Hi!

I am a Christ follower blessed with a faith-filled husband, 2 incredible sons and so much more. God is so faithful! Being the only girl, I am always surrounded by hockey, baseball, football, muscle cars, loud noises, and all the wonderful things that make men who they are. But, I was born a girly-girl and like everything pink, frilly, and with jewelry and makeup added! Often I’ve felt as if my disjointed, but blessed lifestyle is overrun by testosterone! But, I have found that God is perfect and He knew the balance I needed ~ the perfect men in my pink-colored world: pigs in champagne!

CC Weekly Challenge #36: Fabric

This is my entry for the Circle's weekly challenge this week. Fabric had to be used somewhere in your project. I decided to do the layout of mom and me at my 50th birthday party. I cut 1/4" - 1/2" strips of quilting fabric in coordinating colors then began gluing and overlapping under the title until I achieved the look I was going for. I covered the fraying tops with buttons to finish it off. The background paper is from DCWV Mariposa stack (LOVE that stack) and the cartridges are listed below.
Fabric detail:
Cartridges:
     * Paper Lace: teal round background under the picture
     * Ornamental Iron: photo corners - I don't think they're really photo corners but that's what they are today!
     * Florals Embellished (could I love this cartridge more??? LOL): "Prettiest Mom Ever" title

    Thanks so much for the kind words about my circle submission and the stamped fabric. I cannot take any credit for that idea. I actually had found a video on youtube from splitcoaststampers (I think) that served as my source of inspiration.

    I love what you did with fabric on this page. How fun! What a great way to use remnants.
