It's Basic - It's All About Family - lo


This week's challenge at Frosted Designs is a word challenge - use the word "Family" anywhere on  your creation, and this is my lo for this challenge. Sorry for the bad photo, I didn't have the right light condition to take it.

I used the sketch from Scrapbook Challenges, sketch #232:




I did a lot of distressing and hand stitching on this lo. All stitching, excetp for the frame around the dark cs, is hand stitching.
The big tag, the matting of the photo, is hand cut by a template. And since there are lots of tags here, it also fits the current challenge at Simple Doodles, which is Tag it!.
The sentiment is K&Co. die cut, attached to a chipboard, and I distressed the edges.

Here's a close-up on on the tags:



And on masking for the word "Basic":



And a close-up on the crochet flowers. I just love those buttons. I need to buy some more of them, in more colors.



I'm entering this lo also for these challenges: simonsays stamp and show (the old/vintage look); sentimental sundays (my song inspiration was "We Are Family" by the Sister Sledge); stuckonusketches (the hand cut tgas by a template); if the shoe fits; city crafter; ppaprairie fairy; scrap-creations; creative card crew; crafty sentiments; craft your days away (the photo itself was cut with border punch); aly's; the crafty padI did it creations; gingerloft; catered crop (I used: TH distress inks, DCWV & Canson cs, buttons, sewing); osaat; day 295 at 365 cards (the colors)
Thank you for visiting my blog!

דף אלבום שהכנתי לאתגר השבועי ב- Frosted Designs, והשבוע זהו אתגר  מילה - "משפחה".  יש הרבה דיסטרסינג ותפירה ביד בדף, עם פרחי קרושה שסרגתי. אני מאד אוהבת את הכפתורים שעל פרחי הקרושה,  ואני צריכה לקנות עוד כמה מהם, בצבעים נוספים.

תודה על תשומת הלב!
