Double D Frame it

Frames have always been one of my favorite card making tools. When I see a new frame die, I just have to add it to my stash. This mood board represents all types of frames. My husband, children and I lived in Okinawa, Japan for three years and had the opportunity to buy wood block prints, etchings, and oil paintings that each have a special memory attached to it,  My husband matted and framed each piece we bought.  We would work together to pick what we thought would be the perfect way to enhance the art. 


When you look at the frames on the Mood Board, try to imagine what if anything  should be inside the frame. 


I just bought a new frame from Precious Marke at  the Dies R Us Store and had to use it,  This is another box of chocolates that I made for a special event. 

It has all my  favorite things: frames, flowers, and butterflies.
