lots of love & you're a real gem

Make it Monday #312: Framing Sentiments & Images





Laurie Schmidlin shared several ideas for framing a 
sentiment or image on this week's MIM Challenge.
She makes the prettiest cards!!


My first card uses the Framed Out #11 heart, stamped in
Hero Arts Pale Tomato, clear embossed and fussy cut.

PTI Stamps: Framed Out #11
PTI Dies: Mix & Mat: Postal, Noted: Scalloped


The second card highlights an embossed gem 
on a red circle framed by a scalloped gold frame.

PTI Stamps: Be Mine, Valentine
PTI Dies: Noted: Scalloped Square, Tinsel & Tags
Paper: PTI Bitty Big Dark Indigo, red & gold paper from stash
Versamark Ink, Ranger gold embossing powder, fun foam
