One of the fun things
we did this weekend at the SIS event was to scraplift each other. I don't know if anyone else got in on the action, but the girls at my table thought it would be fun! Our creations are posted over at Scrapjacked. Here are my three layouts that I created last weekend which ended up involved in the jackathon.
To create this page, I gessoed over vintage sewing patterns and trimmed out squares to reveal journaling on the white cardstock underneath it. I embellished the page with Sassafras die cuts and buttons as well and some stitching and Basic Grey letters.
I used gessoe a bit in this page too. The pattern in the paper was too busy to serve as a backdrop to my title.
Beautiful layouts! I love that you still ask for eyes!!
Awesome girl!! And I love the layouts below, too! :D
Love the collaged sewing pattern page of “Aunt Maggie”…how do you “sew” at an event or crop? Do you bring a machine with you…do you use a regular sized one or one of the mini “paper” machines…I take enough to crop…I can’t imagine sewing as well…I’m curios? Thanks, Roberta
I love the eyes! Funny stuff. :)
don’t hate me for asking…but gesso…would watered down white paint not do the same thing? I WANT some gesso and it looks totally cool but I am not understanding all it’s purposes I guess…? Is it just me?! Very possible :)Ha!
i don’t “get” gesso either… i love what you do with it, and you’re pages are always amazing… but i don’t know… i just don’t understand it. anyway, loooove your pages! i try to scraplift you all the time, but it doesn’t turn out as awesome as your pages originally are.

These pages are fantastic. Love the colors with shots of black.
Just finished up a scrapbook page, and lifted the idea to gesso over a pattern that was a little too bright. It came out beautifully! Thanks for the inspiration. :)
