Hello everyone! Marinette M'Boussi here! I am excited to share a new project using one of Paige's cut files called Be You paired with the awesome Wonders collection.
I started by cutting the Be You cut file from white cardstock with my Silhouette Cameo. Before taking it out of the cutting mat, I scraped modeling paste on it through Paige’s Polka Dots Stencil. After that I put the cut file on another piece of white cardstock with strong adhesive. I then embroided the contour of the text with white thread and a chain link stitch. I used all 6 strands of floss to get maximum thickness and texture. It took me a few hours. I always watch a film or TV show during the process, it helps to keep myself entertained.
Time for embellishing! I cut diamonds from Paper 11 and circles from Paper 6 and placed them randomly around the page. I attached the diamonds and circles with tacky glue and embellished some of them with French knots. I backed my photo with 2 papers from the 6x8 Paper Pad. I really love this paper pad because some of the papers have gold foil. As a final touch I added drops of gold paint to get a shiny effect and match the gold foil.
Thank you for stopping by, I hope this will inspire you to add some stitching on your next creation!
