Other Supplies: 3D Foam Squares: SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES by 3L; Chalk Ink: Clearsnap; Cardstock: The Paper Company, Neenah; Ribbon: Unknown; Buttons: Fancy Pants Designs; Chipboard Letters: Advantus; Brad: Creative Impressions; Acrylic Paint: Unknown.
Nested Ducks S4-262 $19.99 Limited Edition (Largest duck is 4.25″x3.75,” Medium is 2.75″x2.5,” Smallest is 1.5″x 1.25″)
New Arrival I2-1011 Impressabilities™ $6.99 Limited Edition (5.75″ x 4.5″)
These cute products are perfect for any number of baby-themed items. I chose to share an altered frame for my second project featuring a photograph of my son Isaac from the day he was born. From the minute I saw the Nested Ducks die template, I wanted to create “quilted” ducks, and I’m thrilled with the way they turned out. Although these particular quilted ducks are made of paper, I did experiment with fabric and the templates cut certain types of fabric beautifully. The nice, simple lines make these great templates to use for experimenting with applique projects.
