Frame Art

Today I have a fun project to share.  I actually made this picture frame art last month.  My awesome upline Patty Bennett gave our group a challenge to make frame art using one of the new sets of Designer Series Paper.  I made my frame art with Afternoon Picnic, take a look.



I love all the colors in this particular DSP so it was easy to create a color collage of hexagons.  The only thing stamped here is the sentiment from Sweet Essentials.  I went through the different sheets of DSP and punched out the different designs with the Hexagon Punch.  The background is one of the sheets of DSP as well. 



I arranged the hexagons how I liked them then added a few small flowers with pearls.  I added the sentiment to one of the hexagons.  I punched a 1/2" circle in the center of hexagon then tucked the one end of the banner into it. 

This was a really fun project, a big thanks to Patty for inspiring it with her challenge!  I have another frame sitting on my desk so I can make another frame art at some point.  I can see this type of project being addictive!  Maybe I should figure out a way to add a paper bow too....lol!


If it doesn't move...stamp it!!

Let's get ready for Halloween!

I don't know about you, but I love little treats and decorations for Halloween.  I am already planning out some party ideas that I thought would be fun to share! I've been busy as you can see!  It all started with the thought of doing a banner and I just kept going and going! Each piece of the banner has different stamps and die cuts from the Howl-o-ween Treat bundle and was way more fun to create than I anticipated!  The panels are each 4" x 6" with the banner end hand cut.  I am actually working on a tutorial to release next week with the instructions for the banner and the treats so you can make your own!  UPDATE: YOU CAN FIND THE TUTORIAL HERE! Now let's check out all the treats.  I wanted a variety so there would be something for everyone's taste. I am well known for my chocolate chip cookies, so a cookie envelope was the first idea to come to mind.  They are 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" and are just the right size for a cookie!  The envelope punch board mad...

I'm sure that anyone that follows my blog knows how much I love shaker cards and confetti, so I had to do one for today with a critter!!  The Cheerful Critters set is just so cute I knew it would be great as a shaker. The inspiration came from the December Paper Pumpkin kit that I have made a bunch of cards with.  It was super easy to recreate using the On Film framelits and the Best Year Ever Designer Series Paper.  The bear from Cheerful Critters was stamped and colored with blendabilities then fussy cut and glued to the front of the shaker.  A bunch of stars from the Confe...
