Bo Bunny May Blog hop Number 2

Welcome to today's Bo Bunny Blog Hop!!!


If you've arrived from Carin's blog, then you're on the right track!


If not, if you've just happened upon my blog, then please go back to Tomoko's blog and start the hop from the beginning!
You really don't want to miss out on any of the fabulous projects created by my fellow Bo Bunny DT'ers!


Now onto my project for today!



I created a small wall hanging. It measures 6.5" x 6". The base is a piece of chipboard leftover from a Bo Bunny word album.




I used the Gabrielle range of papers and embellishments. To add dimension I used the buttons in two sizes and bakers twine to tie the little knots.

The fringe on the bottom is one of the Gabrielle trims which I've stapled on to make it more secure.

This last photo shows how I cut around the wings of the butterfly so that I could raise the wings, to give the illusion of movement.



I hope you've enjoyed your visit to my blog!
Your next stop is the very talented, Tara Orr, you do not want to miss this blog. Have fun!!



Don't forget to leave a comment.... you could be the lucky winner of a Bo Bunny prize!

Hope you'll stop by again soon!
Have a super day :0)
