Hello everyone!! It's Angela Ploegman a little sad, that it's my last post over here at SEI...but hopeful that my new friends will come visit me at my regular blogging home at Angela Ploegman Designs...
I any case, I definitely saved the best for last...here's the altered Inspirational frame I created with more SEI Couture papers!
This foiled, embossed chiffon paper was my absolute FAVORITE in the entire collection...it's so elegant and detailed and the gentle gradient of color from one side to the other was INSPIRING!...so I created an altered frame to hold inspirational quotes that I could easily change out when the need arose. The quote is printed on some of the patterned paper in the collection and embellished top and bottom with a bit of the shawl die cut lace paper. The Black Licorice Puffy Stickers are actually placed ON TOP of the glass, so they will always be there, even when I switch out the quote.
I have a new found love for crepe paper...the silver flower detail was formed from crepe paper that was punched on the outside edge with a scalloped border punch. I was then bunched and folded while adhering down to a punched circle base. Then it was embellished with some black bunched tulle, a silver flower and pearl gem. The purple embossed butterfly embellishment was double stacked on foam tape and finished with another couple of pearl gems...love the dimension this created on the butterfly.
Toodles all! It's been a blast this week, blogging for SEI!!

I loved the bami goreng recipe! Its very popular here in the Netherlands but being English I had no idea how to make it - until now
Oh gosh, Angela's frame is gorgeous!! Yes, that would be my favorite post this week :)
I really like today's altered frame. But it comes very close to the LO page too. Very cute LO pages.
the altered frame, for sure!
Aside from the wonerful recipes, I really appreciated the "I Have a Son" layout. The colors really drew me in and the great tip on using leftover paper strips to make the flower was bonus! Thanks for a fun and educational week at SEI.
Angela's frame is simply stunning! I loved all her posts but this one would be my fav. :)
What a beautiful altered frame!
I love the altered frame. I like the rosette right down to the quote inside the frame!
The frame is lovely - that is my favoirte post of the week!
Oooh! Angela's Curried Fried Rice caught my eye. Can't wait to try that recipe out. Thanks for the great giveaway.
I loved that she shared the wonderful recipes with us. I also loved her "I Have a Son" post.
Loved the recipes! Thanks for a great week Angela!
Its really hard to pick one day from this week. I guess today because it has the giveaway, but I just LOVED Angela's mix of recipes with crafting. I'm going to try both recipes because they looked fabulous.
I LOVE Angela's frame! The soft color palette and embellishments are just gorgeous! Thanks for the inspiration!
My favorite project of Angela's is this frame as it really struck a cord with me, especially today. My daughter has been going through a really tough time at school with a particular person and the saying on this frame fit perfectly! Plus, its beautiful!
I think the altered box was my fave. Well, that and the flower made with the foiled crepe paper!
I actually like both projects from today and Weds. Both are beautiful but I think I like the frame just a wee bit more. Love this collection.
I love today's altered frame but my favorite is "I have a son" because I do too and love to brag about both of my sons!
I really liked the altered pencil box but I think this altered frame is my favorite. It's gorgeous!
I liked all her posts! It was really fun to get a couple new recipes too.
I loved her first post. The LO was beautiful.
I loved the re-purposed pencil box and reminded me that I had one tucked away in my 'rainy day' project drawer. It is now front and center and I'm appreciating how thrifty I am! HA Thanks for sharing your recipes too Angela.
the box on wednesday was great, so that's my fav, but they was all interesting and yummy.
Love that rosette made out of silver crepe paper. It's gorgeous!
I love the pencil box!! What a fabulous way to re-purpose it!! I want to do something like that very soon!!

