Over at Jingle Belles we're still making cards that incorporate at least one frame as part of the design. This week my fancy frame dies helped me to rescue a beautiful-but-damaged vintage postcard!
A few years ago I purchased a set of holiday postcards that were not in good condition, but since I wanted to use them on Christmas cards, that was fine with me. This one was the most battered of the lot: it had several very large creases and was entirely missing its lower righthand corner. But luckily, by finding two frame dies of just the right size, I was able to select the nicest bits, frame them up, and showcase them in a collage of Tim Holtz/Idea-ology Pocket Cards, 7 Gypsies velvet holly leaves and assorted festive washi tape in coordinating colors.
Be sure to check out Stephanie's card at Jingle Belles, where you will also find all the info you need to link up your own Framed masterpieces! This challenge runs until next Wednesday evening, July 2nd.
