Technique Tuesday

Happy Tuesday! Hope you are all having a great week! Today's technique is one I love to do!

Create a fun border on your layouts using your sewing machine or hand stitching.

The possibilities are endless! On this layout, I simply stitched around the black cardstock over and over in a whimsical pattern to create this stitched border. It adds a fun texture and interest to the page.

If you do not have a sewing machine, you can get the same effect by using a hole piercer and hand stitch your thread. There are many patterns you can follow. It's a fun technique...give it a try!

Post a link in your comment on this post to a page where you've sewn a border (or e-mail it to us) and I'll give you 5 Friendz Pointz!!!

Thanks to all of you who submitted projects for the January Girlfriend Of The Month Contest.....WOW!!! Amazing projects!! We are having a tough time judging them!! We will be announcing the winner ASAP!!

Also...don't forget....there are lots of fun ways to earn Friendz Pointz this week: One day left to get your Wacky Word Scramble finished, two days left to finish your Challenge Thursday Sketch, and three days to get your TGIF red, white & black card finished!!! Get busy people!!! {For more info on each, see the fast links to the right of this post!}

Have a great one!!!
