How many ways can you say 'LOVE'?

I love the Word Sculpt Wizard in the Premier+2 software.  Here is a quick video to demonstrate how it works.


Last year, I decided to make a table topper for my kitchen table.  I was looking for ideas and came across this picture for my inspiration.


Here is the middle square of the topper and I thought it was perfect match for my idea.

Rather than the 4 patch, I decided to create my design using the word 'Love" in different languages.  All I did was google that information and I was able to create my list of words to type into the box.  I selected the 200 x 200 mm quilt hoop (my fav) and the software sized it perfectly for me.


I stitched it out on my fabric and then cut it down into the correct size for the center block.



The biggest problem was to find the directions for the table topper.  That was not so easy! It is from Anka Treasures "On the Run" book which is out of print. 
Here is the link if you want to order a pdf file of the book.  The seasonal table toppers are very inspiring!


Can you say "Love" in another language?  Post it in the comments section below.

Lake Life is a Winner!

  Sadly, the last Close to My Heart paper pack is done and ready for class on Saturday, July 20th.  Gather your vacation photos as this paper pack is perfect for any scenes with water. Lake Life #1 layout is all about a trip last fall to Mount Dora.  My son participated in a bike race, and they did some 'sightseeing' on the second day.  My grandson Luke's strange photos are from the 'vblog' post he was making.  Not sure if he ever posted it, though. Lake Life layout #2 features my niece and her family on an annual trip to Lake Chautauqua.   Even though it was an overcast day, it sure looked like Emmy had fun! Any day is a good day for eating pizza! Lake Life #3  is the last layout of the paper pack and are a few more pictures of my son's trip to Mount Dora.  They looked like they had a exciting weekend! The layouts are designed by Close to My Heart and include the directions to complete them.  No extra supplies or inks needed just the ...

Take to the Sky is a winner!

This paper pack was the featured one for my first scrapbooking get together in June.  Covid put an end to the monthly gathering, and we are so excited to be together again. This paper pack has a vintage feel with the airplanes, map and clouds design.  but the other side of the paper has a masculine design and colors great for both cards and layouts. The coordinating stamps and dies include phrases which are prefect for birthdays, Father's Day and traveling. The Industrial Trinkets add just the right accent to both layouts and cards My first share today is this layout I made which features the clouds, airplanes, tags and some twine. There are so many ways to use this design. How would you use it?

I began with inspiration from an idea in a Close to My Heart catalog and personalized it. I varied the sizes of the strips, such as 1 1/2" x 10" or 2" x 10", among others. I created a random pattern and then pops of color with 1/2" and 1/4" ...
