Relax...Dream...Love...

Hello ....

I hope you are having a terrific week so far.

Mine has started off as a busy one and that's the way I like it!

I am super excited to share this new project with you.

If you regularly peek in at The Open Window you know I am a

huge fan of Little Yellow Bicycle

and I am so looking forward to my upcoming projects for

their Swoon Cycling Team.

Until then...I've been playing with one of my favorite collections

since 'Twig'...and that is 'Saturdays'.

I spied this great acrylic collage photo frame on one of my recent visits to

the craft store and knew exactly what I wanted to do with it.

I used a variety of elements from the 'Saturdays' collection for each of

the frames and for texture on the OUTside of many of the frames as well.

I loved the designs on each of the double-sided textured cardstocks.

I had a very limited amount of product to use I'm afraid as my trip to

Archivers proved a few days too late!  I knew this design from LYB

would be huge hit and clearly, much of it was picked over, but I made the best

of it and cut each 2"x3" very thoughtfully : )

Here is a view of the dimension this frame lends and the different textures

of both the cardstocks inside and the stickers on the outside can be 'felt'.

The additional element to this frame was the 'Twiggy Tree' from Memory Box.

Of course, no dimensional project is complete without a little bling & pearls

in just the right spots, so I added berries to the bicycle basket and LYB gems

here and there and and it just felt right to stop when I did.

Of course, this would be totally stunning if you substituted a few B&W photos

among these beautiful reds, blues & browns.  I didn't have anything chosen, 

but I thought of it the entire time...so I think I would LOVE to do 

another one with that in mind.

I sure hope you enjoyed this idea half as much as I enjoyed working on it.

You can find all the amazing products I used for this project over at LYB.

Thanks for stopping by and I will be back tomorrow night with a brand new

challenge from The Play Date Cafe.  See you then!
