The Little Things #2

I am taking part in a summer time swap organised by Clare called The Little Things. The idea is make small swap materials (following Clare's tutorials) and we have a small box that everything will fit in for the swap.

Unfortunately I have fallen behind a bit as I have been MIA at home/on my blog, due to family illness. Everything is hopefully on the mend so I will try and catch up.

#2 is our cotton reel

I decorated a strip of watercolour card

I used gesso and versafine on the reel

I punched a flower and some small tags (there is a hidden message inside the strip)

I used a charm from the kit Clare supplied and tied it with a ribbon - I may try and find a lighter turquoise ribbon

I am entering my make into the following challenges;

Sister Act Card Challenge - Linky Party
Delightful Challenges - Anything but a Card
Make it Monday - Linky Party

Hope your Saturday is going well!
