When I created this LO, I used the Juggling Act patten from Magic ( CTMH's latest idea book). At first, I used only Sweet Leaf and Twilight to match the striped paper in the Dotty For You paper kits. It was just not "right". It needed a "POP" of color and that is how the Sorbet accents came along. Normally, I would not add another color unless it was in the patterned paper. I took a risk, and am pleased with the results.
Here is a close up of the left page:
Close up of the right page.
I wanted to show you this close up, because it proves a point: mistakes can still look good. I had intended to stitch the Sorbet strips down, but did not realize that the thread had come out of my needle on my machine. Once I started , there was no going back. I repeated the thread-less stitches on all the Sorbet paper strips, and it looks intentional. It looks good (even if it was not what I planned).
You Can Create!
