Framed sunflower

 


I saw a die frame similar to the effect I have achieved here and wondered if I could replicate it without buying more stuff! It was actually harder than I realised as I could only find this one die that would fit on the frame. I think it is an old Tattered Lace one but have no packaging as a friend gave it to me.

I cut the die four times around the frame and then coloured it with glitter markers and re inserted it. I then stamped the middle with a sunflower stamp and leaves (possibly by Chloe) and coloured with the same markers. Finishing touch is a CE sentiment die.

I'm entering this into the Triple B challenge where as always the theme is Birds, Blooms, Butterflies.

The frame looks lovely Lynn, well done for using stuff you already had to make it, it always gives me immense satisfaction to make my own version of things rather than buy something I will probably hardly use...even though it can take ages and cause a little bad language!!! xx
