Tip of the Week

I just got a great tip in from Jackie that I wanted to share with everyone:

"If you don't have a sewing maching, cut a strip of cardstock or chipboard with pinking shears or some other zigzag scissors, then use the strip as a template to draw the "stitches" on your layout."

You just earned a ballot for this months Blog Prize Draw Jackie.

If you have any tips or techniques you would like to share please email them to thynner5@yahoo.ca amd put "Scrapdango Blog Tip" in the subject line. You will earn a ballot for every tip you send in!

Challenge # 19

This challenge is all about sewing. You can whip out your sewing machine, poke some holes and handstitch or poke some holes and connect the dots!! You can either make a layout or you can make a card.
Here is my layout using the Sugar Kit for last month. I loved the kit so much.


I used a stitch template and poked holes around the patterned paper circle and hand stitched in yellow to coordinate. It can take a little bit of time but the effect is worth it!
Please email me your creation at thynner5@yahoo.ca to earn a ballot for the lovely Chatterbox set stamp!!

Challenge #18

I have another challenge for you Dango girls. Your challenge today is a shape challenge. I would like to see my favorite shape somewhere on your creation--------- circles!!

But... I would like to see a minimum of three circles and I would like them to be diferent. Here is a layout I did of my sweet, adorable, nephew Cameron. I used a circle for my journal block, a large patterned paper circle and threw in some buttons as well.

I would love to see what you create. Please email your creations to thynner5@yahoo.ca to earn a ballot for this months blog prize. I have a wonderful brand new set of Chatterbox Happy stamps to give away this time.
