Stitching Cut File 6 of 36: Home

The 6th of the 36 Cut Files for Stitching is a Home!

Design Team Member Heidi Lewis created this colorful page. She says, "As I was flipping through my Splendid papers looking for inspiration, I thought that the quilt background Paper 6 had a nice, homey vibe. To keep the layout from becoming too busy I used tone-on-tone stitching with coordinating DMC threads. The bright colors of the layout inspired me to use a picture of our hotel in Hawaii. I cropped my photo to the same size as the center rectangle. I repeated the tone-on-tone technique for my embellishments using a variety of embellishments from the Splendid collection including Chipboard Stickers, Floral Die Cuts, Cardstock Stickers, 8-Page Sticker Book, and Epoxy Stickers. The process of picking the right color and shape of sticker for each section is a bit like putting together a puzzle. I hope this layout demonstrates that this cut file can be used for travel pictures, just as easily as home pictures!"

Here is another layout made with today's Home from the 36 Cut Files for Stitching by Guest Designer Mari Ponciano! She says, "Around the heart inside the Home I've done a whipped back stitch and also cut the middle of the heart off in order to attach the acrylic title. This detail is so cute, isn't it? I used lots of colorful die cuts and wooden embellishments to document a day with the whole family in granny's house. I hope you like it and also get inspired by it!”
