My True Love Frame

This little princess is my True Love and I love to show off her photos!   For this project I have used the 4 x 6 Craft Frame which is perfect for the smaller prints I order online. I have also used an older paper line from Authentique, Blue Fern Studios Chipboard, Tattered Angels paints and Sprays, and several paper flowers.

I added a Beaded Stick Pin to the corner of my frame. You can see a tutorial on how to make your own stick pins here.  I used foam tape from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L to give my sentiment some dimension and finished this section off with a few small flowers.

In the upper corner I added a piece of distressed chipboard to the back of the frame, adding flowers and a small ribbon bow on top.  I used a variety of paints and sprays from Tattered Angels on the chipboard piece.

I started with a couple of coats of High Impact Paint, letting each coat  dry before adding another.

Next I added a spray of Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist and used a low temp heat gun to dry it.

Here is the finished product - lovely!

Beach Fun Acrylic Frame

We are into the heat of summer here in North Texas and that always turns my mind to thoughts of the beach. Today I have a fun project to share using the 5x7 Black Craft Frame from Deflecto.  These frames are so flexible and I love that I can add embellishments outside of the frame for extra dimension.

For this project I used a variety of bright papers and stickers, and lots of Petaloo Flowers.

The larger center flower was colored using Tattered Angels Mist in Dragonfly, then the flowers were adhered to the outside of the frame using a low temp glue gun. The photo and sticker were adhered to the background paper and inserted into the frame.

I used more flowers and some cute embellishments from Maya Road on the bottom corner. Yes, I did feel the need to fussy cut that flamingo from a piece of paper - I have no idea why! But it is so cute :)

Bridging to Cadettes- Part 1

Howdy blogging friends!

How have you been??? 

I have missed all my virtual friends these last couple of weeks.

I am slowly on the mend and getting better eery day.

Since I am still on pain medication I have not 

attempted to do too much scrapping!

I have doodled around in the studio a bit here

and there, but mostly I spend my time

lying on the couch and letting The Hubs wait on me :o)

Not a bad deal really!

I wanted to share a layout I finished up. I started this when I was 

at retreat in August, but I just couldn't file it away as "done" -

it needed a "little something".

I FINALLY figured out what it needed and finished it up.

One more Girl Scout Layout down!!!

I have used some older Bo Bunny papers for this one. 

I really wanted to express the passage of time and these papers were PERFECT!

I used my Cricut for the title, bling is from Recollections, and the

journal card was fussy cut from the PP.

I fussy cut the clocks out of coordinating paper and scattered them

around my layout. A little spritz of mist on the background helped to

finish the layout off and the brads are Bo Bunny.

Now you know white pace is my enemy and I think this is why I couldn't put this one away -

I had this large space in the center that was making me nuts!

MUST FILL IN WHITE SPACE! 

So I grabbed my favorite set of 7 Gypsies stamps and filled in.

Yes, I know I typo-ed the journaling, but such is life.

I had my years mixed up!!

And look - it is relatively FLAT! Yeah - mission accomplished.

This whole making flat pages is killing me!

I need to finish of this project and go back to making

lumpy pages again,,,,,, soon.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

I have another post-op check up tomorrow,

I am really hoping that I will be freed from the couch.

But it isn't likely. He told me two full weeks, maybe three. 

Very. Big. Drag.

Seriously.
