Ant's Monthly Challenge

My challenge to you this month is an "Ant's favourites challenge". That is a challenge that incorporates three of my favourite things on a LO.

Firstly - with my new found love of pins I would like to see the use of at least one pin somewhere on your LO. Your pin can be bought or homemade, it is completely up to you.

Secondly - my love of spots has been recently rekindled - I adore spots and dots. I would like to see at least one 'spotty' element on your page - it could be paper, ribbon, material etc. It doesn't need to be a main part of your page -the spots just have to be visible.

Finally, and I am sure this is no surprise to anyone who knows me, I want to see some stitching on your LO. I will leave the type of stiching up to you, it can be hand stiching, machine stitching, doodled stitching - whatever. I just want to see stitching somewhere.

Here is my sample LO:


Hope you have fun giving this challenge a go.

All entries must be loaded into the gallery by midnight WEDNESDAY AUGUST 31st!!

The winner of this challenge will win a prize from My 2 Angels here:

And as for polka dots... aah I love them too Count me in!

Love this challenge Ant, maybe I will find my mojo for this one

Do we have to do LOs or are cards acceptable for the monthly challenges?

Awesome example!! I love the colour combo you used. This is going to be a super fun LO to work on. I still have several pins in my stash and a few ideas.
