Zebra and other cuts


These are pages from a sketchbook I keep for my experiments with my cutting machine.
The zebra was cut from. black card on a painted background.

I used the apple cut as a stencil [not the neatest painting]

The butterfly is yellow card on a painted background.
The following I cut and used as stencils, some from card [cereal boxes] some from plastic [folders].






Pink card cut outs. 
The green bricks are part of stencil - I stopped the machine half way through as the plastic wasn't fully secure.

I'm linking with Paint Party Friday

Baby Dress and Cardigan

I've not made any clothes for quite a while mainly because they didn't fit that well but I thought I would make a dress for the baby. I didn't think it would take long to make with it being small but I seemed to be making it for days.
My sister made the cardigan out of leftover bits of yarn she had and luckily it goes well with the dress.




This is four day old baby Joanie wearing the dress and cardigan laying on the quilt I made with a teddy bear that her other Grandma made.
