All Bundled Up


I have been busy making some Christmas items for a local Boutique, and this is one of the items I will have for sale.  I love making our bracket frames!  I used Frosted paper and stickease to complete the frame. I sanded down the edges of everything to make it look a little wintery.  I cut the paper for the frame with the Art Philosophy (it fits perfectly!), and I cut the poinsettias with the Artiste.  The twine is has got a metallic line in it, and I pulled it from my stash.  When I had everything clustered where I wanted it, I finished it off with some Stardust Glitter Gel.  

I think I will enter this into some challenges:
Papercraft Star - Photo Inspiration
Shopping Our Stash - Holiday/Winter
Fantabulous Cricut - Beyond Red and Green
Heart 2 Heart - All Framed Up
Love to Create - Holiday Gift/3-D Project

Thanks for stopping in today, and may your day be full of blessings!

This is such an elegant project and really beautiful. Great job!! Thanks for participating in the FCCB challenge. I didn't realize how hard it would be to leave out red and green in a Christmas project but I too, found silver and gold to be a good substitute!
