Dress Up with Beads

Happy Wednesday everyone!

First, I would like to welcome my new followers, what a lovely surprise you guys are following me now too, hope you like what you see!

I have to be honest, this week's Fab 'n Funky theme had me stumped at first, my teamie Rachel had set a challenge alright! She is asking for projects featuring " Beads". I quickly realised that I didn't have any beads in my stash, but that was easily fixed by a quick trip to a local book & craft fair. Once I had the beads, the next challenge was to incorporate them into my card's design. I decided on threading them on some twine and make a border out of them. My teamies have come up with quite a few ideas, so have a look at the challenge blog post before you start on your own project. Here's mine:




Materials:
* Digi Darla Fancy Dress, coloured with Promarkers & Spectrum Noirs
* Sakura Purple Glitter pen for the bodice
