Lace
This week's ABC challenge is Lace - you can interpret it how you want as long as the lace element is clear.
I love lace and so many of my cards feature it so it wasn't much of a challenge. So my challenge was to go chintzy (Thanks Vicky and Hubby) and I think I have - well as far chintzy as my comfort zone will take me!!
I have watercoloured this gorgeous PB and used my nesties to cut the scalloped oval. The dp is Basic Grey and the olive green cardstock is a new one from the Paper Mill shop - it has a shimmer and brown vein to it. I thought I would cheat and get out the sewing machine as it would be quicker - how wrong was I?!! I sew loads of clothes for the kids and hubby for his 17th Century hobby, and yet can't put a piece of card through and keep it in a straight line!!
Anyway I machine stitched the different papers and added lace, pink gems and prima flowers from my stash.
I look forward to your interpretations of lace.
