Denim Denim Everywhere!


Our Creative Corner
weekly challenge is DENIM! Take some denim, add in 
3 ribbons or twine, and 3 buttons or brads on a project. 




My 10-yo niece spent a week with us this summer & before she left she picked out some papers to make her a compo notebook with... school starts NEXT WEEK for her so I finally got my hiney in gear to make this!





Printed Paper & Embellishments - Fancy Pants Off To School

3 Red Buttons - misc stash

3 pieces of twine - The Twinery

Blue Jean Pocket - via my worn out former yard mowing jeans

Ribbon - CTMH


I thought this was a good addition to the back of the folder along with that same ribbon wrapped around from the front

  8. My money is on the fact that when she takes this to school YOU are going to be in business to make MORE! I already want to order one! :)
    Amazing challenges you've brought to the table and I thank you for finally inspiring me to cut up those old jeans I keep swearing to myself I'll fit back into, but never will! LOL...
    Your project is stunning...again. :)
    Have a great week and hugs to you.
