Okay, ya'll know how I am always joking about drinking......and stating that I really don't drink..............well you be the judge I found this photo of me when I was about a year old, hope you enjoy!

Great photo and I LOVE your layout!

[ChristyB]

here is mine.
I recently bought Stitch Alchemy all about paper cloth--which was the jumping off point for this lo.

The background is green retro. Paper cloth on top, painted blue. painted another piece with various green inks and cut out shapes--all sewn on by machine. sand and inked edges of my pic, sewed on as well.
Stamped this is me onto piece of painted lutradur, cut out and glued some, sewed some on. marker for fake stitches.

pic is me in Maine

Wow, ladies, great job!!!
So nice to see a picture of you, Jen!! That would make a nice avatar photo for you. Love the layout, I like what you did to the big chipboard flower. I think I have one of those.

Paula, I'm glad I wasn't taking a drink when I peeked at that. Great layout! But, you know, I'm starting to realize that when you see a post from Paula, it is usually funny. Watch out next time, Christy!

Christy, that is really cool! Great job! Is paper cloth where you glue paper pieces to a thin fabric and then treat it like it was fabric? I think I saw it in ClothPaperScissors some years ago and threw my attempt away not long ago.

Ok, that was great to see these three here today, let's see some more layouts!

Jennifer, so nice to "see" you! That's a pretty LO and I really like how you did your name.

Paula, I almost fell off my chair -- it's too funny!

Christy, yours is so pretty and looks like it was a lot of work.

[Sharonv]

Love all the LO's for this challenge.
Gwen, why do parents do that to little babies hair!! Mine did it to me
Christy - awesome LO and I need to know more about paper fabric (mind you my DD took felt, cardboard and some chipboard flowers to school today) and I think that is what she plans to do, trace the chipboard flowers onto the cardboard and the felt and make flowers. Am I on the right track?
I wish I could find time to do some scrapping this month, but to date, I am not very time organised!!

Wonderful pages ladies!

Jennifer I will say the same as everyone else great to see you!

Paula that is just too funny!

Christy the colors and design are gorgeous, great photo of you to boot.

Marianne I love your new avatar!

Absolutely beautiful pages!
Paula -
Christy - love, love the technique! You have to bring this to Re(create) so I can see it in person.
And Jennifer - wow - what a pretty design!

When I saw that cute photo of Cheryl I remembered this photo of me with my little sister (the one with the curl). The papers are from Tiny Treasures. I wrote our names and date (yikes!) with a marker and used the Cuttlebug for "Sisters". There are four tiny buttons next to the date.
