BBTB2 - Frame Challenge

Hi,happy Monday. Hope you had a good weekend.

Today is a new challenge over at  BBTB2.
 The lovely Melissa is hosting our challenge this week and wants everyone
to create a project using a frame from any Cricut cartridge.
The Design Team were given the extra challenge of using it on a layout!


I have to say I have never made a layout before!

I made this for my parents,just need to add their photo.
I made it into a wall hanging as it seems a shame to put away in a book and it is very dimensional!!
....sorry to all your scrapbookers out there!! lol.


Recipe
Storybook for all cuts
Poppy frame 8"
flower 2.75"
leaf 2.25"
butterfly 2.5"
mats 2.75" & 3"
Bo Bunny DP
Ticket and sentiment
CTMH - Zoology
Art Philosophy ticket cut

We would love to see your projects with a frame cricut cut. Do check out the amazing projects from the rest of the team over at BBTB2.

Looking forward to seeing your creations. You have 2 weeks to link up.

Hugs

Monogram

Hi Everyone,how's your week going? Doesn't time fly when you're having fun!

I  want to start by saying thank -you for all the lovely comments I have received and I appreciate each and everyone of them.

Today I have a card I have made for my friend Alison. Her birthday isn't for a couple of weeks but I wanted to join in the challenge over at Cricut Cardz. You have to use a monogram. This is what I came up with...


I used Storybook for the initial and mats and used Just Because Cards for the card and tag layer.
Everything embossed and inked. Added twine and a MS punch butterfly with pearls.

To show the dimension.

My friend is a pink kind of girl and I think she will like it. Thanks for looking.

Pretty Box

Hi,hope you all had a fantastic Easter. Looking forward to another long weekend as for anyone who doesn't know we've been given Friday off for the Royal Wedding and Monday is a bank holiday! Yippee!
Today I have a special box I've made for my Mum. I am going to fill it with something special for her.
I am entering this into these challenges:-
Fantabulous Cricut        - #11 - Mum's the Word
My Sheri Crafts            - #54 - 3d gift item
Celebrate the Occasion - #11 - Mother's Day


Recipe
Life's a Party - hexagonal box cut@ 8.75"
Storybook - Mum letters 1.25",Branch fancy corners 1.5",Branches 1 - 1.5",Scalloped circles(flower shadow) .75 - 1.5"
Ranger glimmer mist - heirloom gold
Vintage photo distress ink
Glamour Dust

I'm guessing probably just about everyone knows how to make these flowers but just in case...
Circles inked,wet and scrunched.Open them out,put a brad through 3 or more of them and whilst they are wet,glimmer mist,scrunch back into flower shapes. When dry they are very solid.I then added glamour dust.

Thanks for stopping by.Have a special project to celebrate the Royal Wedding which I will share tomorrow.
Take care,hugs,Jayne x
