Hello Sunshine

March 1, 2012 by audreypettit

Hi everyone, and happy Thursday to you! Today I have another springy CHA project to share with you. I think I have spring on the brain these days. This time, it’s an altered frame I created for the Epiphany Crafts booth.

I had a lot of fun with this frame because I was able to combine and mix and match lots of Epiphany tools. It was truly an “anything goes” project, giving me the opportunity to just play with shapes.

If you’re keeping count, you may notice that I used three different Epiphany Studio Tools here. Square 20′s created fun nail-head corner detailing on the frame. And Heart Button 20′s and Round Button 14′s make up the flower stem. I used washi tape with the tools to create all the custom shapes.

The flower itself is made up of several layers. The bottom layers are die cut white felt. The middle stitched flower is an Epiphany Crafts piece. Yes, they make beautiful felt flowers, too. I added a rolled felt strip to the very top.

I’m so ready for spring! Are you?

Such a beautful Spring looking card.
Like the yellow background. Did you use a brayer bounce technique on that?

Yellow is not my go to color but the way you mixed and matched it with other colors makes it beautiful. Gorgeous muted shades and that layered flower is a fabulous focal point Love it!
