Happy Birthday {My Besties Aussie Challenge 5}

{HELLO ...}

I am so honoured to have been approached by the wonderful Rose to join the awesome design team over at My Besties Aussie Challenge, and of course it was a resounding yes.

So here is my very first design team project for My Besties Aussie and, also for the first time only, using this super cute and fun Besties image from Sherri Baldy which you can purchase HERE. The theme for Challenge 5 is Lace and Handmade Flowers.

The  folded pinwheel flowers have been created with scallop square punches.  The brads, buttons, brown lace flowers and design papers are from my stash.  The flourishes have been stamped with Chiswick acrylic stamps and fussy cut by hand. The cute and fun image has been coloured with copics and a white H2O Derwent pencil. 

The sentiment is from Paulette {Create with TLC}.  


Hop over to My Besties Aussie Challenge and enter your Bestie creations for Challenge 5
