Here's part II of the May kit by Ruey. This one I followed to the letter becuse the title suited my photo perfectly. The only thing I didn't follow exactly was the cutting up of the paper but that was really my fault cos I sliced the pink paper instead of tearing. So then I had to tear a little bit from each half to get the tearing effect which meant my paper ended up much shorter. So you can see a little bit of the blue paper at the top and bottom of the LO. Oops! So then all this affected the number of shapes I could cut out of the leftover paper (as there wasn't much paper left over). To add to that, whilst cutting the big owl from the paper, I accidentally cut off one of its ears...didn't even realize it had ears. So oops and double oops! Hee...in fact, I made the same mistake with the owl you see popped at the top of the LO but I managed to glue the ear bit back on this one. :-)
All Materials from Ruey's May Kit.
I do not own a 7/8" circle puncher so I had to make do with my 5/8" one instead. I inked the edges of the punched out circles, stuck the alphabet stickers on them, cut off the excess corners of the stickers and then re-inked the edges. This didn't turn out too bad. I'm simply loving my kit LOs cos it brings such a fresh look for my album and is so out of the box for me.
