KICKS... ( ScrapFit Challenge )

I had everything set out for this LO before I realized it fit perfectly

with the ScrapFit Warm-Up #31 that is to use a patterned paper

for the background.  I had actually planned to use the cream text

paper for the entire LO and then the peachy hexagon as just an

accent.  I changed it around to challenge myself a little bit.  

Here is the link to their blog post:

I decided to give myself another little challenge so other than those two papers, 

I made myself use everything that was either on my desk or within arms reach.

My goal was to use up all the scraps and previous pieces I cut with my Silhouette

which are all crammed into a little bowl.  The paper I used for the photo mat was

a really old piece of paper that I had used to make some little cards for

my son's class...they were the sticks for a popsicle and I mis-measured and the 

Silhouette cut right on the edge.  It reminded me of the scancards we used to 

have for testing in college...And was a great place to tuck more things into!

I also went a little out of my comfort zone to use black thread for my stitching.  

It looked like the tiny scrap I used from the starburst paper from October Afternoon

that has the same black zigzag stitching between the patterns.
