@gcdstudios + Fabrip journal spot idea

Thought I'd share this page with you today...where I used 'some-out-of-the-ordinary' journal spots. Most of the page was created using some fun products from GCD Studio's Homespun Chique collection (thanks guys!). For the Journal spots I used Anthology- Fabrips from Studio Calico.

This is a close-up of the journal spots.

How to make the journal spots:

Supplies: 

• Fabrips from Studio Calico
• 3", 2.5" & 1.5" scalloped circle punches from EK Success
• Zig photo marker
• Sewing machine

Instructions:

Punch a variety of scalloped circle sizes from the grid design Fabrip strip. Using a bright color thread, sew around the circles a couple of times for interest. Using a permenant marker journal on the spots & adhere to your page.

The great thing about this technique is that you can use any punch shapes you might have on hand for a interesting take on the faithful journal spot.

Well I need to go & get some pages finished. Hope you have found this helpful!

It's a Lily Bee kinda day!

*ehem* just got some really cool news! Which is just what I needed after a YUK! dentist appointment!


Together with Becky Williams, I won the GDT contest over at Lily Bee. I am so thrilled because I LOVE all of the Lily Bee lines & am really looking forward to working with their latest collections!






These were my entries :)

For these pages I cracked out my EK Success & Martha Stewart punches. They create interesting trims from the smallest of paper pieces, I'd be totally lost without them. The Tattered Angels mist color I used on both pages is Taffy & Graphite.

Thanks for making my day Kristen and thanks to my sweet blog readers for stopping by!
Hope your Tuesday is a good one for you!
