Hop on over to the Lets Get Shabby blog and check out all the details for challenge #34
It was amazing to see how four people in the DT created with 'diamonds' so differently.I'd love to see what you can come up with too; it's a great challenge so I hope you can play along.
My choice of diamonds was an easy choice for me; I love them, and have used them a lot in other projects, but the other thing that influenced me was the diamond pattern on the sleeve of Indi's jumper:......doesn't she look like a little Eskimo.I love the diamond pattern that the buttoning on the chair makes and the beautiful Kaisercraft paper I've used for the background.
