Allsorts Challenge 285

Hope you are all having a good weekend.  Saturday again and that means the start of the new challenge over at Allsorts.  This week my lovely teamie Tracy Mouse is the host and she has chosen
Anything But A Card

If you have not yet made any christmas decorations or handmade gifts now is the perfect chance to start them.  The design team have some amazing inspiration to share with you over on the challenge here along with all the details, you can pop over to there blogs to find out how they made their projects and also leave them some love.

I was not sure what l was going to make for this one then l remembered a pack of small photo frames l bought a year or two ago and thought it was about time l transformed them.  My grandaughter loves purple so this will be perfect for her bedroom and l just know she is going to love it - l really enjoyed making this so l am going to do a couple more as gifts.
