- The Neverland kits are so delightful my only regret is not being able to churn out more layouts. I wish I can, but I take so long on each one of them that it is just not possible! :) This time, I finished my last layout just in time for photographing and uploading to the site before our deadline. Cutting it really close! LOL. Here we go . . .

But I Love You
Instead of using the mask for misting, I used it as a template handstitching. Then I roughly cut patterned paper to fill in some of the spaces inside, no exact measurement, eyeballing rocks! ~ Worked out great!
There is a story behind this layout, too personal for me to share here, It still hurts even after so many years. I'm sorry. Maybe one day I will be able to, just not now :)
I mixed First Kiss and White Mister Huey for the background, with a splash of Taxi, Shine and Honor Society. Loving the marbled effect.
Multi colored stitching - I love colors can you tell? :)
I love how the Amy T rub ons look like pencil drawing! blessing for those who can't draw e.g me! :)
So Glad you have him - a layout for Nidhi. She's very close to my father as you can see. I'm thankful for that, I'm glad she has him. I wasn't close to my dad when I was younger (because I was very naughty, what's new? haha!), so to witness their relationship is something special to me. :)
Make today awesome! :) I love that veneer card! I cut it apart and saved the smiley face for another layout. In its place, I added the 'hello love' flair, and stitched an arrow underneath the caption. It's doable, you can totally handstitch on veneer. This one is pulling double duty as I'm stitching that piece straight onto the background as an 'insurance' just in case my adhesive can't hold it down. :)

To The Moon & Back
7 hours? Maybe around there, I stopped keeping track after 5. LOL. It was a blissful 7 hours stitching on that piece of paper!
I printed the digital stamp (with super faint lines) as my guide, dropped some colors of Mister Hueys, then I pierced and stitch them all with two ply of DMC embroidery thread.
Almost exact lift, no? :) Shanna used the negatives of the silhouette cut, I used the positive! :)
Do you notice the background? I flipped over my starburst mask and stamp it onto this piece of white cardstock after I misted the background for my 'Memo' layout in Neverland gallery. Win-win! :)
My Kraft mat is getting a workout this month eh? Sprayed some mist and lay my cardstock (lightly) on top to get some colors. I had no control over the outcome, that's the exciting part! :D
The 'S' from Angry Birds is missing! Where is it??!! I must fix that!
FYI - my mama really does play Angry BIrds! LOL.
I also punched out some butterflies from the vellum speech bubble in Wendy, and added stitching as border for the photo and lines on top of the punched out circles.
had so much fun with the Mist Droppers - the splatters make me happy!

Oh My!
oh my goodness! *sigh* I love it when she asks to sleep with me. LOL. not everyday of course, but when she does.. my heart feels like it's about to burst! :D
This is another 'negative' misting work page. The yellow mist was left on the kraft mat after I did my 'Champion' layout' - so I took another piece of cardstock to soak it up. Voila, I thought it look like a butterfly, A HUGE ONE!
So I *roughly* measured the abstract butterfly, and cut a butterfly on my cameo and use that as my stitching guide. Love love love unplanned misting happiness like this!
