Double D - Handles

 

Hello Dear Friends!

It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Double D Challenge Blog!
I'm happy to say I am hosting today's challenge and our theme is:
 
HANDLES
(things that have a handle)

 
and here's an inspiration board I've created to help get you started . . .

 

 Now when I think of HANDLES, I don't always think of 'one single handle' such as on the purse or tea pot above ... there are handles on all sorts of things ... hence my bicycle & wheelbarrow card.

I've had both of these dies for AGES and rarely use them so I thought they'd go well together today.  Originally I had a self made sentiment that read 'The Work is Done ... Now for Some Fun' but changed my mind and replaced it with this simple little stamp phrase.

The dies used are:

Impression Obsession 'Bike'

 Bike

 and

Impression Obsession 'Wheelbarrow'

 Wheelbarrow

The flowers are by Prisma and the butterflies are from an
old Martha Stewart '3 in 1 butterfly' punch.  

I hope you've found inspiration from today's creation!  
The prize that you'll be playing for this time around is:


 Remember, it's a random draw for the winner so it could be YOU!!

You'll want to be sure to pop over to the Double D Challenge Blog to see all the details and amazing samples offered up by our VERY TALENTED design team ladies!! 

Challenges to share in:

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hope to see you at Double D! 

  As always . . .
