A First for me


Over on Something Completely Different the challenge is a Trinchie which I have not done before now and not even heard of until now. A trinchie is a 3"x3" piece of art work and the theme on SCD is love and romance. I used Spun Sugar, one of Tim's new Distress Inks, to colour my background the image is from Crafty Individuals. Down the side I have used a piece of Tim's film ribbon and attached the piece of lace using TH's mini attacher. The silver is a piece of German scrap above the banner which I cut from Blonde Moments paper. The letters I cut on my Cricut from Blonde Moments paper and drew round them with a black pen to make them pop. The flowers were white, I coloured them with the Spun Sugar and put a tiny button in the middle of each one. I have edged all the way round with Victorian Velvet another of Tim's new colours.
