now...back to why i originally started this post. ;)
Fabric + Notions are HOT right now in scrapping right?! Buttons, hand sewing, die cut fabric bits, machine stitching...you name it!!
and while I may be biased, THIS BOOK IS AWESOME.
I had a sneak inside when I picked one up to flip through at Scrappy Chic when I was there a week or two ago...and loved what I was seeing. So many different twists on things that you probably already have in your stash!! Here is one of the items I was challenged with...ELASTIC. Initially I was like, 'WHA??'. But it was fun to think of a way to use a few different kinds of elastic on this page...I like to look at these Special Issues like 'Challenge' books!!
I'm offering a FREE copy of this Special issue for my blog readers...please leave a comment (i'll leave it open until 10PM EST Thursday 11/10/11) and I'll choose a name at random on Friday. PLEASE MAKE SURE WHEN YOU COMMENT THAT I CAN EITHER CLICK BACK TO YOUR BLOG OR THAT YOU LEAVE AN EMAIL ADDRESS WHERE YOU CAN BE REACHED!!Have a happy day!!
Looks fun! These special issues are always my favorites!

ReplyDeleteI have to say that I'm completely loving the idea you've got going for your project 365. I've been toying with the idea of doing one and having no timeline on mine either so it'll be interesting to follow your journey with yours...
