It's a Gorgeous 1st Day of Spring!!

It's the first day of Spring and I'm happy!! I love that the weather is warming up and today is an absolutely gorgeous day.  We all know that the beginning of the month means new challenges and today I have the new challenge for Kraft It Up.
 

CHALLENGE: This month you need to create a layout using fabric and stitching.  This can be machine or hand stitching and your fabric can be anything from a lollipop flower, fabric ribbons, fabric strips or using fabric instead of paper it is totally up to you, please remember to use Kraft cardstock or patterned paper as your base. Check out the site for inspiration from our amazingly talented Design Team... can't wait to see everyone's spin on this challenge!!

Together - You and Me

Not sure if I like how this came out, but you all know how it is, sometimes it just doesn't come together quite how you want it.

I decided to used some Basic Grey patterned Kraft for my background and framed it with a pretty floral punched border and some machine stitching.  I used a few different fabric details on my LO... the heart is a piece of patchwork fabric from my stash which I bordered with some gorgeous lace.  I used some hessian, recycled doilies and some binding ribbon as well.  The word chippie is from Scrapmatts and the flourish chippie is from Dusty Attic.  I inked them to go with my colour combo and added a few sweet resin flowers and some Kaiser pearls to give the flourishes a more feminine look.  A few Prima flowers and a pretty heart charm from my2angels for some finishing touches.
