I am excited to bring you a sneak peek of Melanie Muenchinger’s newest frame set - Festive Frame! If you have enjoyed the frame sets Melanie has done in the past - you are sure to like this one as well! Not only do you have a gorgeous floral frame, but some truly lovely holiday themed verses as well!
For my sample today, I chose to emboss Melanie’s frame. To make it pop a little, I used a mix of detail silver embossing powder and some Christmas mix glitter I picked up at a stamp convention a few years ago. I figured this would make a nice, elegant frame with a bit of sparkle. I ended up liking the result so much - I chose not to color it and just left it to stand alone.

supplies: Festive Frame by Melanie Muenchinger for Gina K Designs; silver cord; cranberry crisp ink; silver detail embossing powder from SU; Christmas mix glitter from Stampin Around; versamark; Cranberry Tart Pure Luxury cardstock; Holiday Button Assortment; glue dots; Silver Lining Cardstock; and heat gun.
