FCCB Guest Designer Wrap-Up

For the past week I was a guest designer at the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog.  Today's post is my wrap-up for the past week.

I just want to thank everyone at the FCCB for allowing me the opportunity to be a guest designer for their fantastic challenge blog.  I've always enjoyed entering their challenges as a participant and to be asked to give some inspiration for a challenge was pretty awesome.

Anyways, on to the project for the day:

I made a large framed picture of a swan.  I used the "Art Nouveau" cartridge for the swan.  I also used this cartridge for my guest designer project.  You can see that card here.    The frame is matted for a picture of 11"x14."  Since I don't have any patterned card stock that is larger than 12"x12," I used two pieces of patterned card stock, overlapped, as my background.  The swan is on page 64 of the handbook and it was cut at 8 1/4."  I popped up all layers of the wing, except the final cream layer.  I added a little color to the mat with a purple marker.
