Hi Peeps! I hope everyone had an enjoyable Easter Holiday. I did, spent my day with my Son’s, future Daughter-n-law and husband. It was perfect!
I broke out my new Stampin’ Up! set Four Frames and paired it up with the Stampin’ Up! set Plant Hope and the matching label punch for the Four Frames set. Decided to incorporate the frame stamp in my scene and then punch it out. Makes for an interesting scene.
Before I get started on today’s tutorial though I have a blog candy winner to announce first. The winner of the Stampin’ Up! set Four Frames is . . . . . . . . .drumroll, please. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
