A STITCH IN TIME ....

This weeks challenge over at Papertake Weekly Challenge is to use STITCHING on a project. The stitching can be real or faux. Well, since I am not a big fan of anything that requires a needle, there was definitely not going to be any real machine stitching on my project. Sorry Libby and Carol, please don't take any offence, I do love quilting though, and as you know I am a big admirer of your quilt creations. Quilting may in future get a go by yours truly. Its just as well that hubby was in the army and knows how to sew a shirt button. Terrible wife I am ...

I recently did a scrapbooking layout of Alisha's 4th Birthday earlier this year and had this photo left. I just had to use this photo as it has this special ambiance about it. So here is my 'faux stitching' project.
Please pop in at Papertake Weekly Challenge and have a peep at all the wonderful creations by the Design Team this week ... it just might inspire you to take up a challenge some time in the near future.

    this is very nice, desire! i love the 'stiching' all over, especially on the flowers.

    soon you will be able to lighten the photo, and boost the colors, and change it to b&w, and play...

    Hi Desire. Jy weet ons gaan ook hier in Abu Dhabi met scrapbooking begin. Ek sien so uit daarna en dink ek het al klaar geleer deur net op jou blog te kuier. Ek het gisteraand vir my 'n beginnerspak gekoop. Sandra,... en ons ander :-) kannie wag vir die mooi goed wat sy van daar af gaan saambring nie.
