Well I made myself a promise that I would definately attempt the challenge over at 'Lets get Shabby' this month. I have been so very busy of late that I have missed a couple and quiet sad that I have as I simply LOVE this site. Anyway I was true to my promise and managed to get this one done... You can find out all about the challenge here: http://letsgetshabby.blogspot.com/2011/02/challenge-21.html
The challenge was to use denim and lace.
I decided to cut up an old pair of jeans that were sitting in the box of things to go to the salvo's and had it in my head just what I wanted to do. I am not completly satisfied that its shabby enough BUT am happy with my end results. I have used white tissue paper which I crumpled and layered to make a somewhat kind of frame for my photo. I then put layers of mod podge over this and the whole page. I used the denim to make part of the umbrella and also the stems of the flowers. I have used some pieces of lace and also tied a bow with a lacy piece from my mum....This is the gorgeous 'Evie' on the beach at the entrance.
'ENJOY'
And a couple of close-ups.....
The different laces and the detail of the tissue paper.....

Thats it for me this time round.
Take care.
