Embellished Frame

#kerriegurney 

Hi all Kerrie here with a quick project for the Couture Creations Blog showing how you can take a plain home decor item and just by adding a few embellishments created using Couture Creations dies make it your own



I have used a wooden photo frame that I purchased from Kmart 



Firstly I die cut two border strips using one of the dies from the Chandeliers Set, which I adhered to the front of top and bottom of the frame using the 3mm double sided tape. When adhering to the roof just mitre cut your border pieces. 
I then adhered some crocheted trim that I had coloured using Walnut Ink.



Next create your flower using the 3 smaller dies from the Sunflower Nesting Die set


cut in at each valley to create individual petals on all pieces


pinch each petal to give character


Layer together and add stamens or you could add some pearls or gemstones
Adhere to top of frame adding some muslin and you can see a sneak peek at one of the new dies from the our Christmas 2014 Collection


Finish off by adding some pearls to your border trim



Don't forget to follow Couture Creations on Facebook and visit the Blog for more inspiring projects from the Design Team



 Happy Creating Kerrie
