Hi Guys

Well this is my last effort for Embellished Idol. It hasnt quite turned out like I had envisaged, but I think thats because Ive lost my eye and ability for using and cordinating patterned papers, but such is a creative life LOL!!

Keep an eye on the Challenge Gallery at Idol, you must go chek out what the Fabulous Tatum and Skye have created for the finale toooooo! :) :) :).
