Summer Picking

Here is another creations using the Cosmo Cricket Garden Variety kit. I don't sew on a sewing maching but really wanted some stitching on this layout. So I used the green floss that came in the kit and did some hand stitching around the picture in the lower left corner. I cut this out of the elements sheet since it went perfectly with the "picking" theme. Here is a close up of the hand stitching.

On the edges of the pattern paper I did a little sanding action to give the paper a different look. I also inked the edges of the cardstock and the pattern paper.

Here is the complete layout.....

Can't wait to see what you come up with using this kit. Don't forget to grab some of the FABULOUS add on's to go with it :) Make sure you stop over and show us your creations in the forum.

Thanks for looking.....~Stacy~
