It's August 1st and time to present the August Challenge at Creative Embellishments. I cannot believe I am actually saying "August" already but time doesn't stop for the daydreamer like me.

The gears were topped with Graphic 45 stickers from Graphic45 - Fairie Dust Collection 12x12 as buttons. These are set over the Creative Embellishments - Lace Border 1 - painted with Prima Finnabair - Art Alchemy - Green Gold paint. I also added green gems for the twist - to add a shiny element to the project.
