I love it when we have rooms to choose from for out inspiration. I chose Room 31. Fortunately, I picked up this chandelier stamps (Heidi Swapp) this past week. I just love chandeliers.
What I did:the chanelier, greeting (Stampendous) and flower (Autumn Leaves) were black embossed on b.blue. Then I used the nestie rectangles to cut them out. The chandelier was a little tricky. I had to set the rectangle on top and mark so I could cut around area that would end up out of the box. Then I inserted the nestie rect. w/ the cut out parts on top.
For the white frames around my images, I placed the larger nestie rect. on the white c/s then place the next size smaller carefully inside and cut them. This leaves a nice embossed edge frame. I attached my images inside, added black & white dots and rhinestones to the chandelier and the flowers.
The bg was stamped w/ a large swirl like image (MM) and the white chalk ink. I used a smaller image from the same set and stamped in black. This is attached to a white card that the front was bugged using the textile folder. TFL
