We Would Like to THANK our Guest Designer for April


Hello! My name is Jackie. I am blessed to be a SAHM to five beautiful children and wife to a most loving and patient man. I started out scrapbooking in 2008, when my daughters’ began 4H. Since then, I have become passionate about all kinds of papercrafting. I began teaching a scrapbooking and mixed media class at our local homeschooling co-op two years ago and love every minute of it! I love to learn and pass that knowledge on to others. I am truly honored and thrilled to be Guest Designing for the month of April at Eureka Stamps! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of this wonderful team for the month.

Faux Stitching Made Easy !

Hello, today we will learn the easy technique of stitched paper without the machine. Now I know this has been around a very long while..heck even other companies have made template after template to make the task easier..but these can get pricey and even though I love a short cut..I love being frugal too :)


Supplies:

mouse pad
large needle or needle tool
12 inch ruler
thin line black marker
1 piece of paper same length as the one you are piercing

When I faux stitch I set the item to be pierced down on the mouse pad and place ruler along the area I believe I want pierced...i try to stay within 1/16 - 1/8th of an inch off the edge of the paper..this gives the item a more polished look. I then begin using the needle tool every 1/4 in mark and poke. "see picture".

After I have poked all holes I then take the piece of paper that I cut to be the same length and place it slightly off the center of poked holes. 

I then ran my black marker down those holes.....Wa La ! Easy faux stitching..I have also realized if you want the stitches to look like denim thread that Copic marker Y26 is perfect for this :)
