Lucky To Be Me Wall Art

Today I am sharing an altered frame that I created for my daughter's room.   I bought this frame from the dollar section at Michaels.  Originally, it was black so I painted the frame white and then cut strips of glitter paper which were decoupaged onto the front of the frame.  I stapled coordinating sheer ribbon to the back to hang the frame.
After finishing off the outside of the frame I removed the glass and added some patterned paper as the background.  I used Cotton Candy Stickles to outline the flowers on the patterned paper.  Then I added pearl stickers to the center of the flowers.
Next I layered a strip of brown card stock on top of the patterned paper which was punched with a Martha Stewart punch and finished off with some sheer ribbon and a bow.  I also added a heart doily to the background.
The shoe and layer were cut at 4.0 inches from the Gypsy Wanderings cartridge and the title was cut at 1.5 inches from the Gypsy Font cartridge.  All of the die cuts were popped up on foam for added dimension.  I added a coordinating paper flower and a couple of pearls to the shoe as embellishments.
I cut two layers for the title to create extra dimension.  I offset the bottom layer which is cut in white to create the extra shadow.
I am entering this project in the Jinger Adams design team call.  Jinger is coming out with her own product line and her own shoe line and she and The Scrapbooking Queen are looking for designers for the new product line.

Me and My Sisters Layout

I created this girly layout to use for some fun pictures of me and my sisters.  I used the Summer in Paris and Gypsy Font cartridges for this layout.
The title was cut from the Gypsy Font cartridge and welded together on my Gypsy.  The dress form, french maid and crown were cut from the Summer in Paris Cartridge.
I cut off the feather duster in the french maid's hand so she didn't look like a maid.  Now she looks like she is holding that big diamond ring on the patterned paper behind her.
I used a Martha Stewart Border punch to add the lacy border between the two patterned papers.  I also used white foam flowers, diamond stickles and a white gel pen to accent the die cuts.  The die cuts were popped up on foam dots for the dimensional affect.
I used three layers for the mats to break up all of the patterned papers in this layout.
