It’s Wednesday and time for another challenge over at Frilly and Funkie Challenge Blog!
This time it’s my turn to host the challenge and I’ve chosen the theme LOVE IS IN THE AIR! “Create a vintage or shabby chic project with love as the central theme. Think hearts, cupid, love and romance in whatever colour palette your heart desires.”
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new black cabinet cards and baroque frames by Tim Holtz. When I put them together that die cut heart appeared! Seriously! I didn’t even have to die cut it from the love struck die set and cover with candied apple distress ink! It just appeared! 😉
I die cut the cupid from the new adhesive backed textile surfaces by Tim Holtz and blended with distress ink. I also used it under the baroque frame but this time covered with picket fence distress paint and overstamped with a sentiment stamp from the handwritten thoughts set with potting soil archival ink. The baroque frame was aged using cracked pistachio distress paint and gold mixative alcohol ink. I sanded the cabinet card and blended vintage photo distress ink into the sanded portions. *TIP: If you won’t see the back of the cabinet card, split the card and keep the back for another project.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you will find time to join in the challenge and pop over to Frilly and Funkie challenge blog to see the rest of the DT’s projects. All the products I used are available from The Funkie Junkie Boutique.

Gorgeous Zoe and I can see why that beautiful heart magically appeared inside your lovely cabinet card and baroque frame, it was indeed meant to be there! The cherub looks wonderful as well die cut from Tim’s textile surface and love the finish on the baroque frame with the Distress paint and alcohol ink mixative, filing that wonderful tip away for future use! Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful project, Deb xo
