Birthday Socks Layout

This was a fun layout to make. I just received a new kit and I had this picture of the crazy coloured socks my four-year-old gave me for my birthday. She said I always have holes in my socks so I needed new ones! New kit + new socks = perfect combination for a layout.



I started with the sketch from Scrap Much? for their May challenge.

 

I used the My Mind's Eye: My Girl kit. I found a piece of red felt for the heart in the craft box. I also used some yellow/white string for the stitching and stars. I got the star idea from ARTastic. The smaller the star, the better it worked. Although, I couldn't enter their challenge because I had too many I wanted to do!
 
So I entered the stitching challenge at Scrap It Girl. I chose this sketch so I could try out some stitching. I'm still not brave enough to try a sewing machine on my papers. I hand stitched the circle and heart and then drew stitching around the letters.
 
I also entered the string art challenge at Frosted Designs since I bought the string from their site.
 
Thanks for stopping by!
