Ruffles

Old pictures (1992!) + Jenni Bowlin October kit + some scissors work + machine stitched paper ruffle = new layout


The journaling is in Hebrew, it just felt right because the pictures were taken in Israel. Huge rub-on sheet serves as a photo mat.


The ruffle was inspired by the latest Moxie Fab World Challenge Go there and check all the fabulous ruffles inspired projects. Yummy!

For my paper ruffle I used one of the decorative stitches on my sewing machine to stitch in the middle of the ruffle

And here is something completely different. A door sign to let my girls know that Eli is sleeping and they need to be quite or else...

I altered a piece of cardboard from my scrap bin. I drew the clouds and cut them out. I added Cloud 9 felt flowers and some Zva Creative pearls (they are awesome!) The top edge of the sign is covered by a paper ruffle stitched in place.The chipboard letter are from Target dollar spot. They were pink with white polka dots. I removed the pink paper, inked them with 2 tones of blue ink and covered with gold glimmer mist. The sleeping chicks are done with Fiskars squeeze punch.
