I used the Perfect Pear Scent A Mist on this cute frame I found at the dollar store. I like that the wood grain still shows through but it is now green instead.

I used stamps from the Garden of Friends set to stamp and cut out on heavy paper the pieces on the frame. The inside is a piece of paper from Hollo's cut to size and stamped and colored then put behind the glass of the frame. A fun easy project that would make an excellent gift for someone to display on their desk or hang in their home.

Chocoholic Friends

When I first saw the Chocoholic Stamps from Elemental Doodles I knew they would be fun to use for things other than cards too! Today I am sharing something I made.

I saw this sign at Joann's and picked it up thinking I want to see if the Scent-A-Mist's will work on things like this. So when I got home I sprayed just the letters with the Chocoholic Scent-A-Mist. Mmmmmm I was messaging with a friend later and told her that spraying chocolate scent in the craft room at something like 6 AM was not the proper way to start off a Saturday because I was already wanting chocolate since every time I stepped near the room that was all I smelled! We laughed about it but I DID have to go get chocolate later in the day I couldn't take it anymore! LOL

I then used the chocolate "splats" to randomly stamp with Memento Rich Cocoa Ink all over the letters and the base.. It was dark enough that it contrasted with the Scent-A-Mist on the letters.

For the base part I used Ranger Distress Crackle Pain in Antique Linen. Look at the close up you can see the crackle. I didn't put it on real thick so the crackles are just small but enough for the look I wanted.

I used the wording from the stamp set to stamp along the sides of the letters it says:
"Friends are the chocolate dipped cherries of life!"

I then had stamped and colored and assembled some chocolate dipped cherries to use on the wood too. I attached them with red line tape. Can you see the cherries are all shiny too I used Crystal Lacquer on the top of them. As a finishing touch I added the thin band of ribbon around and tied between the F and R as it was a large gap and looked funny with nothing there :) I did use Tombow MonoMulti Glue under the ribbon so it would stay snug to the wood too.

So as you can see the stamps aren't just for cards and the Scent-A-Mist isn't just for paper! Use your imagination and have fun!

ED006-Coffee Cafe "Framed Coffee"

This image by Elemental Doodles is set off perfectly by the glitzy frame isn't it?

I layered a burgundy panel over the grey base and another grey panel run thru the Cuttlebug "Swiss Dots" folder over that.  I stamped the image in burgundy ink onto a scrap of white and trimmed to fit the frame then tied small tags stamped with words from the same ED plate onto the frame before adhering it all on the card.

It's hard to see in my scan, but the frame has gorgeous burgundy jewels scattered around.

Chocolate plus Coffee, equals yum!

ED006-Coffee Cafe

By using the same stamp set and coordinating papers, you can easily create a gift set that looks put together. Here I used the coffee set and coffee colored papers to create a group of cards that needs no more than a bow to be a wonderful gift. Add in a couple bags of flavored coffees and a HIS and HER cup, and you have a sweet and very unusual gift for the newlyweds on your gift list.
Enjoy ! >^..^<
