DYSU # 55 - Patterned Paper

Hi all, today brings us another challenge from DYSU, and this week, our challenge is 'Patterned Paper'! Yep, get that pretty paper you've been hoarding, and use it!




This week, the DT were lucky to have been given some wonderful quirky images from Copic Marker Scrapbooking. I chose this fun image of owls within a frame.




I coloured the image with Promarkers, and cut with Nestie Squares, layered onto some kraft cut with more nesties. The patterned paper is from Nancy Watt Owls and Swirls design, from Making Cards Magazine, and the little tags are cut and stamped using Papertrey Inks Tiny Tags.

I finished off with some felt flowers, and a Prima crystal, and some green baker's twine from The Ribbon Reel.

Here are our sponsors this week:

Thanks for stopping by,
