Stella And Mood Swings

Hello and welcome.  Today is Anything But a Card Monday at Catch The Bug so I have another framed piece to share using a new Bugaboo image for me called Stella Tidbits - Caution and a dollar store frame.

After printing it out as a 3.5x5 inch image onto Neenah white card stock, I colored it using both prismacolor and copic markers before lightly stippling some Tim Holtz tumbled glass and milled lavender distress inks around it.  I then took the frame apart and traced the frame part lightly onto the image panel so I would know where my borders would be.  Taking several pieces of scrap Stampin Up card stock, my leafy vine sizzix die and my big shot, I began making several vines to drape from above the image and from the frame itself.  I then took a Martha Stewart three hydrangea punch and made several two-toned flowers.  Once I began assembling the frame, I place the glass part behind my image for added support, which would give me more room for the vines.  The vines and flowers then were assembled using micro glue dots and Ranger Glossy Accents.   I'm really pleased with how this turned out.  I'm going to hang it in my house instead of giving it away. ;)
