Framed

Well, I've been a busy little bee the past few days, with not much time to stamp for you my blogging friends....but today Julia has a challenge on SCS's Ways to Use it -  to use frames in your design and I have a pretty framed design to show you!

I've colored these gorgeous roses in this stained glass feel from Flourishes - Beauty Within set.  Much like our new set A Gift for You, this set is designed to fit with Spellbinders Dies.  I've colored with Copics for the background and leaves, and then just a light shading with Y0000 on the roses and then added shimmer paint on the roses (you'll see in the next few photos), so they look more like white or cream roses.

Above you can see some of the shimmer on the roses...it's so hard to capture in a photo, but it looks so pretty!

I've created the frame around the design by using the Labels Eleven shape on my magnetic spacer in the Big Shot, with two graduated sizes of the die set together and then cut out.  I've wrapped some gorgeous ribbon (Satin Finish Pear) around the frame too.

I've embossed one of the layers with the SU Manhattan Flower embossing folder, which works perfectly with this stained glass design don't you think?

One last detail shot.  I added some gorgeous Zva pearls to the design but because it was so layered with the framing I clipped the pearls to lay in different layers on the top section, it really looks cool on the card.

Thanks for dropping by!

I'll have something for you tomorrow too!
