My TES Funday Monday Post

I am back from vacation, & seems like am jumping back into life w/ both feet. My family & I went to the beach for a week. Had a fabulous time! Although hot, it was a lot of fun. The day we got home, I helped dh unload the car, unpack a few things, then 90 minutes later jumped in my car for a scrappy retreat. Yesterday I was totally playing catch up from the week. It was fun to be away, but I have to say, there is no place like home. ;o)

With that being said, here is the post for the Everyday Scrapper, yesterday:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Happy Monday!!!! It is a HOT one here, again, with the threat of some major thunder storms. I hope that everyone is staying cool & everyone is enjoying the summer!

Do you ever sew on your layouts, cards or projects. If you do, do you hand stitch or use a sewing machine. I love the look of sewing/stitching on layouts, & must admit, that in addition to sewing on my layouts, I “faux stitch” as well. I take my lil journaling pen, & draw my stitches!! Sometimes I just don’t have the time, or don’t feel like whipping out my sewing machine, or threading that needle.

Here are a few layouts that have hand stitching, & faux stitching. Can you tell the difference?

Could you tell? The 1st & 4th are “faux stitced”, the 2nd, 3rd, & 5th are hand stitched.

Do you do any kind of stitching on your layouts, cards, or projects? If so, please share with us in the forum what you have done. Just click here to take you to the post.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Red Carpet Studio ABC Random Blog Hop

Welcome to the ABC Ransom Blog Hop,  hosted by  Red Carpet Studio !   If you've come from Stephanie J's  blog, you're in the right place. The Red Carpet Studio designers thought it would be fun to host a mystery blog hop while showcasing projects that can be made using all those leftover letters in your stash - hence where the "ransom" comes in. Ransom notes play a huge role in mystery/suspense films, and are often created out of random letters cut from magazines, newspapers, etc. in order to disguise handwriting.  While we won't be doing any kidnapping or holding anybody ransom today - we do have some creative projects to share with you! For my project using leftover letters in my stash, I created...   I used letters from a leftover Thickers pack, & used them to frame around the girls picture. I just randomly placed them to form the frame.  I used Basic Grey paper, & embellishments, & some random buttons & o
