My take...

Good morning all!  It is Labor day weekend and I thought I'd use this wonderful, relaxing weekend to catch up on some LONG over due posts.

Today I wanted to share with you my take on that beautiful frame that was featured in the Spring/Summer 2013 Idea Book .  My attempt was to use all CTMH products.  Except that I chose to use a rustic, burlap ribbon from JoAnn's.

I cut the flowers from CTMH Art Philosophy & Artiste Cart.  I rolled them using my quilling tool and used hot glue to put them together.

I chose to use CTMH's bracket frame (which was quite smaller than the frame used in the idea book...)

I placed all my flowers where I wanted them before gluing.

After I had glued all the flowers down, I added leaves (cut from CTMH Art Philosophy cart), wooden flourishes & fabric covered buttons.  I also added some gems to the center of all the flowers.

Here is the completed frame.  The banner was made from CTMH Artiste cart and the wooden flourish embellishment pack.

I hope you all like my take on this frame.  I had a blast making it.  Once the flowers were all assembled, it came together fairly quickly.

(Sorry about the poor quality pictures.  As I was making this frame, I was taking pictures of the process with my phone.  After the frame was completed, I had given it away to a friend before I had a chance to take any pictures of it.  The last picture was taken at my friends house.)
