Sew Clever Layout

Hi everyone.  I'm back again today to share with you another layout using the gorgeous new Sew Jo papers and a few other goodies that were showcased at CHA.

I started by spraying and inking my base cardstock and then cut my papers.  These papers were perfect for the pics I had, as my little girl had just started to learn to sew but a lot of the papers also have great patterns for all kinds of scrapping and can be used for masculine pages too.

I embossed a piece of co-ordinations cardstock with the new Weaved embossing folder and sanded it back to show the kraft colour underneath.  It co-ordinated perfectly with these papers.

Behind my photo I have tucked the Ornamental Lace Die Lotus Filet.  I cut this in half so that it showed at the top and bottom of my photo.

Keeping my embellishments to a minimum, I cut out a sewing machine from the papers with my Circle and Scallop Circle nesting dies and then added a button.

Here's a closer look at the embellishments

The Classic Chevron Die also matched and kind of reminded me of ric rac so it tied in with my sewing theme.

Thanks for stopping by.

Until next time
