Thank you for joining us today! If you hopped over from Cristina, you're in the right place. I hope you're ready to have some fun. Our super talented ladies have some amazing projects to share with you. Make sure you stop by everyone for some inspiration and super crafty ideas that could be used to decorate your homes, gifts, or just for fun!!
For my project, I decided to make a Picture Frame. I have been wanting to put this picture up of my son for a while, but just hadn't found the right frame for it. I happened to be at Micheals the other day and came across this unfinished, wooden frame. It was just sitting there, waiting for someone to pick it up and do something with it. So I thought, "why not?" Here is the finished product....
 |
| The patterned paper is from DCWV The Winter Wonder Stack. I cut out the lit' snowman with Stretch Your Imagination. The snowflakes are cut with Joys of the Season. |
 |
| "Winter" is cut with Gypsy Wanderings. "Fun" is cut with Disney's Pooh Font. I made the dots with Acrylic Paint to give them more dimension. |
I hope you guys liked it. I also made this cute Holiday Block for our newest member of the family. This is my nephew Martin. I'm giving this to him for Christmas.
 |
| The wooden block I bought at Micheal's. Cardstock is from DCWV The Christmas Stack and DCWV The Christmas Cardstock Stack. |
 |
| I used Disney's Pooh Font for the lettering. The candy canes are just stickers that I've had. |
 |
| The stocking was cut with Christmas Cheer and the snowflakes were cut with Joys of the Season. |
 |
| My reindeer was cut with Create A Critter. Added some red stickles to the nose and scarf. |
 |
| I covered the picture with Acetate to protect it. The buttons are used to cover the glue spots. |
 |
| I cut the tag with Tags,Bags & More. The name was cut with Disney's Pooh Font. The ribbon is from Craft Essentials. |
