Hello!
Today I wanted to share the fun bookmark I made for my Grandma's birthday. She loves to sew and read so I decided to make her a sewing themed little gift to go with some of her favorite authored books.
First off I used some beautiful dies from La-La Land Crafts. The February Club Kit was a sewing theme. So many gorgeous dies and other lovely pretty things came with the kit. I haven't had a chance to play with everything except the dies and one of the sentiment stamps, but I'll make some time to put all the projects together soon. Below is a close up on the detailed filigree scissors, and the measuring tape ribbon I used.
I also used a stitched border die from MFT to keep the theme going all the way through. I found a baby button brad and it worked perfectly on the scissors. I bet your wondering if the scissors close, well take a look...
They do! hahaha! Well I guess as long and you don't tighten the brad too much or glue it down you should be able to open and close them. So cute! You also receive a buttons border die and some separate buttons. As you can see I used them on the side of the bookmark and on the washi cut banner. That sentiment also comes with the kit. I sew love this set (pun intended hahaha).
Grandmother really liked it and she said she'll use it as she's reading all the books we sent to her. I am so happy!! If you're interested in how the kit club works click HERE. There are so many options to choose from and you don't have to wait to get them in a year! So handy and so darn cute!! Okie dokes, this is as good a time as any to say... Have a great day and thanks for stopping by. I'll have an Aloha Friday challenge post tomorrow, hope you'll stop by to see what it is and then join our challenge. Ta-ta for now!!
