We're still creating with Festive Frames this week ... include at least one frame in your card design.
Here's how we got framed this week:
This fortnight we'd like to see cards that incorporate at least one frame as part of the design. Here's how we got festively frame-y this week:
Stephanie says, "To make my frame, I used two Nested Ovals Double Stich Dies from Pinkfresh Studio and silver glitter cardstock. I used this week's Sketch Saturday layout together with a tree from Fancy Pants Cookies for Kringle Ephemera, a vintage Memory Box sentiment and an edge die cut from Tim Holtz Sizzix Vault Edges Thinlets."
Link up your own Framed masterpieces right here! JB2513: Festive Frames runs until 6pm (Eastern) on Wednesday, July 2nd.

This week at Jingle Belles the theme remains Fa-la-la-la-la ... We're asking you to create a card that incorporates music, a musical instrument, or a holiday song title or lyrics.
Here's our tune this week:
Lauren says, "This week I raided my stash of vintage sheet music and I chose a nicely patina-ed page to coordinate with this fun (ancient!) Basic Grey flower sticker. I added a few strips of washi tape, some inked edges, a chipboard sentiment and a shimmery red mat... et voila!"
