Well a Happy New year to you all, I feel it's going to be a good one. An appolagy for posting a day late but yesterday seemed to run away with me after a late night and a very long lay in....................but I'm sure I wasn't the only one. My first project of the year. The layout was created by using templates. I found them in my cupboard just before christmas-it still amazes me how I collect crafting accessories and seem to lose them in a cupboard and forget I even have them! The title was stitched using silver thread after the paper was pierced using a stitching alphabet template. I also used a doodling template for the scrolls and then added some bling for dimension. And finally the year was stamped on with some number stamps from sugar and spice called Happy Birthday With a Cherry on the Top . Again a very happy new year to you all and Happy Crafting P x
