For Technique Challenge 442: External Frame/Internal Greeting
Today's challenge is to create a frame on the outside opening of your design, and to have the actual sentiment and main image on the inside. In other words......
We do a lot of framing with layers on the outside of our cards, but let's make openings of some shape to show what is on the inside!
My images are from kirstin2love by The {Stamps} of Life. I cut my frame using Sizzix Framelits dies and then stamped the flowers around the edge of the front. The inside was stamped with VersaMark ink and then heat embossed and colored with Copics.
This is also for CAS233 - to case a CAS Alum - Harriet (hskelly)! I chose this pretty card with the frame and saw so many beautiful greens and blues in Harriet's gallery for color inspiration. LOVE your gallery, Harriet! I changed images and used stamps instead of an embossing folder on the front.
Come play along!
