For this challenge I created a little piece which started life as an ordinary clothespin
The first step was to take the clothespin apart. I then covered it with musical note paper which I had received from my dear friend Faerwillow a while ago, it was perfect. The edges are inked with Adirondack Rust.Having seen rolled flowers all over I decided to embellish the clothespin with a rolled fabric flower. This was such great fun ... it was quick and easy, a tutorial can be found here! The fabric is soft polyester silk in a ginger-coppery tone with black ornaments. I added two leaves cut with PaperArtsy diecut from copper glittercard. The finishing touch is a little sparkly button. I love the flower and there is already more fabric lined up for production!
Now you know what I created, just have a look at all the other amazing pieces and show us yours, Petra.
