Floating Framed

Hello Cardz TV Gallery friends! Brenda here from Friends Craftin' With Friends. First off I must apologize because I didn't have my post up. I thought today was Tuesday and that I had the day to get it up. Wrong! So please forgive me for being super late. I did a floating frame for some friend's anniversary along with a tag to hang from it. I will be apologizing to my friends as well, they are more like family to us, but I had all intentions of giving this to them for their anniversary back in Oct. Yes, back in Oct.!!! I had forgotten all about cutting it out and putting it on glass. So when I realized I was late for my post, I got busy. The SVG file I used came from SVG Attic. I used a system's font for their last name that was in my computer and stretched and sized their name to suit my space, I also sized and stretched the SVG "M" to get what I wanted. I cut this on my Cricut Explore on the vinyl setting. It cut perfectly with the "kiss" cut. Using transfer tape, I placed it on the cleaned glass using my T-Ruler to get it as straight as I could. Trust me even with a ruler I don't get things straight, this is as good as it gets with me. lol

I then set making the tag. I had a pre-cut tag that came in an order, it also came with the flowers. So I took some scrap paper and dressed up the tag, added a bow I had already had made from using scraps using the SU Bow Punch. Then I stamped my sentiments on the tag, tape it on the back of the frame and let it hang over. The Cardz TV Stamps I used are "Congratulations" and "Count Your Blessings" and you can find them here. I crossed out the "I" and "my" to put "we" and "our". 

Please accept my apologies once again for being so late with this post. I hope you all have a wonderful week! Crafty hugs, Brenda
