Yesterday I gave scrapbooking a try. I pulled out a piece of light blue posterboard, cut it down to approximately 12x12 size using a pair of scissors, and stitched a design on it, because this month's CC blog hop theme is Stitching. I tried to glue the photo on with a glue stick, but the posterboard keeps wanting to roll up.
I didn't have any alphabet stickers. I saw some at Staples, but I broke my "if you might want it, buy it NOW" rule and didn't get them, because I was already spending $18 on stuff that fit into the "might want it" category. I went back today and of course they weren't there. I had my driver ask at the stationary store for letter stickers. I told him I'd take whatever they had, and this is what he brought me:
Gold plated, metallic, and they don't match one bit. AND all the letters aren't even there. R, T, and L have been replaced by extra letters. Heh.
This layout will have to rest uncompleted until I get a box with some Thickers in it. Still, my stitching came out good and I'm happy with that.

LOL talk about scrapbooking materials abstinence!!! hope you can finish it, I like the stitching
The stitching looks great; and I think it is amazing what you have done with no supplies!
Great job with the stitching and the creative things you have come up with in absence of typical supplies. :)
