A couple of new projects completed in the last few days. This is a vintage postcard for a swap on MixedMediaATCs.
The background is strips of red ribbon and I used some of the stitches on my sewing machine for the vertical lines. I printed the photo - an old Christmas postcard free on the net - on computer cotton then applied the lace to the back before sewing it on. I went for glittery gold ribbon as a finishing touch around the edges.
Also did a couple of layouts at my crop last Saturday. This is a monthly crop in Sheffield - love going and was a founder member along with my younger daughter over 5 years ago. Now my elder daughter comes with me, being a recent convert to scrapping. The layouts use the free papers from this months' Scrapbook Magazine.
This photo was taken in the 70s - I guess the girls would be around 9/10. I hasten to add that neither they, or the Smurfs, actually drank the alcohol, lol.
This layout features the twig wreath I made for the UKS cybercrop and is scraplifted from the Scrapbook magazine.
It's not my usual style - I normally scrap vintage style. Using such bright and cute papers really took me out of my comfort zone. I like this style though, may do more in the future.
