Love - a new word for Bird is the Word

Happy Monday girls.

We had a great weekend.  Kids parties, mulching (blisters and sore muscles to prove it) and a lot of jobs done.

Bird is the Word is hosting a new challenge this fortnight, using the word LOVE.  Something we all feel so this should be an easy one for you.

I try to use the word a bit differently each fortnight to challenge myself and this is what I came up with for LOVE:
I tried "the old coffee marks trick" but being a bit of a scaredy cat, I made them very faint.  I will try again next time.  And can you see that mesh?  Remember latch hook?  Well that is what it is.  Who would have thought it was so versatile......lol.

And you still have just under 14 days to complete your DREAM page.  We would love to see your entries over at BITW.

Have a fab day.

    This is so cool Jas, lots of great idea's with the coffee cup and latch-hook mesh - what a great idea - and I remember doing latch-hook as a kid. A lovely patch with a great 'word' theme - I hope to play along - have a fantastic week!!

    Love this page Jas :-) yes, I SO remember latchhook LOL!! It looks great upcycled like that!!! How creative with the coffee cup rings too - I would be exactly the same, not much into the 'messy' style LOL but I think they look fantastic! Have a great week :-) hope the blisters and sore muscles disappear soon :-)xxx
