Big Congrats and Silhouette Letter Placement Tutorial

 Hi Everyone:

Happy Sunday.  I decided to play around with my Silhouette Cameo today to make some flour sack towels for a friend's daughter who recently got married and is expecting a baby.  This is not someone I know personally so I am extra excited to surprise her.  I used the Silhouette Brand Heat Transfer Fabric Interfacing which is so easy to use.  I manipulated the design a bunch for the monogram.  But today wanted to share how I used my Silhouette mat as a template for correct letter placement.  After I cut my letters out of fabric and gently pulled them off the impression was left in my mat of the sentiment.  I laid my mat on top of the towel and slid my letters under the mat until they were in the correct place.  I was so happy to have found this trick for getting my letters straight.  Love this Lori Whitlock card too.  So elegant.

This above photo on the right shows the letters a little off so that you can see how I moved them into place and even though my mat is getting pretty aged I could still easily see my words which made placing the letters a snap. I made this set for two challenges, both of which are ironically Anything Goes.

Sensing a theme on my blog today, lol?  These are from our girls weekend to Nashville back in October.  I created this layout following the sketch from Creative Scrappers.  You need to play along, it is an awesome and fun sketch and is being sponsored by one of my favorite places, Paper Issues.

Paper Issues Simple Scrapper Sketch

Alert the press, I used spritz and a mask on a project.  I have had these masks forever and never even opened the package.  I love this photo of my dear daughter who loves country music and got me to love it as much as she does.   We saw several country concerts this summer and had a ton of fun.  More country layouts to come.  Be sure to play along with Paper Issues for this awesome sketch challenge sponsored by Simple Scrapper.  Hugs,
