On the Edge!

Hello Friday Mashup fans, Kasey here, I am both excited and a little bit sad, this week marks the end of my term on the Friday Mashup Design Team.  I'm finishing on a week where it is my turn to bring you the challenge and I want you to be On the Edge!  Yes that's right, have a decorative edge on your project and mash it up by using ribbons and bows.    

Such a fabulous picture that Justin and Mary gave Holly permission to use for our challenge graphic this week. 

I have to thank Holly for taking me on to her team, firstly as a Guest Designer and then as a permanent member of the team.  My very first DT gig!  I've had such a wonderful time working with these talented crafters.  I've also seen some amazing creations from you, our followers and participants, in our weekly challenges.  

Welcome to the new Friday Mashup DT members, I am sure they are going to be bringing you some amazing projects to inspire and challenge you. I'll still be around on blog land and I'm working on three other DTs, I'll even stop by the Friday Mashup now and then to play along!


So here is the "Mashup" Challenge :
  1. Make a project " with a Decorative Edge! "
  2. Or Make a project with " Ribbon and or a Bow. "
  3. Or "Mash it Up" and create a project " with a Decorative Edge & Ribbon ". 
 Can't wait to see your edgy creations, here's mine!

 This is Adele and she appears to be lost in thought so I had to use this sentiment.  I love the way she turned out, she has this soft almost ethereal appearance to her, or perhaps that's just the look on her face.

Coloured with Copics


E11, E15, E19 & E50 for her hair  
E50, E51, E53 for her skin.  
I think I used YG41 and YG45 for her shirt (but my memory can't be relied on)


Doily, butterflies and this gorgeous flourish are all from Cheery Lynne.  The butterfly border is a round the page punch set from Martha Stewart 
Beautiful metal butterfly is from Wild Orchid Crafts and the satin ribbon is from my stash and I've added some Kaisercraft pearls.

Hope you're inspired to get On the Edge this week and don't forget to add those ribbons and bows!  Check out the amazing Friday Mashup DT inspiration.

I'm also adding this one to Make it Monday

Cheers,
