A few months ago, I got a wonderful Singer sewing machine for a really good price. Slowly but surely, I am getting the hang of using it on my layouts. My lines are not straight (yet) but I guess this will come with practice.
My sweet family, snuggling on the couch. I loved the soft colors of the photo, which I repeated in the layout. All papers and embellishments are from the Swirlydoos April kit. The buttons and the chain are from a previous kit. The frame around the journaling is from Conny at scrap me. You can find her shop HERE. The frame was just 90 cents, a real deal. I based this layout on the latest challenge of FROSTED DESIGNS.
The card is also made from items from the same kit. I based it on the sketch of CardPatterns.
Thanks for stopping by!
All the best,
Elisabeth

Hello Elisabth.
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning Layout, love the soft colours you have chosen to go with the pale coloured photo, perfect.
I love to use my sewing machine, but sometimes I forget about it and then think oh why did i not use it! Don't think lines have to be straight. I like to do a "wonky" line and then go over it with another wonky line, that looks good too.
Happy Sewing.

Ich hab die Nähmaschine auch versauern lassen, wie sie noch im Kasten gestanden ist, hab ich sehr selten mal am layout genäht, seitdem sie neben mir ist und ich sie zum. nur am tisch stellen muss und anstecken - funkts auch mit dem nähen und ich liebe einfach die details - es sieht einfach sooo cute aus ;-)
ReplyDeleteDein layout ist wie immer Spitzenklasse!!! Und der Rahmen ist mir gleich aufgefallen - also auch zufrieden mit der europäischen Alternative?

Your LO is just gorgeous!! I love the soft color palette with your photo and all the embellishments you used. What a beautiful card too. I have a sewing machine. A Janome brand. I have never used it on paper before. I will be whipping up some camera strap covers for my camera and a friend's though. :)
