A 'name' wall hanging.






First of all I must apologise for the poor quality of the photos, as the sun was shining brightly my camera flash decided that it was bright enough and just wouldn't fire, even when I did set it to go off, the picures were just too bright!

Anyway I digress. I made this piece for my friend's little girl, I have been looking for an excuse to use up some of my paper stash and this was the very thing. I used the Eazi-Score alphabets large lowercase templates for the letters, drew around them, cut them out, chalked the edges slightly to 'define' the letters, then mounted them onto some matching paper and card, I joined them together using jumprings. finished it off with some fun wooden shapes and some satin ribbon.
Then made a box and embellished it with the girls initial and some pretty paper flowers.

My friend was thrilled with it and so was her little girl.

Thanks for looking in
