The brief summer of last week (oh sunshine and bright colors and swingy skirts, how I miss you!) has turned back into the April special--of rain, rain and more rain.
Which gets me in the mood of cold weather and comfort food, like freshly baked cookies. Hmmm. Just writing about this kind of makes me want cookies.
I created this layout for an Ella Publishing/ Write Click Scrapbook project. The topic was paper piecing, and I have not been a very inventive paper piecer up till now.
Hence: behold, the easier paper piecing ever.

To make the cookie in the bottom left corner, I simply hand-cut a circle from kraft cardstock and then layered punctuation marks from a pack of Thickers. And voila--we have a sweet little cookie, with very little muss or fuss! I don't normally create my own embellishments for layouts, but I love the homespun charm they bring.
And a little closeup on the title (I challenged myself to use those metal banners, and I'm so glad I did!)

And if you want more Ella Publishing fun, check out my post up on the Ella blog today! Here's a little sneaky peek at the layout that's up:

I have two questions for you today:

ReplyDelete2. Your layouts always make me happy. They seem REAL somehow...done with sincerity I suppose.
fabulous page!!
ReplyDeleteCan you send some cookies our way?? LOL
I love paper piercing especially when you join the holes with a white gel pen....looks like stiching, they call it faux stitching.
I love reading your blog because you are honest and you share your culture which fascinates me!
All cultures fascinate me!!
I'm not 100% sure what paper piecing is exactly so I don't know if I've done it but I think I might have.
ReplyDeleteWhat's my favourite thing to read on this blog? I love when you share your LOs, but truly I love everything you have to say! Just keep on doing what you're doing.
Ooh...yummy! Love how you did the title work! :)
ReplyDeleteI have tried paper piecing but only on cards (smaller area to cover....lol)
I'm no good at it either, but you did a great job!! And the pictures are awesome!
ReplyDeleteLove the layout Keshet! All of your layouts are so darling. And your newly organized scrap space made me drool! LOVE IT. I especially love how you made reminders for yourself. What a great idea! I forget about stuff I have all the time too. :)
ReplyDeleteOh - and my white kitchen is SO easy to keep clean! My cupboards have a shine to them and everything wipes off so easily! Love that. And I love your blog! Everything you post about.
