Chicken Wire Frame Decorated

Chicken Wire Frame Decorated

My daughter bought me a couple of Darcie Craft Wood Frames with chicken wire. I decorated my first one today. I wanted make something to do with summer on one frame. This is what I came up with. All the images were printed to my laser printer then cut out in Cricut Design Space. Then I foiled them with my Anna Griffin Minc.  I found the cutest little clothes pins in the craft section at Walmart.
This is how it turned out! I love it!!

Happy Crafting!!

Just Because Card

Just Because Card

Directions:
I used the Anna Griffins Garden Cards and Embellishments digital cartridge images in Cricut Design Space software.
I set the file to print to my laser printer then cut on the Cricut Explore.
I used gold Minc Foil for the leaves and roses. I used Minc rose foil for the butterfly.
Pictured below is what the file looks like in Cricut Design Space.

Foiled Butterfly Card

Foiled Butterfly Card

I foiled Anna Griffin Butterfly in Rose Foil.
The butterfly was part of  an auto ship from HSN of Anna Griffin's Minc die cuts to foil.
I printed the word Love on my laser printer and foiled it with Rose foil.
I stamped using Memory Box Fluttering Stamp and IndigoBlu Flitter Glu.  After letting the glue set for a short time I foiled the image in Rose foil.
I colored some of the butterflies with the Wine colored Cricut pen.
The Wine Cricut pen matches the Rose Foil perfectly.
It takes a lot practice to perfect this technique. 
The trick is the set time of the glue to dry and knowing when to lift the foil off.
