Floral frame

I'm sure I'll still be making up these frames when everyone else has moved on, but I do love them! Particularly when they can be used to frame 3D flowers made from the Punch and Stamp sets.
This is the Square frame with corners made with the Rose Deco frame die set. I've also used the scalloped squares and square dies sets to add a frame on top with the same paper (First Edition, Floral Pavillion).
Inside I have added 3 flowers made with the Carnation, sweet William, Peony Punch and Stamp set with inked petals to match the background paper.

      Thanks, Ali. I have used Ivory Linen card from Papermill for these flowers and inked the edges before shaping the petals with tweezers. The flowers can really be made with anything from vellum to card (including patterned paper and book pages) to give a different effect.
