My second layout of the month is a page I made for my husband - I created a collage in Picasa of all my favourite photos of him and then enclosed them in a heart shaped border made of lots of parcels cut from one of the Jillibean Soup papers. I mounted some of them on foam pads to give the border a 3D effect.
I also used my Sew Easy tool to punch a border of holes that I threaded with embroidery floss. The Sew Easy tool is really handy if you like hand stitching on your layout - there are lots of different heads including scallop and criss-cross that you can attach to the same tool for different results. I hand drew my title using pencil and then punched and sewed this with floss too.

Great LO! Love it. What a fantastic idea. I was looking at buying the sowing tip but I read so many bad reviews on scrapbook.com that I did not order it. Are you happy with it? It said it did not leave a dent on cardstock paper. Thanks for your reply!

I am happy with mine - it helps if you have the mat they make to put underneath your layout and have a bit of practice first to get the pressure right - too hard and you might get a bit of a dent, but I didn't get anything when I lessened the pressure. It goes through bazzill a treat :) hope that helps
