I've asked some of our previous GDTs to help out with the Advent Calendar, and today I'm thrilled to be able to present a project made by one of our our August GDTs, Kirsty-Anne "Kitty" Davies.
Today's Candy are these beautiful Vintage Scallop Lace Trims from Maya Road.
The winner will receive 1 yard of the white trim, and 1 yard of the mauve coloured one.
This is a favourite product of both the DT and Customers alike.
The trim is so soft and fluffy: I recall a customer saying "it's like Babyskin"!!!
...and as you can see, the creative Kirsty-Anne has used both colours of the trim in her project:
Snowfall, Silent Night, Pion Design
Rolled Paper Roses, Kort og Godt
Vintage Pearl Pins, Maya Road
Pearls, Melissa Frances
Snowflake Charm, Bildmalarna
Crystal Glamour Dust, DecoArt
Distress Ink Pads, Ranger
Gesso, Ranger

Is Kirsty-Anne an amazing paper artist or what?!!!
If you're not familiar with her work, I strongly recommend you pop over to her blog; I promise you'll find it's time well worth spent!!!
