Howdy.
Made a card today for the Limelight Papercrafts sketch Challenge #66 using RED. I checked my calendar to see the upcoming birthdays and noticed there are several male b-days coming up in the family so that set the tone. Once again, I've used a star on a male card. I had all the parts mostly done and then set it aside to fold some laundry and then it came to me...
WIRE! I love when that happens.
You step away from a project for a bit and sometimes an idea just pops in your mind.
Cool. So, I dug out the MM wire that I've had for 10 yrs and played.

Here's the result:
Here's what the original frame sticker looked like.
I cut the middle out with a craft knife and replaced it with the BG paper.
Supplies:
Paper: BG "Oliver"
Ink: Stazon and Faded Jeans Distress
Star: Use "George" cart and cut it at 2 1/2" three times for depth
Misc: floss, Recollections glittered frame, MM wire

I have a place in my heart for plaid patterns and polka dots. I think you know already that I love this card. Such a clever idea to add some patterned paper to that frame. Your card is gorgeous!
Oh, the patterns and wire in this are so much fun! They just make me happy! Great job, Kelly! :)
