I got this great idea from my love, Tim Holtz.  I used paper, distress inks, paint, and crakle paint to create this frame for my mom and I.  I love taking all of the little pieces and putting them together to get a finished product.  Each piece was prepaired on chipboard and distressed to get the nice weathered/muted effect!  You can find "family" on the cricut home accents cartridge and then I just added a little stickles to "bling" it up!

Enjoy!  Leah

A number of us were checking this out at the store the other day and making notes...it looks fabulous with all that texture and dimension...and the details like the little sticker you put on the center of the flower button!

The crackle on the squares is genius. Why didn't I think of that!
