Simon Says - Frame It

Hi Everyone...welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog. Thank you for joining us for last week's challenge and we hope you can join us this week too because

and the theme for this week is...

FRAME IT 

I created a funky floral card using Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Tiny Text, cut into strips to make a frame around the Brickwork 3D Texture Fade background, decorated with Tim Holtz/Sizzix Abstract Elements, Blossom and Bunny Stitch Thinlits and added Idea-ology Sentiments Label Stickers.

I coloured an A2 panel of Distress Watercolor card using Salvaged Patina and Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide inks, smooshed Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide ink over the raised side of the Tim Holtz/Sizzix Brickwork 3D Texture Fade and ran through my die-cutting machine. I left Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Tiny Text in tact on it's cover sheet, inked with Ground Espresso Distress Archival ink, laid a panel of Distress Watercolor card on top to transfer the ink and cut into strips. I fixed strips of foam adhesive around the edge of the Texture Fade panel and added the strips to create a frame.

I added the negative die-cuts from Tim Holtz/Sizzix Blossom Thinlits, coloured Wild Honey Distress Oxide ink, left over from a previous make which I fixed in place with foam adhesive.

I die-cut Tim Holtz/Sizzix Abstract Elements from scraps of card and fixed in place with Distress Collage Medium and foam adhesive to create a dimensional funky floral scene.

I added stitches from Tim Holtz/Sizzix Bunny Stitch, die-cut from black cardstock to fill in the blank areas.

To finish I added Idea-ology Sentiments Label Stickers and matted the panel on to a white card blank.
