Lili of the Valley - Anything Goes


Ok I took the title as it stated and experimented and this is what I came up with and in a weird sort of way it works. I used my Cutterbee Bug to mark 5mm holes and then joined them up at opposites with a green marker pen to create a frame for the image, which was a rak of Jane I think. The flowers are prima and the brads making memories. The paper was from the bottom of my stash and the image cut out using Nesties. The sentiment is a peel off from stash.
Would be interested to see what people think.

Love the way you did the frame, it must have taken you hours. It looks like you used real thread, can't believe its hand drawn. Lovely creation. Hugs from Desire

Wow, Vicky, this is awesome! I've seen this somewhere before with a pattern template, I think I have that somewhere but never tried it! I think you just inspired me to dig through my clutter and find it! Thank you!
