Confirmation frames

Today I decided to make some frames for a card using 

CROSS STITCH NESTING SQUARES

It's always nice to get more uses out of our dies.

I started with the large to create the square, then cut with the next die to create a frame.

I did this a few times.

I then cut one of the large frames into 4 pieces

and used them to create the illusion of a larger frame,

simply glue in place to cover the cuts.

I glued these to my card base

then continued to layer more frames and one centre piece

using dimensionals. The centre will hold my photo.

To create a frame for my wording I used one of the left over squares

and placed the die as above to get a bottom line of crosses.

I used top and bottom of this square to get two frames.

I added some little punched crosses, pearls and wording.

Sorry to block the centre but I don't like sharing kids photos online.

For my card I used

Papers are from Stampin' Up! Bundle of Love

Gold Mirri Card

Small cross punch

Blue pearls
