Altered Rock Star Frame with Kristin Greenwood



Altered Rock Star Frame
Curtesy Boutique Designer
Kristin Greenwood
I find scrapping my son so much more challenging than scrapping my three girls, so I love it when I see great ideas for boy layouts. This altered frame and layout by Kristin is a perfect mixture of edge and embellishment. 

The close up below shows the fantastic way in that she embellished our chalkboard hearts. She gave them a hard masculine edge by embossing them then rubbing them with gold and silver ink. I also love how she distressed the edges of the fabric rosettes - the perfect way to play down their ruffled lightness.

This Decorative Gift Jar is the perfect way to present any little gift of appreciation. You could fill your gift jar with freshly baked cookies, candy, a pretty piece of jewelry and so much more. There are always times where you need a sweet and simple gift for someone. A hostess gift, a friendly neighbor, or for someone you think could use a little pick-me-up.

The first thing you will need to do to create this project is gather your materials (listed above).

Step 1: Using the ⅛” hole punch, punch a hole in your chalkboard heat and run the red and white baker’s twine through.

Step 2: I used my hot glue gun to add my large decorative button to the Red & White Polka Dot Ruffle Flower.

Step 3: Again I used my hot glue gun to attach the white pom pom ribbon to the wooden lid of the jar.

Step 4: I adhered the coordinating patterned paper to the jar using regular double sided tape.

Step 5: The final touch is to adhere the ruffle flower and the chalkboard tag to the lid, again using hot glue. Taaaa Daaaa! You have a beautiful package for that sweet little something for someone special.

Curtsey Boutique Designer

With Icepocalypse 2 we had a bit of internet trouble last week here in Atlanta and weren't able to post a few our designers adorable Valentine's Day projects so we are going with the cie lav vie mindset and sharing them this week.




Connie used our craft bags to create these wonderful treat bags. They could easily be adapted for any number of holidays, birthday party favors or even shower thank you gifts.

Each Bag was folded a bit differently and Connie provided a visual below for you to able to repeat the steps yourselves.
