Good Thursday morning to you all! It's Sabrina here as your hostess this week, and I want you to think about frames. There are some great tutorials which I'll link below if you want to try something different, but you can also use stamped frames, chipboard frames, or those decorative wooden ones. Frame it any way you want! If you want to alter a pre-existing frame, that's good too.
TLC744 ~ Floating Die-Cut Frames (and I was thinking that low-tack labels would probably work for the transfer, if you have sheets of those repositionable ones)
I hope you'll have fun creating some sort of frame or framed project today. Remember to use the keyword WT749 when you upload it, amd it's very helpful if you come back and post a link on the challenge thread here.
Here's a link to my sample: WT749 Christmas Ornament
(I made another card last night using the floating die-cut frames technique, but too late to take and edit a photo. I'll be along with it later.)
If you're not sure how to add a link, here's how:
1. Open 2 windows or tabs: one for your card in the gallery, and one for this thread
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Go to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
And as always, I'd like to thank my fellow teammates for the samples they've created for your inspiration: Lisa used those wooden frames I mentioned and made sweet shaker cards; Carla's die-cut frame is beautiful, and Cathy too has some beautiful die-cut framing on her inspirational card and Toni tried out one of my suggested links to great effect.

I'm back again with a card this time, my granddaughter is celebrating her third birthday during her stay here at the end of the month and she loves Frozen!!
Sabrina, Thank you for the great challenge today! I have done the faux wood frame before, and I am looking forward to trying some others. Today I went the double matted layers. Here is my Wonderful World

Hello, Thanks for this challenge and for looking at my card. : ) Yesterday I was browsing last week's challenges and wanted to make a card for the Teapot Recipient, Stephanie, who likes to read. I was inspired by seeing another lavender plant image on a card in the CAS542 French Bastille challenge and I knew what to make Stephanie. I had done something similar years ago with these stamp combinations and I wanted to reference the devotional book for cancer patients 'Lavender Hair' in the inside message of the card to Stephanie, and that was my starting point. I was able to combine several challenges from last week and I think Stephanie will enjoy the card. '
I hadn't done much 'framing' with dies, so it was still a challenge for me. I am not sure that it is cut and applied on the card super straight / exact. whew this was the toughest part of making this card. but it encouraged me to do it and practice will make it easier. ! thanks for the fun challenge for me.
Enjoy your day, Teresa
Playing catch-up challenges and gallery entries. I've ceased to wonder if I'll ever actually catch-up. Something is bound to come up to put me further behind. This COVID-19 virus sure didn't help, because now my mojo is gone as well! Perhaps that means I might catch-up on gallery entries??!!
