My Memories Freebie

My Memories has sent a freebie link for me to share with you! Check out the 'My Memories' page for the link, and to see what I've done with the freebie. The freebie files are .png and .jpg and will work with any graphics software, not just My Memories software. In order to (hopefully) give you a better idea of the versatility of the freebie pack, I have refrained from using any other packs with it.

If you wish to purchase My Memories software, use the following code to save $10 at checkout! Here's the code: STMMMS47620

Scrappin' Saturday XVIII

Welcome to Scrappin' Saturday - come take a peek into the pages of my scrapbooks. This page is devoted to the two beach bag totes that I've made. One for myself, and one for my Grandma.

The Details

Paper: The paper is a 12x12 sheet of Decorative Scrapbook Paper.  
Photos: The photos were cropped square and the corners rounded with a punch.  
Journaling: The journaling was written by hand and consists of the pattern title and some notes about making the pattern.
Project Link: I blogged about these here. The project is 'Girlfriend's Beach Tote' from Mary Mulari's Travel with Style book.

Lady of the Thread Cross Stitch

Lady of the Thread is overdue for an update. I haven't taken a picture of her in nearly a year! This morning I finally finished the large green part of her skirt. It doesn't look very big in the photo, but when you're doing it one stitch at a time, it's gigantic!

The Pattern: "Lady of the Thread" by Lavender and Lace.
The Fabric: 28 ct black linen from my LNS
The Thread: DMC Floss
