July Designer Inspiration - Judy

Hello there!

It's Judy here with an altered frame project.

I have used 

Love Song.

Colored the digi with Copics and fussy cut.

The frame used is unfinished wood.

I painted the edges with gold acrylic paint.

Cut a designer paper to be a little smaller than the frame.

die cut squares to fit photo opening, glued all and decoupaged to seal.

The flowers were fussy cut from the designer paper.

I added die cut flourishes.

The sentiment and music staff were stamped.

I have more photos on my blog

June Designer Inspiration - Judy

Hello there!

It's Judy here with my inspiration project for this month.

I've created an altered frame using

Spring Daisies.

I started by coloring the image with Prismacolor Premier Pencils and fussy cutting.

I took a small wood frame from Michaels and traced it

on to the backside of the DP and cut.

Next the paper was decoupaged to the frame front.

I die cut layered ovals for the image backing and adhered

to the frame opening. I added daisies that were die cut and rolled,

a black bow created with ribbon and a title out of dazzles stickers.

Altering frames is one of my favorite things to craft

and love the way this one turned out.

I hope you like my project and

 that you'll check out this stamp

October Designer Inspiration - Judy

Hi there!

It's Judy here with a little

Cute As A Button

 inspiration for you!

This month I created, yet, another altered frame

with an image from the

Wizard of Oz Bundle.

I think you'll all recognize this one as the Tin Man.

This is the last image in the bundle for me to use.

I've showcased the other 4 in previous posts.

They are some of my favorites and I love

playing with the inexpensive frames I use for altering.

I colored with Prismacolor Premier Pencils nd fussy cut.

The background paper is decoupaged to the frame.

I used some die cuts to embellish thproject.

I created the flowers with heart die cuts.

The inspirational quote is from The Wizard of Oz.

I hope you like my project and

September Inspiration - Judy

Hi there!

It's Judy here

sharing this altered frame I created using

the Scarecrow image from the

Wizard of Oz Bundle.

I colored the image with Prismacolor Premier Pencils and fussy cut.

The background paper from my stash

was decoupaged onto a wood frame.

I used square Gemni dies to create a frame around the opening.

I found the quote on the internet and generated on the computer.

The sunflowers are layered stickers from Recollections.

As I've said before, I love these Wizard of Oz digis and

 hope you'll check them out

August Designer Inspiration - Judy

Hi there!

It's Judy here sharing an altered frame project.

I used the Dorothy image from the

Wizard of Oz Bundle.

I printed the image, colored with Prismacolor Premier Pencils and fussy cut.

I found a patterned paper in my stash to use as the background.

I used the frame as a template to cut out the patterned paper.

Next I painted the back and edges of the frame in

a coordinating acrylic paint.

The next step is to decoupage the pattern paper to the frame front.

I found a quote I liked to fit my theme and sized it to

fit the frame opening.

I had layered poppy stickers from Recollections in my stash

which worked great as embellishments.

Added a bow and the image.

I love these Wizard of Oz digis and hope you'll check them out

along with all the other  products available at

May Inspiration - Judy

Hi there!

It's Judy here with a little inspiration for you.

I took an inexpensive wood frame and

created a table top plaque using

Your Name is Like Honey Fairy

I colored the image with pencils and fussy cut.

 The frame was painted with gold acrylic paint.

I added black glitter paper after cutting out the heart opening.

Layered hearts were die cut to fit over the opening.

The sentiment is dazzles stickers.

I had layered daisy stickers in my stash and added

some bee dazzles stickers which I back with gold metallic paper.

The image was adhered on the right side with foam tape.

I added a gold bow to finish.

I hope you'll take a look at all the products available at

February Designer Inspiration - Judy

Hi there! 

It's a cold and snowy day here in Colorado

so I thought a little crafting inspiration was in line.

This project is an altered frame using a beautiful digital from

Cute As A Button.

You can get this digi in the

Wizard of Oz Bundle.

I colored the image with Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend Markers.

For the sparkle, I used a Spectrum Noir clear sparkle pen and some glitter glue.

I took a wooden frame, painted with acrylic paint

and decoupaged the DP from DCWV to the front.

I found the quote online, printed and fit into the photo opening.

The flowers were created with a Crafter's Companion quilled flower die.

I added some glitter glue and added to a piece of a wood frame,

which was painted and glittered. I added ribbon, gems and twine.

I appreciate you taking a look and hope I've

provided a little bit of inspiration!
