A box frame for my Goddaughter's Christening

Morning all!

Today's project was something I made for the Christening of my lovely Goddaughter, Lucy. 

I decided to make something special as a keepsake, so I decided a box frame style card would be perfect. I printed the sentiment onto the inner panel, then added the cross from All God's Grace, which I heat embossed in silver before fussy cutting it out.

Keeping it simple, I finished with a large Basic Rhinestone.

We had a wonderful day at the christening. Here are a couple of my favourite pictures from the day, courtesy of Camera Obscura Photography...

I love these :) Have a nice day!

Everything Eleanor box frame

Hi everyone!

Well after the last little box frame I made using retired DSP, I decided I should give it a go with current DSP, so here is a pretty one I made using a 12in x 12in sheet from the Neutrals DSP paper stack.

I really love the delicate pattern on this paper don't you? I added a piece of white card to the background to hide the stripes that are on the other side of this double sided paper, and onto that I stamped the swirl from Everything Eleanor. This was one of may favourite sets so I'm really sad to see that it's retiring. If you want this set, you'll have to be quick!

The flower is stamped in one of the gorgeous new 2016/2018 In Colours, Sweet Sugarplum. I love this new colour!

A little tip that I realised in my eagerness to make this....stamp onto your back piece before you fit it into the frame or you may struggle to fit your block into the aperture! I almost fell fowl but got round it luckily! 

I'm going to be taking delivery of some customer orders tomorrow, so if you placed an order, I'll be in touch as soon as I do! Oh and there might be a little something in there for me too! ;) I'll share when I get chance!

Have a lovely evening!

Awesomely Artistic Box Frame

Good morning!

So today I want to show you a little shadow box frame I made last week. I used a single 12in x12in piece of Perfectly Artistic DSP for this, and when I had made the frame I decided it looked 'beachy' so that was kind of where I took it...

I used the kind of heart shaped splodgy stamp from Awesomely Artistic, stamped in one of the brand new In Colors for this year, and shaped a length of Linen Thread into a kind of heart then added one of the little Clothespins to hold it in shape.

I finished this with three tiny little hearts in the bottom right corner, but I have a problem...I can't remember which stamp set it came from! Can you figure it out?? I have searched my sets and just can't find it so your help would be seriously appreciated!

I plan to complete the frame with a shell or too from my next visit to the beach...what do you think?

I know I made this using some retired DSP from Sale-a-Bration, but I just wanted to have a play and see how the box frame would turn out...I'm very pleased with it and plan to make some more using current DSP :)
