Fun Friday SUSIE Q-TIP!

Well, it’s me, Susan here, with another Fun Friday SUSIE Q-TIP! I don’t know about ya’ll, but I was ready for my girls to be out of school for the summer yesterday when I picked them up at noon. We have lots of fun (and cheap) things planned to keep us busy (no vacation per se) on the days that mommy isn’t stamping. So I had summer on the brain when I made this card for today’s SUSIE Q-TIP. I thought the little Fairy Fhiona looked like she could be a summer fairy to get us smiling in anticipation of the fun we will be having! (Don’t forget I’ll be giving one away later in this post.)

Speaking of FUN, today we are going to DO THE WIGGLE! I have a quick picture tutorial on how I sew, WIGGLE style. Let’s roll…

First we have to get what we are about to sew all ready:

 

By the way: 
  LOL!!!
 

 

 
Don’t ya’ll feel like this sometimes?  Going around and around, but getting nowhere?  Word.
 
Ok, that’s all from me today!  I hope ya’ll enjoyed it.  Special thanks to Mini Fairy Fhiona for playing “Summer Fairy” for me and helping out today with a smile.  I hope my children act just as precious as she looks over the next 3 months.  
How would ya’ll like to win a Fairy Fhiona of your very own?  Just leave a comment on this post, letting me know how a Summer Fairy could help YOU out and Karen will pick a random winner (as long as ya’ll are behaving…see?  I’m in “bribe” mode already!) and post it here soon.
BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!!!…
Are ya’ll ready for a NEW RELEASE from Your Next Stamp?  GOOD!  Because we have one coming your way that includes lots of fun new stamps and dies.  YAY!!  
The SNEAK PEEKS will be starting this Sunday, June 3rd and will continue on through the 6th when we will have our Blog Hop!  Stay tuned for more details on the upcoming Release Party on our SCS forum HERE!

    I just love your card and the sewing tutorial! Thanks for sharing! A summer fairy would definitely help me with my summer layouts and projects! I just moved recently out of state away from family so going back home to visit for vacation and taking lots of pictures at the beach will definitely look adorable on a layout with a summer fairy!

    Hugs,
    Jo

    I like your wavy sewing. Could Summer Fairy help me clean and organize my craft room?

    Gorgeous card, love the sewn border. We could do with some of Fairy Fhiona’s Summer magic here to keep the rain at bay, at least during the day, for a bright sun-shiny Summer 🙂

    Great tutorial! I need to add stitching to my cards more often. It looks easier to deliberately sew crooked rather than trying for perfection and missing!
    I think this little Fiona Fairy could guide me in some wavy stitching as she flits to and fro!!!
