Hi again,
Back again with a new challenge over at
We got two fantastic sponsors for you this month
A paper pad and 2 sheets of images
and
$10 voucher
our theme this month is picked by Vickie
and she chosen
VINTAGE OR SHABBY CHICK
I have altered a notebook this time and made it into a recipe book.
I used a image that I got as a freebie from Create with TLC. Isn´t she gorgeous?
I tear of the edges and then inked them with a brown chalk.
I destressed all edges to make them look older. I used an edge scraper and then inked them with brown chalk.
I used a few different ribbon, strings and laces to add some interest to the binding. Also added a few different die cuts, charms, paper clips.
Hope you liked it! I had planed to give it away but now I´m not sure that I can.
Now it´s time for you to pop over to
to see what my team mates cooked up for you.
We are also looking for some new team mates.
So we got a DT CALL
are you the one we looking for?

SvaraRaderaThis is perfect - a great gift! I know how you feel - did a notebook for recipes for a friend, too, and then ended up making two more - for another friend and myself. :) You'll make another one for yourself.
