ZIG ZAG SEWING

TO ADD AN EXTRA ELEMENT TO YOUR CARDS OR LAYOUTS, TRY USING YOUR SEWING MACHINE TO ZIG ZAG STITCH IN SOME AREAS.

SIMPLY STITCH THE PAPER BEFORE YOU ADHERE IT TO THE PAGE.

THIS TECHNIQUE IS SURE TO SPICE UP YOUR CREATIONS.

I USED THIS TECHNIQUE ON THE PAGES OF THIS PAPER BAG ALBUM. I JUST SEWED THE PAPERS BEFORE PLACING THEM IN THE ALBUM AND THEN ADDED EMBELLISHMENTS.
IT IS REALLY A VERY EASY TECHNIQUE AND IT ADDS TEXTURE TO THE PAGES.

FRIENDS
This layout was made using Fancy Pants paper.
We used our Stardream Glimmer Paper to matte the photo and make the title and flowers. The shimmer of the paper compliments the layout perfectly.
We used Dew Drops for the inside of the flowers. We sell a large variety of colors of Dew Drops to match any color you are using on your layout.
Another quick and easy layout.
