I just saw the Feb issue in Borders today - this magazine seems to be going from strength to strength. The articles were fantastic and I especially loved the Everyday Moments bit by Nic - she is soooo inspiring. Anyway to go along with the theme of the mag and just appreciating who you are in your own space and all that,  I have this layout....

Using mainly Scenic Route pp, with some AC thickers and hand stitiching. People have asked me how I do my stitching...there is no trick...just poke holes with a paper piercer and then go backwards and forwards with thread on a fairly small needle. Usually I go back over the pattern so that the design becomes more "filled in", but if you use more strands or thicker thread then that may not be needed.

Cheers,

Amelia
