Yeah the DTGD challenges are under way, and this is my first entry! I made this for DTGD10kittie747, Lost and Found. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Okay so maybe I wouldn't have thrown this acrylic photo frame out, I would have donated it, but instead I altered it! Now it's a message center, cause sometimes you need a night out with the girls with no interuptions!
This fabulous image is a FREE digi available at Amber Ink. She has several Digi's up right now, and Tuesday July 20, is the Grand Opening of her Store, with Stamps, Digi's and more, I can't wait!
For this, I made a mat for inside the frame with dp from Memory Keepers called Girls night out-on the rocks. I backed this with kiwi kiss. Then I used the MS grass punch for the bottom and sponged the grass edges. Then I slipped this into the frame.
I made a little holder for the post-it note pad with black cs and punched the edge with the scallop punch. The pencil is sort of a lost & found item too, I think it's from Ikea!
The images I used are from a set called Hope, Popcorn and Wine. I coloured the Girl and wine bottle with copics, and cut them out. I positioned the girl in the grass then punched a smaller strip of grass and popped it up with dimensionals. Then wine bottle is glued onto this piece. The flowers were made with the bitty SU flower punch and I added gems to the centers.
I love that you used your acrylic frame for a message board. Very clever and such a darling set of images. I especially love the grass border. Thanks for playing in the challenge.
