Hello friends! Today I have a really neat framed piece to share! I used Our Daily Bread design's latest release, Warm Wishes for inside my frame, and colored with Copics. I added glitter to all the trees but you can't see that! I also added flower soft (Polar White) to the snow on the foreground, and inside the globe I added a few snow sugar crystals. The frame itself is a multi-layered chip board frame by Globecraft Memories. I adhered various designer papers from K&Co Christmas Cheer pad to each layer, and cut with my craft blade. I sponged all the edges with T Holtz Distress Ink in Walnut Stain. I embellished with several punched boughs (MS) and some pearls and pine cone stick ons (MS). Here is the stand that comes with the frame:
Here is how it looks in the natural sunlight.... shows the stamped image better but you can hardly see the globe! LOL! This project's greatest challenge was the photo!

So cute, and detailed, Grace!
I saw a little luminary box you made and it was hanging from a gold-colored hook thingy. Here's the link - can you tell me what the hooky-thing is called, and where you got it?

I just love this Grace! What an awesome creation and love those pine combs, gotta get me some :)
Grace: I'm so glad I stopped by - what a gorgeous creation! The reason I stopped by was because I wanted to let someone on the SSIC Design Team know that Linky is not up for the new (today's) challenge. Several people have commented saying they too cannot find Mr. Linky for this challenge, and i figured you could let the appropriate person know.
I'm so glad I stopped by your beautiful blog. Thanks for sharing this.
