MAKE IT MONDAY #255: STRING ART USING DIE-CUTS

MIM0704_3-1

Create a project utilizing your take on the challenge. Your project must use at least one Papertrey product and string art using die cuts.

I had this idea using a Life is Beautiful butterfly for my string art. 


Donna Gourley used that really fine metallic thread we all bought for Stamp-a-Faire last year.
I thought it was a genius idea... so I stole it.
Thank you Donna!!! 


It was suggested to me that I wrap more string then I originally planned...


That was a great idea!


This was my original version...not as string arty...


This paper is an oldie, but goody...Happy Spots!


Have I mentioned how much I LOVE the new Big Basics word dies.

I gonna wear 'em out I tell 'ya...

Thank you for looking at my blog!

  6. The added string looks great, Susan. Actually, your design works well either way with that metallic thread. Your bold, black sentiment looks awesome.
