Photo Holder

I have been dying to make an oversized photo holder . I love to check out Kerry's blog.  She has an amazing talent...she's just awesome.  I can't say enough.  Anyhow, she had some of these photo holders she made and I was dying to try it out. I found 4 on ebay for $2 and I decided to give it a whirl.  The one I created is for a young lady, Grace, who graduates from high school this year.  I thought it would be a nice gift that she can take with her to school.

The stamp is a stampin up sentiment.  I only used the graduation cap. The rest of it says "hats off".  The grace stamp is one I got on ebay.  I used SU paper for the scallop (2") and the circles are 1 3/8" and 1 1/2".  The silver is a paper I picked up at JoAnns.  The black and silver paper is also JoAnns.  I used stickles (diamond) on the hearts to give it a little punch.  You know I love bling.  I can't ever leave anything basic.

I sure hope she likes it.

I also learned how to make rosettes tonight...so I'll post a pic tomorrow.

TTFN!
