Words to Craft By with Graphic 45!

Magda Cortez and Marina BlauKitchen share wonderful projects with us inspired by their favorite quotes. You will love the ideas and tips they give you below. It's going to be a great Friday! Let's see Magda's project first:

"Hi All… Destiny! Decisions Determine Destiny.. True! That’s one of my favorite quotes and the one I like for my Scrapbooking journey.. The more decisions I take the most determined I am to make my dreams come true.. Destiny is the unknown but I think some times we can change it if we wanted.. Determination is the key! So this is today my lovely quote I framed with the beautiful Paper Portrait of a Lady.. the roses give to my quote the elegance I wanted to the frame.. I got this quote at Creativation last month and I think that was the one I wanted to use for my assignment.. I love gold and it was perfect for the idea I had.. what do you think? Decisions Determine Destiny?"

XOXO – Magda Cortez

Tip: To glue paper to glass or metal use Gem Adhesive.. it bonds embellishments to many surfaces including glass, metal or fabric and it dries clear!

Marina BlauKitchen reminds us we're never too old for fairy tales with this amazing altered frame!

"Love frames to exhibit my photos and my favorites quotes too! Choose yours and make it combining with fussy cut paper relative to your quote. It’s very funny and decorative for your walls.

This one reminds me not to forget that we all have a child inside no matter how old you are." ~Marina BlauKitchen

Marina's Snapguide Tutorial

Tip: Try some backgrounds until you get one that looks nice and at the same time allows you to easily read the quote.

Tip: Fussy cut the paper and adapt it to the size of your frame making some layers as if they climbed one or more of their sides.
