Baby Beautiful Altered Frame

With summer winding down and the kids off to school, I'm busy getting ready to welcome a new bundle of joy to our family in just a few weeks.   I could think of nothing more fitting for my Designer A Day project with Imaginisce, than a beautiful altered frame to hold my baby girl's first photo.  Without a doubt, the Love You More Collection is the perfect choice for this project.  I've had a craft frame from Michael's in my stash and finally put it to good use! 

With the Imaginisce I-bond hot glue gun I glued the background paper right onto the frame and then began layering borders and embellishments on the frame.  

I hand cut the pennant flags, lacing them with the twine for the background of the title at the top of the frame.  I just love the Alpha stickers in this collection and created the Baby Beautiful title with them. 

There is so much love and excitement in our family right now as we anxiously await the baby's arrival and I think that this altered frame perfectly captures that.  I can't wait to put the first newborn photo in it!  

Visit Imaginisce throughout the month to see what the rest of the Design Team has been up to for the Designer A Day projects.  

Supplies:  Love You More Collection, I Bond Hot Glue Gun, The Twinery baker's twine, foam tape, craft frame from Michaels.

Have a fabulous day!

Bubbling with Fun

Hello there!  I'm here today to share my Imaginisce summer project with all of you.  I thought it would be fun to put together something to take to the next BBQ or summer get together we are invited to.  Most people find themselves bringing a bottle of wine or something for the hostess.  Why not bring something fun for the kids to enjoy at the party…..like a bucket full of bubbles.  You can find these in the seasonal section of any store right now.   They come with the bottles of bubbles and tons of fun bubble wands!  

Supplies:

Imaginisce Childhood Memories Collection, Bubble Bucket, Bubble Want, Imagi-cut Ribbon Cutter, Imaginisce Glue Gun, May Arts Ribbon, Ranger Glossy Accents, pop dots.

I took one of those buckets of bubble fun and altered it using the bubble theme paper and embellishments from the Childhood Memories Collection.  When making this project, I used one of my favorite Imaginisce tools, the Imagi-cut ribbon cutter.  

This thing is amazing!  It cuts and seals the end of your ribbon for the perfect cut and no more FRAYING!  

Hope you all having a great summer!
