Hi, everyone! This is a birthday gift I made for my little niece, Alice, for her bedroom. See the matching birthday card here. Since the frame was ten inches long and my dies were A2 size, I carefully lined up the Cloud Border Die and the Neighborhood Border twice in a row to cut across the panel and have one continuous panel for each. The ODBD Custom Large Letters were cut twice, once from the ODBD Shabby Rose gingham pattern and again from Mauve for dimension. The Neighborhood Border Die was used again to cut out the gingham houses, then each was fussy cut and adhered over the green base layer. The trees were highlighted with markers. Since I used fussy cutting and the die-resizing technique, I will be submitting this to the September Fan Club Central Theme Challenge. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

Oh, yes, Angie there was a LOT of cutting on this beautiful gift! Wow, what planning and designing you did, and it is just the sweetest. Between the card and this frame, Alice and her parents surely know that she is loved by you. Gifts like this one are made with great love, and it sure shows. I absolutely love it and think you totally rock making the continuing 10" strip with the dies. Rock on, sweet friend! Hugs and love! xoxo

Angie, what a beautiful gift for your niece! The pink gingham on the letters and buildings looks so sweet and I love the layers of clouds. Off to see your card!
