Photo Frame.

This is a 8 x 8 photo frame using the Friendly Words wheel. I love how this turned out. The photo is of my Grandparents on there wedding day many years ago. I used daubers to ink around the edgers for dimension and also rolled on the die cut flowers. I inked an uninked catridge with choc chip ink refill to make a choc chip catridge for the wheel. To finish off I added a few half pearls.

Ink : choc chip
Card : kraft, choc chip, very vanilla
Accessories: wheel guide, daubers, Die Cut-Blooms Again, Pretties Kit-half pearls, ribbon-pretty in pink, Flower Fusion Too-felt flower, mini glue dots

Girls Night In.

I'm getting really excited about our Girls Night In on Friday night that Tereesa and I are hosting.

What is a Girls Night in? It's simple - just come for a fun night of Craft, food and friends and donate what you would usually spend on a night out to the Cancer Council. The money raised goes towards research and support programs for women's cancers. Our theme for the night is Craft Fun and Stampin' Up! has generously donated a big box of goodies for us to use as raffles and prizes. We will be having make & takes, raffles, prizes, Cancer Council merchandise, nibbles and lots of fun.

If you would like to help make a difference email me stampin.with.leah@live.com.au for more info.

Thanks
