 'denim', (that was the other challenge, it had to have a kite, over at the Inspiration Journal), complete with the orange stitching around the outside. Remember years ago all denim jeans had orange stitching, well, mine did, anyway, lol! I used the brads for the bows on the kite's tail and then I added some little blue bows to the bling. I used spiced marmalade for the tag over the top of a Cricut embossing folder. The little dangly was left over from a girlfriend's wedding embellishments. It was fun putting it together, hope you like it!
Hugs,
~Jody
