Woven page

Hi everyone just a quick post to show my latest dictionary page for the ALPHA challenge over at The Craft Barn. The letter this week is R and I chose RIBBON as my word. I missed the last letter but my M page is on the wall of fame at Craft Barn, woo hoo!!
RIBBON is defined as:

I applied acrylic paint over both pages and when it was dry I added some distress inks and on the left side I added strips of ribbon woven and stamped flourishes over the page. I also used paste on a stencil and added glitter and some glimmer spray.


I took two different backing papers, cut them into strips, wove them together and cut a heart out of the finished weave.


Sorry for the cropped photo but otherwise my thumb was in full view:)

We had a beautiful day here today and it was so nice to feel the warmth of the sun. Didn't stop me booking a week away in sunnier climes though:)

Thanks for taking the time to visit and I love to read your comments. I'll be back tomorrow with my LIM card:)
