Today is my final day with you as a Guest Designer and I have saved my favorite project for last! I found this little wood frame on clearance and immediately thought of the Monsterville Monster Mash paper! My intentions were to cover the frame with the monster covered paper and add in a cute photo and put it in my son's room...note I said "intentions"!
I began by tracing the frame base on the back of the Monster Mash paper and then I centered the frame stand backing and traced again, cutting out the frame and the center. The frame stand backing is typically larger than the window which allowed me to add a black mat.
Then I adhered my Monster Mash paper to the wood frame and covered with several coats of Mod Podge. I used the inside cut of the frame inside the window, so the paper patterns line up. This was going to be the photo mat...but as I finished up this project I realized that I love it just the way it is!
Currently this frame is sitting in my art room, where it will remain until my son (my #1 fan) talks me into allowing him to have it for his room! :)
I have had so much fun sharing my projects and want to give a big "thank you" to SEI for having me!
keep creating...Jamie

The Play Day Baby Gift Box was so cute. I really enjoyed having her here and will be a loyal follower of her blog becasue of it.
Loving all the wonderful inspiration! And totally love that cute little frame! Yep, this one is my fave post of the week. Because I can totally relate of not wanting to remove the original image in a picture frame, even a store-bought one! =p
Thanks for the chance at an awesome giveaway!

I enjoyed the monster tees, especially the one eyed one. So cute and cool
I love the play day gift box. I am going to try doing that project this week-end. I am sure that you could use different paper themes for different event and holidays.
I have really enjoyed this week. Even though she had great cards and projects, Tuesday's post was my fav cause I just love that layout she did. I am more a scrapper than cardmaker and that layout what just so stinkin cute!
Luv the Never Too Old layout but honestly great posts all week long. The projects and cards were all scraplift worthy!

I love that frame so much but the iron on shirts are the cutest.
Adorable frame Jamie! Those monsters are so stinkin cute!!! I think this was my favorite project. Probably due to hearing the process of creating it and how it ended up being something you hadn't intended. Love it when that happens!
