Just Because Cycling Team

January 30, 2013 by audreypettit

Hiya Sweeties! Happy Wednesday! Today is a happy day for me. I am up on the Little Yellow Bicycle blog, sharing my projects for the Just Because Cycling Team!

Some of you may remember these photos of me and my kiddos from Christmas. I know I’ve used them before, but it’s a rare occurrence in my house these days to get decent pictures of all of us together, and I wanted to do something special with them. I think this bi-fold frame is really going to dress up my front entryway table for Valentine’s Day this year.

Just Because has sooo many cute embellishments that this project was super fun to put together. The base of the frame is just two pages from a chipboard mini album. I covered the pages with patterned paper and then went to town with the goodies. Then I simply tied the two pages together with twine.

I love that this frame will work perfectly for Valentine’s Day, but I think it’s versatile enough to work throughout the rest of the year, too.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I’ll be back soon with another project I made for the Just Because Cycling Team, or you can take a peek on the Little Yellow Bicycle blog. I would be so grateful if you all went and cheered me on! And I hope to get caught up on all my blog visits soon. Have a great day!

Supplies:

JB-134 Journaling Cards
JB-140 Fresh Verse Cardstock Stickers
JB-277 Stick Pins
JB-279 Chipboard Shapes
JB-304 6×6 Paper Pad
JB-305 Paper Crafting Kit
CBA-1007 Canvas Covered Chipboard Album

AAahhh, so much to love on this project. Great photos. I know exactly what you mean about getting everyone for a good shot. We got one great family photo over Christmas, only to find at a closer look that #1 son put guitar picks in his mouth for fangs. lol. The idea to use the chipboard pieces as a frame is genius. I have so many chipboard albums in my stash. Love all the embellishments you used on this frame project, it’s perfect.

Oh what a fun project and lovely photos! I used some of the photos more than once too as I rarely take picture, especially myself, so I just use those I like best more.
