Paper Issues by the Numbers

It's Monday and there's a new issue at Paper Issues sponsored by Pinkfresh Studios. I created a colorful layout with Amy Tan's new line for American Crafts, Plus One. If you want something colorful, this is the line for you! Lots of color mixed with black and white.

The adorable little wood veneer hearts are from Pinkfresh Studio.

The journaling on this layout is hidden behind the photos.

I did lots of machine stitching along with some hand-stitching on this project.

Here's the entire project.

Make sure you link your projects using lots of color and anything that's "by the numbers" to the current issue (find it HERE) for your chance to win some goodies from Pinkfresh Studios.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great Monday!

American Crafts Valentines Blog Hop

Happy Valentines Day!

Welcome to my blog for the American Crafts Blog Hop! I'm so excited to share a project about LOVE with you today. It's about love for shoes! I used the Dear Lizzy Polka Dot Party collection for most of this project.

I've been anxious to try die-cutting some of the transparencies with my Silhouette. It worked amazingly well! The little hearts are adorable. I hand stitched with red thread around them to make them stand out against the white background.

And here's the final project! I simply adore how it turned out! Now, even though my little lady's shoes are gone we'll have the memory documented in her scrapbook.

Now you're off to the amazing Ashley Horton's blog. I know she'll have something incredible to share with you today! Thanks for stopping by! Please click the blue button to the right that says "join this site" so you won't miss any blog posts!
