Studio Challenges: Dreaming With Eyes Wide Open

Hello there! Today is a new challenge at Studio Challenges. The challenge is 

"near and dear" to me as it's my idea: NOT TO BE SQUARED.

Basically, make your background anything but squares and rectangles. 

Reach for your cutting machines and mat files or reach for your 

punches. In this case, I reached for my triangle punch.

Thanks for stopping by today!!

Studio Challenges: Baby Mine

Hello there! Today I have for you the newest challenge at Studio Challenges.

It's a sketch based off of one of my previous layouts. Thanks Anna, for

finding my layouts inspirational.

Without further ado . . .

For the layout, I decided to go playful and use negative shapes. That means

that I made a pattern of triangles, circles, etc using SCAL4. Then cut those

patterns out onto my background paper. 

I then cut those same shapes using various patterned paper. Finally, I added 

all the stitching . . . which took about 40 minutes.

The rest came together quickly after that.

Thanks for stopping by today!!!

This photo is one of my favorites of my son at four months. Such a playful
and fun couple of months before teething and crawling began.
He was such a happy and chubby baby.

Love how all the stitching brings everything together. The buttons are
from the Japanese store, Daiso.

Give a Crafter a Cookie

Hello there! I'm here to present my latest DT project with "If You Give a Crafter a Cookie".

Here's the challenge:

Here's my TACKLE BOX!! I did make this for my dad who loves fishing

and is also very patriotic. Hint: I don't have "fishing paper" so I went 

with this theme instead.

The file is by Lori Whitlock, purchased from the Silhouette

Online store. The file came with a fish, fishing rod, and bobber but

those particular cuts were corrupt and would not transfer to the Silhouette.

First for me.

Thanks for stopping by today!!!!!