I really liked both the soccer boy page and today's frame... the extra details of how she hand-made the flowers on both were terrific!!
Love the frame, but the pencil box is my fav. I love the Couture line. Can't wait for Aprils club kit.
I loved the recipes. Specially the Bahmi Goreng. This is definatelly one I'll be trying soon. Thanks for sharing.
I like Angela's layout of her son...I like her "simple, layered and linear" style...it appeals to me! Neat idea to include unique recipes, too! :)
The pencil box wins for me, though that curried rice looks darn fine. :)
The gorgeous frame is my favorite!! TFS!
Thanks also for a chance to win a wonderful prize!
I loved the frame.It is just beautiful
Oh, Angela was so much fun! She obviously loves crafting. My favorite post has to be the repurposed pencil box. Oh, that flower! I can't seem to get enough paper flowers lately.
LOVE the frame!! It is my favorite.
Have a great weekend!
Melanie
I love Angela's Monday post. The flower on her "I Have A Boy" page is gorgeous!
Angela,
I absolutely love the Dale Carnegie quote on character and forgiveness. It truly is an inspiration that deserves to be framed.
Thank you for sharing,
Pauline M. Kirkpatrick
I really liked the recipe she posted yesterday. I really want to try it. She did a great job this week!!!
Love the pencil box! It has been a great week, thanks!
My favorite post is "I have a son". I also have a 7 year old boy and have found it more difficult to make pages that aren't so babyish. I will most definitely follow you on your blog and look forward to news from your lil monster.
I loved the covered box what a clever idea!
Angela's pencil box was inspiring. I have something similar that I can alter.
Do love the frame, but also thought the pencil box was pretty cool!! :)
I liked the little altered giftbox. The Couture collect looks beautiful!
I love the frame made with the Couture papers!! Angela work is stunning!!!
Maybe it is me being on a diet but I loved her post of her rice recipe.
Wow, great posts! I don't cook but saved the recipes for hubby who does! Altered frame, followed closely on its heels by the Son LO, would be my fav projects. However, the box really inspired me since I can't seem to throw out anything usable and better get busy trying some of those!
I think the frame that angela created is just gorgeous and I most likely will be attempting to recreate it to give as a gift, sometime in the future
What a beautiful frame! I can't wait to scraplift!
I loved the repurpose box! Great idea!
There were so many great things! I love the "I have a son" layout- beautifully done and I love that there's a flower on a boy's layout and it doesn't look out of place. Today's frame is gorgeous and I really want to try out the recipes!
I think that I liked this last post the most, mainly for the flower!
How super! I have a box collection and will definitely save this for a special occasion.
I totally dig today's post (Friday the 11th). I have been wanting to make photo frames for some time now, but needed a bit of great inspiration to use my metal words somehow, and here it is!!! Love the soft colours of this paper. Cheers, and TGIF everyone!
I love the recipes! I can't wait to try them....BUt, I really loved her "I have a son!" Lo!!! I loved the black matting and the way she used these papers for a masculine page!
My fab fav post this week is today's (Friday), inspirational frame. I really love the flower you created on this frame and the colors are just beautiful.
I love the frame , it's beautiful!!!
My favorite is the scrapbook page. I love the use of the mists and the black frames really make things pop.
Thanks for sharing the creation of the frame and the opportunity to win the fabulous prize!
This is GORG. I am wanting to learn how to create and design like this. I am at a loss and am not sure where to start. Any help would be appreciated! The frame is bananas!
Love that frame and especially that flower, that looks awesome !!! Thanks for sharing your lovely work Angela!
Absolutely stunning. I love the softness of the colors.

I liked the I have a son page. As a mom of a DS I love seeing examples of boy pages and those little black paper curls are so cute. What a great idea!
The pencil box is cute, and the recipes sound good, but I think my favorite is the frame. It's darling. I especially like the flower and butterfly and the rhinestones around the frame make a nice touch. It's pretty.
I liked the re-purposed pencil box, especially the inside.
I am so impressd with Angela's layout. The color choices and the clean layout compliment her handsome little man.
The paper is yummy too.

The Inspire frame is absolutely beautiful!
My fav was the "I have a boy"! I am always trying to turn girly or flowery papers into boy pages. It does work....most of the time! LOL!! I loved the flower that she made for that page.
love the crepe paper - but I reaaly love the use of pearlized paper and a flower on her page about her son. It works!
I really like the "I have a son" Layout. We will miss you too Angela! Best Wishes!
The recipe - yummy!!
My favorite post from this week is Monday's with the "I Have A Son" layout. I love the way Angela used the beautiful Bissette paper to make a boy layout. The misting on it is amazing and I love the flower! TFS!
