Make it Monday 55: Feel Better








This week, Dawn McVey shows us how to create large frames with smaller frame stamps in MIM#55.  This is an easy and handy technique, and I can see using this often.  I used this week's ColourQ cQc#126 colors for my card.  How cute are those dishes with the owl--I think I need those, too.



Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps:  Fillable Frames, Background Basics: Circles, Background Basics: Text Styles, Mixed Messages
Paper:  Rustic White, Orange Zest, Summer Sunrise
Other:  Beautiful Butterflies Dies


Thanks for Visiting

  4. Apologies for the above post in part. Typing on my iPhone has proved to be rather exciting these days.... Bit unsure what you'll get! Sigh. Love the cheeriness. And the expert stamping of the circles.
