...and here's outr next great layout from ?

Cathy Cafun - Capturing the Moment


Shazza,
Thought I would get in early this month. Here is my entry for Sherlock Holmes poster. Used teal paint for the background, then embossed a soft drink can and cut out & inked the pieces for my metal embellishments and used the block letters with a rubon title. Finished off with a bit of machine stitching and stamping for the border. Had fun with the paint on this one. TFL
Cheers Cathy Cafun

Hey Cathy! A great entry this month!! I love the use of teal paint espacially against the light brown background. Love the 'embossing a soft drink can' technique.....you may start a trend :) The drink can metal embellishments have turned out awesome....love your idea!! The one piece of red cardstock looks fab! All in all, a great page that has come together well and looks terrific! - Shazza
