may you SHINE always

 


I originally created this LO for the "My Scraproom Rules" competition over at Scrapping Outback - the photo and the title mean so much to me that I thought I'd share it with you and submit it for a new challenge site called Scrap that song (a song based challenge site)  This month's challenge is to choose from either Shannon Noll's - "Shine" or Taylor Swift's - "You belong with me" and I chose "Shine".  The photo, taken by my son Robin, is of my beautiful grandaughter, Paige, at a fete. 


I handmade the little pins with beads purchased separately (shhh told tell DH as I promised I was never going to get into 'beading' LOL).  I've used Kaiser pp and pearls and Glimmer Mist.

The butterflies and  micro beads were in my stash ! I have used liquid appliqué for the feaux stitching and double sided mounting tape for dimension on the tree, mushroom, flower chippie and the butterfly bodies. 



The 'forget-me-not ' flower chippie that I have paper pieced, as well as the SHINE chippie are both Rachelle Minett designs.     Enjoy and thanks for visiting xxx

Quote of the Day

butterfly kisses

My fairy

Your fairy is called Columbine Goblinglitter
She is a bringer of riches and wealth.
She lives in mushroom fields and quiet meadows.
She is only seen in the light of a shooting star.
She wears lilac and purple like columbine flowers. She has gentle green wings like a butterfly.
