Frame It!


Morning Peeps :)


This week's Inspiration at La-La Land Crafts is Frame it!

Naturally, as I hate making boxes, because I always end up with a wonky finish, which totally does my CDO OCD head in, I decided to cut a frame from the centre of a card and then suspend another, smaller frame, in it.

Naturally, as I decided to cut a frame from the centre of a card to then suspend another, smaller frame, in it, I couldn't find my metal edged ruler. Sweet Cheeks likes to use my rulers as bridges for his cars and the metal edged one is currently MIA. And, it has to be said, the only one I do still have, the plastic one, is now slightly thinner than it was before!


This is Darling Marci, who, I decided, would look natural, sitting on a frame, suspended from another one, in the centre of a card!

Naturally, when I decided to sit Marci, on a frame, suspended from a frame in the centre of a card, I did not consider the practicalities of trying to take a decent picture of a card of Marci, sitting in a frame, suspended from a frame in the centre of a card ;)

Just look at this beautifully coloured Marci seated on a frame suspended in the centre of a gorgeous card! Lovely little corner dies and perfect paper choices, Fluff. It's funny - I lost my ruler today too - it encouraged me to tidy up some of my desk until I eventually found it half an hour later which enabled me to stop tidying and just scooch everything off to one side. Space is so overrated don't you think? Hugs, Lesl
