I haven't created any home decor items in ages, so when the challenge to use some bunting came up at the ATDML cybercrop I decided to create a little piece for our house.
I started by die cutting the letters on my silhouette and the tag was a free shape I could play around with. I coated the Kaisercraft frame in white and then layered up some stitched pieces of Crate Papers Farmhouse Collection on the back of the frame. I then added twine and threaded it carefully through my tags, sticking down the tags at the same time - this was a little fiddly trying not to move what you had stuck as you went. I then stuck a button over the end of each piece of twine. I added a few of the stickers and chipboard pieces to either side of the frame too - I love how quick and easy it is to embellish something using all the little stickers you get in collection packs, which is funny as it isn't something that automatically jumps into my cart when I shop (I mainly go for paper!), so note to self next time to have a browse through all the wonderful stickers.
Even my husband likes this, which is praise indeed from someone that doesn't appreciate the need for pretty non essential things around the house :)
They do surprise us occasionally don't they, my dh is the same.
