Good morning, I have another new JustRite stamp set release to share with you today! This one is a beautiful, versatile Elegant Frames cling set:
The oval frame in this set coordinates with Spellbinders Labels Ten Nestabilities die and the rectangle frame coordinates with JustRite's Custom Nested Frame Dies (largest), to make it easy-peasy to cut out these pretty frames! I decided to make a Springy 6-inch scrap page of my girls:
(Click on any photo for a larger view)
I stamped the large frame with Memento Rhubarb Stalk ink onto Neenah Natural White cardstock and then die cut the frame, using JustRite's largest Custom Nested Frame Die around the outside and Spellbinders Petite Classic Oval-Lg Nestabilities die #2 on the inside, to create this photo frame:
The edges of the frame were sponged with Antique Linen Distress Ink and then popped up over the photo of my girls (with 3D Foam Squares) that I printed in an old photo/sepia tone. The sentiment in the upper left of the photo ("There's No One Like You") is also from this stamp set. I stamped it with Rhubarb Stalk ink -- it fit perfectly in the frame that was already printed on this beautiful Webster's Pages Spring Market petite 6x6 paper!
Zva self-adhesive pearl swirl accents the upper right corner and to finish this page, I made a tattered rose. To make the rose, first I broke up the fibers in some melon colored cardstock by pulling the cardstock between my thumb and a bone folder, similar to if you were curling ribbon. Keep doing this in every direction, all over the cardstock and then peel the cardstock apart in layers:
The peeled layers have a great texture, similar to suede! Next, I used Spellbinders new Blossoms 3 (right dies in the photo below) and Dahlia flower dies (left in the photo below) to cut the melon cardstock. I used two different styles of flowers mostly for the ease and quickness of being able to die cut all the pieces at once in my Grand Calibur, and also for some variety in flower shapes:
I started with the largest die size that I wanted my flower to be, and then used all the dies smaller than than that, from both sets. After die cutting, the fibers in the cardstock were a little smushed back down flat, so to bring them back up and give some color variation to the flowers, I sponged them with Memento Rhubarb Stalk ink:
The flower in the upper right of the photo above was sponged, the others were not yet, so you can see the new texture and color created. Next, I crumpled each flower, stacked them together and sewed an ivory button into the center. The smallest die cut flower accents the pearl swirl in the upper right of the page. Small cream organza rose trim finishes the page.
Thanks for stopping by today! You can find more samples using this stamp set today over at the JustRite Inspiration blog and we'll be back tomororow with another new stamp set introduction.
