April Monthly Challenge

Hi and welcome to this months challenge - Circles and stitching.
I want you to create something a bit different with your circles. Here are some ideas:
- use your circle template to create a unique or unusual embellishment
- use the negative from cutting out a circle as a mask or stencil
- stitch on your circles or use your template as a guideline to stitch circles straight onto your LO.
These are just some ideas and I happen to have used them all on my LO, I hadn't intended to but it just came out that way LOL. So you are welcome to use all or some of those ideas or something different again.

 

For my LO I cut some circles from cardstock with the Fiskars Ultra Shape Express and then used the negatives as a stencil to make the background using Glimmer Mist. Then I 'messy' machine stitched over the circles (on purpose of course :)). The circle embellishments are made up of different sized circles cut with the Shape Express and layered - a popular technique at the moment.

 

 

You have until 30th April to email to fiskarscraft@yahoo.com.au

I'd love to see your ideas using circles and circle templates on your LO's and as a bonus add some machine or hand stitching.

Oh please tell me your secret for stamping the Fiskars "threading water". I love it but can't seem to line up like you can!!! LOL
