Rainy Days

This layout was inspired by the lyrics challenge at Soul Scrappers:


Materials
Kaisercraft Prairie Lane - Woodshire patterned paper
Kaisercraft Pickled Pear - Thyme patterned paper
Kaisercraft The Looking Glass - Queen of Hearts diecut card
Otto washi tape
Tailored Foil Alphabet stickers

The title is taken from the lyrics of Sunny (Reed Deming):  Rainy days are passing by.

Another rainy-day Babinda layout:


Materials
Kaisercraft Prairie Lane - Woodshire patterned paper
Kaisercraft Marigold - Straw patterned paper
Kaisercraft Jade's Garden - Jasmyn patterned paper
Kaisercraft Enchanted - Rapture patterned paper
Bo Bunny Take a Hike buttons
DMC embroidery thread
Black satin ribbon

My layout was inspired by these challenges:

* Stuck?! Sketches ~ 15th June sketch

* Mystical Scrapbooks ~ Technique - Stitching
A lot of my layouts feature machine stitching, but I am away from home for a few weeks with limited scrapping supplies (and no sewing machine).  So for this layout I hand-stitched the buttons onto the page, and I added some cross-stitching to secure the photograph.

Thank you for visiting my blog!
