Project Highlighted:  |
|
This page layout was made by Jenette Carson, using the Fruitini File by designer, Michelle Hessler. This page was created for a swap Jenette was in for a Recipe Book. She added her own cut lettering to the page, and some brads. Jenette's favorite part of the Fruitini diecut it the sliced lemon on the rim of the glass. Using vellum to achieve a more realistic look, the whole layout turned out great!
