Documented Life Project

Here is Week 21 of my Documented Life Project.
I am not sure what possessed me to use orange and green as my main colors.... 
It is just something different.
Every page can't be blue and green I guess!
The challenge was to use embroidery floss.
I have lots of that!
My sunshine is the RubberMoon Mail Club stamp from April.
She is all neon and happy!

The flower is a stencil from the June StencilGirl StencilClub offering.
As is the stitch line dividers and the "loop-de-loos".

In my ephemera collection I found an old handwritten recipe from my grandma.
It was written on the back of her bank deposit slip.
I copied the side with her name to include on these pages.
I did it on a regular old copy machine with regular old paper.
And since the challenge was embroidery floss,
I found some great polky dot fabric in my stash.
I did simple stitches then glued it down with mod podge.
I guess I was feeling nostalgic thinking about my grandma...
I wrote in treasure every moment as a last thought.

Week 21...Over and Out.


Happy Arting.
