minibeasts

Bonjour

I hope everyone is well and enjoying some crafty time.

My tag this week is an altered beer mat.  I couldn't decide whether to interpret the theme prettily or scarily but pretty won the day!

I covered the beer mat with some paper napkin and then dirtied it up a bit with some distress ink in pumice stone.  I then added some silver mesh and a TH die cut and embossed butterfly cut from some paper featuring text to echo the background.  I then added some distress inks in shades of pink and purple.  I finished off with some ricrac ribbon as the tie.  Hope you like it.

Off to explore your minibeasts!

See you next week.

  1. Clever idea with the beer mat. Really gorgeously done. You're like me - my first alternative was a properly scary one. I like you tag very much!
