Great story and layout. What a clever husband..so nice to have a handy man around the house. Love how you tied up each photo. Great mixed media layout.
This is so fun, both the story and the lo, as well as very inspiring for techniques and execution. I especially admire the stencil work and love the twine used as gift ribbon around each photo. Your title is a hoot.
love all the layers and details- sounds like you have a keeper- I accuse my DH of "touching" something & it's fixed- he is very talented that way as well & doesn't seem to understand that he's a rare breed
Aww that is sweet. Sometimes husbands are useful with crafty stuff. I just had mine in my craft room last night fixing a few things and it was no problem to him but would have taken me forever or not at all. Fabulous LO. and story.
oh Corky - that story is one of horror for any of us with machines! I love that your Dh could fix it - what a wonderful layout you have here! Great textures and wonderful inking
What a fun story, and I so totally understand the love affair with our machines, even more impressed with a dear person that can fix them!!! The way you used the twine around the photos first caught my eye!
After borrowing a Cricut several years ago I decided I wanted a Sizzix Vagabond and loved it. The second year I had it much to my horror I overstuffed it! Went online and it would seem it was a goner, not repairable so I finally told my husband what I had done. He looked at it and saw how it was supposed to work and took it in the garage put it on the lowest cement step got a piece of wood that fit and using a big hammer, pounded on the wood and it came loose! I was so impressed! Then 2 years later it stopped working and my husband took it apart and he found there was a gear that had gotten stripped. I was sad and after thinking what I want to replace it with I bought my second Vagabond and it's working like the champ that it is. So I had fun creating this lo and been wanting to tell this story, maybe it will help somebody someday! My dh never fails to surprise me after all these years. I always say the smartest thing I have ever done was marry him! Hope you enjoy the saga! LOL
