Happy August Everyone--Photo Stitching

I have a few things to share with you today. Besides this one that is going to show you how to stitch photo's together or scrap book pages I have another swap I am sharing. I was also asked by several to share templates for the shaped card swap. I will see if I can dig them up and share what I can. My pig card if you go back you will find the pattern site there. You will need to make the template for the pig smaller unless you want him a bigger size. I reduced mine I believe by 20%.
Tomorrow my oldest son Chris turns 21! My oh my where does the time go? I remember the 3 days of labor with him so vividly. My bouncing baby boy was born at 10# 14 1/2 oz. and was 23 inches long. Needless to say he was the size of a 3 month old baby when he was born. And yes they did finally take him by C-Section! Whew! What an experience that was!
Ok now onto the project. Maria over at Photo Inspirations has a nice tutorial on how to do this with step by step directions and pictures to help out. What a great tutorial.
Hope you enjoy

Penny Spinner Card

From the Swap Movement Mania. This one is made by Staci Wood. Isn't this cute! I love the crab on this one and how she has a message in the middle slider area. She also used the ?Sea Shell Wheel to do the back ground on both the blue and the caramel card stock. Added the stitched ribbon which really set it off.
Directions for this card can be found on SCS.
Enjoy

Double Slider Card

Another swap card I got. These that I will be sharing are from the Movement Mania Swap. And what a fun one it was.
This card is made by my friend Pam Miller. You pull on the top and a message comes out on top and one on the bottom. I have a card doing this same technique on my blog here too. I really love these cards they are real fun to make. Directions for making this card is on my friend Dawn's Blog.
Enjoy
