All patterned papers and ribbons used are from Making Memories' Fresh Anthology Collection.

We punched a hole in the Fancy Pants chipboard. We wanted to hang both our initials but couldn't find a letter 'd' then Daryl said the 'b' can be flipped over to look like a 'd'! Clever!! So we painted them in Spotlight paint by Making Memories.

I wrote those words - don't forget. I'm getting the hang of Heidi Swapp's alphabets. The frame chipboard is also from Making Memories - painted and glazed.

We used those little metal beady strings to loop them into ring binders in order for it to hang nicely. Daryl had to ask his mum where we could find those beady strings. Tip: Check out the embroidery shop along Unitek/Kedai Komunis. Only B$0.60 for a metre! We used it to loop our chipboard letter too..jpg)
Finally, we slipped in our little vouchers to remind ourselves to use :) Definitely a worthwhile and handy project..jpg)

When i got home fri nite i remembered that i had forgoten to ask u guys wat u were stitching all those paper strips for. So now i know and oooh how i like! Wat a great idea! Hope to see it when i next visit.
Very nice n useful little project :) I've always loved scrapping involving stitching eventhough its hard work.
How did u ensure straight stitching? Did u also have something to 'seal' the beady strings with?
Lightly draw a straight line with a pencil where you wanna stitch then pierce them in even lengths with a paper piercer.
As for the beaded strings, we just used thin strings to tie both ends together.
I searched hard to find out how the beaded strings were tied, now i got it, will try it soon, it's so beautiful...
