The Present 5"x7" Home Decor

This project was originally meant for the current Heart 2 Heart Challenge (Sentiments Only), but then I found out that I couldn't use it for the challenge. Why, you ask? My project is based on a beautiful sketch I found on the Got Sketch? blog (#129). I'm glad I went to the blog itself instead of just reading it my Google Reader (you do use Google Reader, don't you?), because you are NOT allowed to use their sketches in any design team work. Oops! So I whipped out a quick card for my DT project instead and saved this one to show you today.

This frame starts with a 5"x7" base (all of the paper is from the Typeset paper pack). I then embellished to my heart's content, maybe going a little overboard with those yummy Licorice Opaques.



I'm not sure where this little project will sit, but I'm sure it will find a good place in my home. I certainly need a reminder to slow down and enjoy TODAY. It's the only guarantee that we have!

  1. LOVE that folded paper flower! I have that punch and now I need to figure out how to make one of these. Or maybe I'll get you to show me on Saturday...
