Some more scrapbooking for you today. I used some photos I'd taken at the Novita Christmas Party. Novita is a wonderful charity that supports a lot of South Australian children who have disabilities. The kids had a wonderful time doing a whole range of activities but I think their favourite was the pony rides.
I went a bit all out with the stitching on this layout! I was trying to use up the last of my scraps of Jolly Holiday DSP so I punched a whole lot of circles. I traced a circle template on the 12x12 cardstock several times. Each time I moved it slightly to get a rougher look to the layout. I then adhered the circle punchies around the circle and used my sewing machine to stitch another large circle in a straight stitch. I also used a zig zag stitch to stitch down the circles behind the main photo and also some stitching in each corner.
I also used my colour spritzer to spritz the cardstock before I started adhering things to the page. In a few places I spritzed really close to the page to give a different, rougher effect. You can see this under the letter 'd' in the title.
