Hi everyone, this is Sandee waving to you from the beautiful hills of North Carolina :)
Where it is hot, hot, HOT!
I have really been enjoying all the wonderful projects that RRR DT has been showing us and I am in love with that Stay Put Craft Mat, and I think I need it! How about you? Yes? I thought so! Me too!!
I would love to share one of my favorite places to visit, which is the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC. I love walking the grounds and taking plenty of pictures, and what better way to display a current favorite picture and a place to store my Biltmore ephemera than an Easel Picture Box!
I also love texture, and burlap just makes me happy when creating any nature project. I used the Burlap Woven Ribbon Natural to make a handle pull on the drawer and as a stop for the easel frame. I love how the end of burlap just frays for that rustic look!
It has to do with the drawer:
other products:
Creative Imaginations and Scraps and Scribble paper
Copics
Maya Road Velvet Blossoms
Ranger Liquid Pearls
Close to My Heart ink
Thank you~
Sandee

ReplyDeleteGorgeous project all the texture and grainy paper really give it an outdoor feel.
ReplyDeleteSandra
What a perfect way to showcase your picture. It looks antique, but the picture is modern...masculine, yet feminine, too...nice balance.
ReplyDeleteAll that texture is yummy. Who knew you could get burlap ribbon? Now I must have some! Best of all, I like the way you've captured the theme of the photo and enhanced the photo, without overwhelming it. To me, it's still the heart of the project.
ReplyDeleteYummy textures, that burlap works really well. The overall effect is stunning :)
ReplyDeleteHugs, LLJ xx

Do you ever see something in a post and wish oh wish it was yours? That's what I am wishing! I love the photo the paper and the fact you made the whole thing. I would love to make one and put a picture from our Hawaii vacation. Oh thanks for sharing.

I love your box -- what a great idea! This could be a great way of commemorating a favorite place as an alternative to scrapbooking about it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic project - just loving that easel box frame!! Glad you liked the mermaids! Thanks for popping by to see me, Cindy #18 WOYWW
ReplyDeleteI love that easel box! It is gorgeous. I did go visit your blog Sandee and was hoping for a tutorial or template to help me create a similar piece. Alas, none was there. I am off to see if Score Pal can help. Thanks for sharing your finished product. It is lovely!!!
ReplyDeleteThat mat sounds terribly intriguing. Something that doesn't try to escape? Something that doesn't curl up on the edges? Whaddya know! But let me get to the topic at hand--your gorgeous box/easel frame doo-hickey thingy! Totally lovely! I love all the touches of nature on it--the twine, the branch, the wee flowers, the colors and of course, the photo too!
ReplyDeletelovely design, great idea too itis very unusual

You rock girl with that Easel and the picture is beautiful too what a wonderful creation, you should be proud. Thanks for sharing you secret tips and tricks. LOL
ReplyDeleteEliza
This is just too cute! But I really expect nothing less from you.
ReplyDeleteGreat project! I love it!
ReplyDeletevery pretty, love the burlap and the colors.
ReplyDeleteSandee this is stunning! Love the rustic feel to it too!
ReplyDeleteI love nature. I love flowers. I love pictures. I love your project!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to make an easel card which incorporates a box underneath. And even better that it is a picture frame. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful project!
ReplyDeleteDeniseB
beautiful frame! love the warm colors and the added branch.
ReplyDeleteActually, that's a fabulous idea! You need to do a full on tutorial on how to make that easel frame box thingy. I gotta make one of these for my Mum - she's about to take a trip to the Holy Land in September, and this would make a fab memento for her!
ReplyDeleteAmazing box! I love the textures throughout.
