Embellishing to make a frame "POP"

Sometimes just a little touch of bling or a little embellishment can make that special gift just a little bit more special.  These pretty antique brads did just that for a birthday gift.
 Cut the backs off of the brads with wire snips, heat up your handy glue gun, and you can take a frame from ordinary to extraordinary in seconds!
This photo and frame was a birthday gift for my mother in law.  She and her twin sister are featured in this news article.  She was thrilled when she opened this gift!  Such a great memory for her!

Be inspired to create!

Thank You and Happy Birthday!

I was lagging a little on my Thank You cards to Julia and Judy (the craft twins) and I have 3 cousins birthdays to celebrate this Saturday. Had to get busy!!
I am a big fan of black and white, my second favorite colors are black and beige, so I am loving the Mocha Morning paper pack.
Used the Mocha Morning paper to make the Thank You and Birthday cards. I am loving this paper!!


Wanted to make a little gift to go with the Birthday cards.
I got to use my brand new Scallop Envelope Bigz Die (think I will be using that one A LOT!!)
Using the Mocha Morning paper I made these cute little envelopes and matching flower magnets. I sure hope my cousins like their cards and gifts! I do! :)
For the magnet I used the Blossom and Boho Blossoms punches. (more of my favorite new tools!)

Have a great week!
Be inspired to create!
