{DT Project Lady Anne's Paper Crafts: Challenge #1 - Friday Sentiments}
I am so honoured to have been approached by Berni Cuttino from Chasing the Dream to be part of the brand new Design Team for Lady Anne's Paper Crafts' Bi-weekly Friday Sentiments Challenge. Our first challenge, going live today Friday, 31 August 2012, is to use a sentiment with a twist to add some corner shapes somewhere on your project. How much easier can you get. So I really hope you will play along.
I used a Bugaboo digi image called Beautiful Blocks: Live Love Laugh. You can find it here.

Its an easel card design. The sentiment "Joy is Yours Today Just Take It!" is from Create with TLC . The design papers were from BasicGrey.
I cropped the butterfly from the main image and scaled and printed it a few times to use as the butterfly embellishments.
I cropped the butterfly from the main image and scaled and printed it a few times to use as the butterfly embellishments.
I used H2O's to colour the main image. The mauve corners were punched with a Paper Shapers punch. The green check patterned corners were folded and here is a little tutorial for them.
Step 1: Cut a piece of cardstock 3x6cm
Step 2: Fold the one corner over
Step 3: Fold the other corner over
Step 4: Clip this folder corner onto the corners of your project
So I hope you will play along with us at our very first Sentiment Challenge with an added twist of adding corners. So hop on over to Lady Anne's Paper Crafts and link your creation.
