Are you coming to the party?  There’s quite a buzz in the air.  Who will be there?  What will it be like?

Fun, fun, fun!  That’s what I can promise.

We started a new Mystery Class at Bedecked and Beadazzled today!  It’s the Garden Party Heart Mod Collage by EyeCandy.

With each Mystery Class I stitch it section by section unveiling it a little at a time – just like a mystery book.  There are twists and turns as you all try to guess what I will do.  Where I will put beads and sparkles and leave canvas exposed.  Sometimes I surprise you which always makes me smile.

This canvas is a challenge.  There’s just so much going on.  Where to start, what to do?  My initial plan was to stitch the heart first as that’s the part that needs to come forward.  That plan quickly went out the window as the ideas started flowing.

I decided to start with the backgrounds.  Not really that surprising when it comes to me, but considering this canvas doesn’t really have a background it is sort of surprising.

I chose stitches for the backgrounds that mirrored the design of the section.
