Seize the Birthday - Use a Frame

 Hello friends.  It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Ashwini would like us to Use a Frame on our Birthday project.


For my card I used a Stitched Scallop frame by Pinkfresh Studio.  It cuts in two pieces so you use just the outer part, the inner part, or both. I added foam tape strips to the back and kept it together as I like that look.  I blended Calypso Coral ink over the base of the card and stamped the sentiment from an older SU set before adding the frame.  The flowers are from Waffle Flower Tulips stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with SU Calypso Coral and Old Olive Blends.  The top bud is clipped from another image and added for more fullness.  I added them to the card with foam tape and tucked the bottom of the stem under the edge of the frame.

Be sure to check out all the inspiration by the team over at Seize the Birthday and I hope to see you in our gallery.

I will link to the Triple B Challenge - Birds, Blooms, Butterflies


Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn

  3. I like that look of the two frames together. It is telling me that it needs to be in my stash. You are an enabler! Simply adding the sponged ink and the lovely tulips with a vertical sentiment, you have made a ravishing card.
