This weeks assignment for Hobby Alternatief was to make an up-cycled frame, I couldn’t find one I liked at home so I went to look for an alternative. By change I saved a template a few weeks ago on how to make one from a sheet of card stock, I just needed to find and adjust it to how I wanted
Wall decoration, or is it a card …. who is to say, it can be used as wall decoration, window decoration or a card. I made both sides the same, but I could have left the back blank so you have some space to write the greeting on. I have no idea how long it took me to make it, but most time went into gathering aal the dies I wanted to use, everything else was just cutting and pasting…

Lovely and sweet, word art tag This weeks assignment was a fun one, we had to make something using word art, which is more often used in journaling or in mixed media projects.

A wonderful technique for a novice because you can’t go wrong, it did take a bit more time then usual because of the layers you keep…

Before I added the mat I stamped the holy random…
