Handwriting and Stitching

Have you seen October's pieces yet?

Stitching doesn't have to mean a sewing machine. Handstitching is fun, or your could even doodle faux stitches! And don't be scared to use your own handwriting, one day you will be glad you did!

Fran has created a gorgeous layout as usual:

And here's a cute card she made using the 8x8 Fancy Pants pad from Scrap Therapy. A bargain at 20% off!

If you want to try your hand at using the pieces on a card just for fun, please send it through and I will share it here.

Fancy Pants

We all played with Fancy Pants this month, currently 20% off at Scrap Therapy!

OMG It's October!!!

Happy Birthday to my DH today :)

But you don't care about that! You want to see October's new pieces!!! Right!?

oooooh, lots going on here!!

This month we are sewing AND writing! Don't be scared!

Let's start with CT member Suzi's sample layout. Suzi was working with a pack of fun Fancy Pants goodies thanks to Scrap Therapy - 20% off all Fancy Pants! I love these Kraft Kuts - so fun!

Suzi has created a double page layout, using all of October's puzzle pieces on both sides!

Is she clever or what!?

PLUS in honour of World Cardmaking Day this month, our team has also been using the puzzle pieces to create cards! If anyone wants to have a go at this, send through your cards as well and I will share them all here just for fun!

Check out what Suzi did:

We have used papers from these Fancy Pants 8x8 pads from Scrap Therapy. I love these things! The same design as the full size papers, but in a smaller print - perfect for cards! And a bargain too! 32 sheets for under $10!!
