She's All That-- Framed!

As soon as I saw this set in the Occasions Mini Collection 2008, I fell in love! It's been a long time since I felt that strongly about a stamp set, but I knew--- those tall, skinny, creepy silhouette girls had to be mine! Like many, I though "Nightmare before Christmas" and "Corpse Bride" immediately. I enjoyed that stylistic art, and I knew I would enjoy this set. I found this frame at Wal-Mart and grabbed the last one on the shelf. It's 12x12 and had a mat (which I promptly threw out) for four 4x6 photos. To make the framed art, I cut a sheet of Pretty in Pink card stock to 6"x6". I stamped the bride from "She's All That" and the Fairytale saying from "Full of Life" in Chocolate Chip Craft ink (Craft ink is more fade-resistant than Classic ink). I adhered the card stock to the center of a full sheet of Berry Bliss Designer Series paper and put it in the frame. Yup, that's it! I had a hard time getting a nice, glare-free photo... so one photo is not as clear, but without the glare and the other photo has a ton of glare, but is a clearer photo.
