Quilt Explosion

This is my LO for Pammy's Circle Challenge.


My Mom(who is a longarm quilter )and I go to Columbus every June to the National Quilters Association (NQA) Quilt Show that is held at the Columbus Convention Center - Battelle Hall/Hyatt Regency.

There were so many quilts, that the room that they were displayed in looked like it was EXPLODING with quilts.

I wanted this to look almost like fireworks... and the circles with the quilts in it being the explosion.

Only cardstock and photographs of quilts were used on this layout except for a sheet of rainbow striped paper that is adhered behind the black cardstock.

Each circle is a piece of cs cut into a circle with wedges of quilt photos adhered to it and then embellished with coordinating brads. The smaller circles are just pieces of the quilt photographs cut into circles. Using a hole punch I punched tiny circles to each of the big circles - then adhered the striped sheet to the back so you could see the colors.

* I got the idea to try this technique with the hole puncher from the July 2006 issue of Scrapbook Etc. Pg 122 a LO called Life in Motion by Nic Howard. *

Thanks mshell for reminding me of the name of the scrapbooker! Its much appreciated! :)
