Stacey's frame

 I made this for my Sister-in-law. We did Christmas Wishes instead of giving presents and this was what she wanted me to do for he .  I made with the colors that match her house.  Her house is all earth tone colors.  This was the only paper that I could find that matched all the colors.   She seemed to really like it.

I pick up a bunch of these frames at Michael's when ever they go on sale for $1.50.  They are such I quick project.  Finished project cost no more then $3.

So these are the Frames that I made for my self.   I have not made any for my self before.  My hubby hung them for me this weekend.  They are hanging on the wall that is a joining my eating bar and kitchen.  I think they turned out pretty good.  I love these colors.

I used Urban Oasis which is my favorite DP pack from the Spring Summer 2009 Catty and Summer Love Rub Ons for the occasions mini catty.  

I painted the frames White and then mod podged the paper.

Post-it note holder

I made this awhile ago, it was for one of my very favorite people "Kim". It was her birthday last month. It was put in her birthday package.

I use chipboead coasters, then wrapped the DP around them. Then cut the black paper and put the ribbon behind it, make sure you cut it long enough for it to reach around so you can tie it in a bow.

Cardstock: Shimmery Black, DP is SEI

Tree of Life

My Father took at quick trip to Nova Scotia for his Father's 80th Birthday Party. Our family have been collecting this ornaments for YEARS. They release a new one every year for Christmas. He made it a point to make a quick trip to Amos Pewter for us. This is the new one for this year "Tree of Life". I decided I would put it in a frame.....I love the way it turned out.

This is the story that came with the ornament

"Look at a tiny seed and wonder at the extraordinary changes that will transform it into a majestic tree. With its high-reaching branches and deep-spreading roots, this tree becomes part of the great circle of life that links all living things. The Tree of Life reminds us of the greatness beyond our own lives, and the connections - past, present and future - which are such a part of who we all are and will become."
