today is "beyond the page" day on the bella blvd blogwhere we take our scrapbook supplies and products, and use them for things other than layouts or cards. here's what i decided to create for my take on this idea.

EatAndBeHappy_frame 

i have a ton of frames in my kitchen, above the cabinets, that i have been meaning to do something with for months now. they're all propped up there, without photos or anything inside of them. so when i saw that one of my guest artista projects would be to make an altered project, the first thing i thought of was my frames. i choose one of the black frames, in the 11×14 size.

i had just picked up a bunch of the tim holtz distress ink pads, and thought it would be fun to use them for this project. and the colors matched perfectly with the man of the house collection, which matches my kitchen colors perfectly. i used the letter stickers and some white tags, to do a fun masking technique. 

check out the bella blvd blog, to see how i created this fun framed project. i decided that it was too cute to put back on top of the kitchen cabinets. so it's now front and center, on the kitchen counter by the stove. i just love how it turned out!

    This is really cool! I also have an absolute ton of frames that I’ve collected over the years with the intention of putting some photo enlargements in them or doing some altered art but you know how it goes..always something else to do LOL…Love the colours of the tags & your masking instead of using the letters…
