Hello again. I hope you are all having a great Memorial Day weekend.
Mine is very quiet and I love it! I have been crafting for 3 days! I am working on my parchment craft skills, lot of fun! Thank you SO MUCH Jackie for putting me in touch with the very talented Alison! I am learning a lot from her BEAUTIFUL work, and tips of info. I also came across a FAB site called Gemini Crafts run by a parchment crafter named Wendy Walters. It is filled with videos, tutorials, free patterns and so much more. So between these two super ladies I have a real goldmine at my fingertips!
OK, so on to my third attempt. There are so many mistakes, but as I said before, I am REALLY learning by doing! I won't bore you with all I did wrong, but let's just say there are a bunch of mess ups, LOL!
The perforated edges are still a thorn in my side, but I made a break through after I finished this project. I experimented with a bigger needle tool and the edges look so much better, more defined like a lacy edge. Hopefully on my next project you will see some improvement, lol!
