DYSU 15: Scallops


It's week 15 at DYSU and the challenge this week is:
SCALLOPS


I used a cute bunny image from one of our sponsors this week: Stamp Fairy.  Who wouldn't love this cute little character called Clementine!


I made my own scallops by tracing around a diecut on the reverse of my paper, cutting them out and then I just layered them up. I added a piece of brown ribbon under the top scallop to produce a nice straight line to stamp the sentiment above.  I rounded the top corners and stitched around the edge.


I then used the same papers to paper piece the eggs and hair ties.  Clementine is printed onto another patterned paper and I just coloured the nose and ears.


You can check out our sponsors by clicking on the logos below.



  

Make sure to link up your SCALLOPED creation at DYSU.

    Spectacular card Jo! I love the plain top half versus the crazy bright prints on the bottom. And the paper-pieced eggs just rock!! Love it.
