This Diva Sketch is Clearly for You!

We've made it back around to another Saturday and another chance to play with a sketch from the Utah Divas! I'm looking forward to seeing what the others in the group have to share and I hope you'll take a few minutes to check them out, too. To see their posts, follow the link below or visit the Utah Divas Blog for a complete list of participants.

Our Occasions Mini Catalog introduces a new embellishment offering, Beveled Windowpanes. These acrylic frames make it easy to highlight a specific portion of your creation. You receive 12 windows, 4 each of 3 different sizes in your packet.  I've used the largest (1-1/2"x2") here.
 Isn't that neat?
To anchor the frame in place, simply slide some ribbon (up to 1/2" wide) through the slots on each of the long sides and adhere the ribbon to your project. I went for a vintage style here, but the slides look great over bold images, too! And, just so you know - the slides were sized to coordinate with images from the Clearly for You stamp set but can be used with any of your favorites, as well.

Now let's jump the planet and take a look at what Alisa has in store for us today. Thanks for stopping by! And if you need an Occasions Mini Catalog and are in the U.S., contact me (provide your mailing address) and I'll be sure to get one out to you right away.

Very pretty? How did you attach the cardstock with main image to the beveled window?

Now how sweet is this!?! Love it, Adriana. . . .

Tanya Boser said...

Sweet is definitely the word for this card :)

Heidi, I didn't attach the images to the window. The images are attached to the card base. The window is secured over the image by the ribbon holding it in place. I haven't tried it, but with the windows being clear I would guess that any adhesive would show.
