THE BEGINNINGS OF A FABRIC JOURNAL

Something a bit different for me !!
This past weekend i have started making "pillows" towards making my first fabric journal

Got all inspired watching the video clips over at Teesha Moores blog on how she makes her fabric journals
http://teeshascircus.blogspot.com/

This is how my "pillows" look before quilting

And this is how they look after hand quilting

Once i put my first journal cover together - will share some photos of it

ROBYNS FETISH CHALLENGE #1

This challenge runs from 12:01am EST Saturday, April 24th through 12pm EST Thursday, April 29th (US time).

Your challenge for this week is to add some sparkle -  It could be glitter, crystal lacquer, gems, etc to your project.

You may use any RF digi images.


The winning creation will receive a digi image of their choosing.

Please leave a link to your challenge creation in the comments section on the Challenge blog - linking directly to your creation (not just your blog)


The image is coloured with copic markers and then matted onto brown cardstock, as is the saying stamp. Then I punched out lots of flowers in three different colours and sizes to co-ordinate with the flowers in the digi image. The sparkle has been added to the card by using kindy glitz glitter glue on the centres of the flowers in the digi; the striped background paper has glitter on it and the large flower is glittered and finished off with a large jewel brad.


The digi image is available over at the shop - its called Penelope Puppy.
