June Challenge

Three is the Magic number by Kathy


I completed this layout of my 3 adorable grandchildren for the Stitch Challenge.


I had actually sewed a circle on a piece of white cardstock a long time ago just for the fun of it - and set it aside. When I saw this layout at Two Peas by mafswife I had to lift it. Fortunately I remembered this stitching. So, I trimmed around the stitching and placed it on the layout - this was much easier then it would have been to actually stitch on the page after everything was in place.

I also also used a Frugal Friday Tip to cut letters out of fun foam instead of purchasing the foam letters. I also completed another layout with stitching and posted it on My Blog

  8. an awesome layout! love the stitched circle! and i like that it is separate. i'm not good enough on my sewing machine to trust a straight to the layout sewing job to turn out well. (might need to scrap-lift this too!)
