Camp Scrap 2017 rolls along, today inspired by my embellishment line 28 Lilac Lane! The products used here are new mixes – coming to your favorite stores soon. For more information about my Camp Scrap event you can check out the FAQ page here. Mixed Media isn’t always about pastes and color mediums – sometimes I mix & match embellishments! That’s where I’m taking today’s mixed media Friday…
I’ve made shaker cards… but can I make a shaker frame? When I saw these cute little frames at Michael’s I decided to try. What I’d like to find is bigger (thick/sturdy) sheets of acetate to try this on an even bigger frame. I also think it could be fun to do this in a frame where you have a photo, hand crafted art/stamp/image or any other variation.
Here is my YouTube video tutorial sharing my how-to.
To recap supplies I used a frame, assorted 28 Lilac Lane embellishments, PPA adhesive, and of course a sheet of acetate… well 2 in my case.
I’m really loving how this turned out – such pretty fun! What could be more fun? How about winning not one, not two, but SIX brand new, never before seen, can’t even get them in stores yet mixes?! Leave a comment on this post for your chance to win, and on July 16th a winner will be drawn at random to win a box full of 28 Lilac Lane goodness.
This project reminds me to look at materials and the possibilities outside the usual. And as ALWAYS – enjoy the process. Have a great weekend – thank you for joining me!
Hadn’t thought of a shaker frame. I have a couple picture frames so Will try one this weekend.
Your shaker frame is so darn cute! I don’t think I’ve seen anyone make one before. I love it! I especially like how cute and tiny it it. The mix of sequins/beads/buttons is perfect. How adorable!
that is so cute! I love the colors of those buttons.
Such a cool idea! Love the embellishments! How exciting about your line, can’t wait!
Oh my goodness MAY-I think this is my favorite creation of yours ever! And I’m still working on the frame for my doggy friend and this just gave me a new shot of inspiration-I love it! 28 Lilac Lane is my newest guilty pleasure.
Another great video and can’t wait to try this out. Have always loved what you do with frames. Thank you again for another superb idea.
what a fun project! I just love that mix by lilac lane, so many treasures included. I never would have thought to make a shaker frame like that, but boy is it ever super cute and fun. So glad you did a video tutorial as I need to check that out, looks like a fun summer project.
This is adorable!!! I will have to go through my frames and do this! thanks for a chance to win!!!
I adore this, I can’t wait to make one. It’s simply perfection.
Such a cute idea! Those embellishment mixes are great!
I am collecting (hoarding) Lilac Lane…may have to use one for this! Would love to win some to add to the collection!
Lovely Frame. Thank you for the chance to win! 🙂 I LOVE the 28 Lilac lane stuff! 🙂
I love this project! It’ s perfect for a gift and I just have to make one, or several, for myself!
I Love this, May! My kids would go crazy with a Disney themed pic and confetti glitter sequins goodies inside! definitely gonna try this one! Thanks for a fun idea.
A wonderful idea and project. Live the colors
Super cute frame & shaker. I’m challenged with shakers- every time I make one it just is off somehow. Guess I need to practice more. This is very cute- going to give it a try.
This is so clever! And what an awesome prize! Thank you! Michelle t
What a beautiful frame! I love that color scheme and those tiny leaves are so cute!
This is the best project ever! What a fabulous idea! I want to try this.
What a great idea…I could see some frames like this as a set in the 1/2 bath or the narrow spaces by the front door…
what a really cool idea. I love those sequin, they are so pretty and bright. That green is one of my favorite colors. Thanks for sharing such great ideas.
Beautiful frame! Love the textures, colors and dimension from all the pretty buttons and embellishments!
So pretty! What an excellent idea!
I love a shaker card, so why not a shaker frame? That would be so cute with a beach photo and beachy sequins or a dog photo with your pet sequins and charms! Also, I have journaling cards I don’t use for projects but leave out to inspire me, and they would be fun to try with this technique. Thanks for the ideas, May!
I have not seen these before, but I love them. I like the colors, the idea, the sentiment, everything!
This is such a cute idea may, especially for a gift. I have 5combinations of your Lilac lane button and sequins. I can’t even imagine what the never before seen new combinations could be. The combinations are beautiful. Happy 4th of July! ????????????????????????
It’s all in the details. That was a fun class that sent me outside my comfort zone.
I love looking at the cool album covers I made in that class. I have not taken on a frame.
Great idea.
Ok, I did a frame following one of your classes several years ago and it is still one of my favorite frames ever! I love this shaker frame idea, and would really love an opportunity to win some of your amazing line! Thank you for the opportunity to play along!
What a little beauty.
The shades of green in this set are amazing. Good idea for a little special gift.
What a great idea! A set of these frames with photos of my grand kids would look fabulous.
Really love this idea! Will be on the lookout for a suitable frame.
Love this idea, and I love all of your Lilac lane mixes!! I’m inspired to go try something like this.
Such a neat project, May, and thank you so much for the video! I don’t know if any of it would be big enough, but another alternative to acetate would be clear plastic packaging. Not the thin kind like you get with stamp sets, but thicker–almost hard. Something like Spellbinders packages their dies in. I think “they” call it bubble packaging. I know lots of products are packaged that way. I just think of Spellbinders because theirs has large flat areas. Anyway, just a thought. Thanks again for the great camp so far, and the great giveaways!!! 🙂 ~ Andrea
What a cool idea! I might give that a go. Thanks for the giveaway.
Your frame is gorgeous. Love it. Thanks for a chance to win some 28 Lilac lane goodness.
I love your Lilac Lane doo-dads on frames!
This is so cute! I think it could work to alter a small frame, with the glass too. Interactive decor.
Oh May,
I LOVE this!
Will look for some acetate and little frames now….. I think these would make great Christmas gifts with an inspirational saying for a few good friends!
