The cue for this month is Old Design Paper ...
You all know I am talking about! That paper pack you bought 12 years ago and sitting on your shelf for you to stare at but never cut into ... until now!
Yep! Thats right. We want you to pull it out, give it a hug, tell it thanks for memories, then use it to make a fabulous card, scrapbook page or other project and we want you to tell us how long you've had that old piece of Design Paper!
If you are having troubles cutting into that paper I recommend you check out these two channels on YouTube .. they will change the way you look at and use your design papers!

Our challenge this month starting on June 15th is to use some CHERISHED DESIGN PAPER...
I printed the image Hippity Hoppity Bunny Gnome and coloured it with markers.
Having trimmed it to size I added faux stitching with a fineliner.
I then attacked my paper pad.
I bought this when we were living in Abu Dhabi - we left there in 2013... some lovely papers in this!
I used one piece as a first matting layer with a strip cut off and layered at the bottom over the image. I then cut several banners from another piece adding them with faux stitching.
Happy crafting!
