Fabulous Friday Challenge - Lacing!

Friday, May 11, 2012

Happy Friday everyone! Thank you to all of you wonderful, crafty people who joined us last weekend of our Second Annual National Scrapbook Day Blog Crop! We had so much fun with our challenges and games! We hope you enjoyed it too! Before I get to today's challenge, I would love to send out a Happy Birthday wish.....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LORI!!

Lori has been a designer with us for quite a while now and we are so glad to have her here!! Have an amazing day Lori!!

It's time to get to this week's challenge... and a challenge it is!! We are giving you a Lacing Challenge this week! We would like to see you lace something on your card, layout, or off the page project! And when we say lace, we are not talking about the trim... we want to see you lace something up! Our design team shows you there are many ways to do this! Take a look.....


Jenifer used embroidery floss to add lacing detail on her layout.
Brenda used two colors of twine and laced it through the holes in this eyelet border strip.


Ashley used the lacing to draw attention to the letters in her title.

Lori laced the bottom of her baseball mitt.


Erin laced a border around her layout.

Michelle 
Michelle laced the bird sewing card using black waxed linen lacing
(found in the leather isle at your local craft store).


The butterfly and flower pot sewing cards were laced using colored jute cording.
The boards are actually a recycled Sorry gameboard! Check out Michelle's blog for more details!


I am really excited to introduce this week's sponsor.....
