Angel Frame

Hey Everyone! Ken here with Ken's Kreation's. Well I hope all of the mom's out their had a wonderful Mother's Day. Mother's Day has turned into a tough day since I lost both my Mother and Stepmother at a young age. I was 24 when my Mother passed and then 4 years later I lost my step-mother. This year instead of struggling with the day, I turned to my craft room and found a way to honor them instead. Here is my dedication to all of the people we have lost:

I made this frame using the Scrappy Dew File LITTLE ANGELS. This is a great set that features a variety of angels on clouds. This was a perfect set for the theme of the project. I started with a craft board that I found at home depot. This wood craft board measures two feet long and was 1.28, which is much better than what I would have paid at Hobby Lobby. Then using the LITTLE ANGELS in my Silhouette Studio Software i  build the angel from the base up using the SVG files. Once i had the doll constructed as I like, using my Silhouette Cameo's print and cut feature, I printed the angel at 4.5 inches on the SQUARE 1 PRINTABLE FABRIC. 

I found a curly font that I liked and typed it into my Silhouette Studio Software. When I type I type the font out and then using the corners, I either make my font smaller and larger depending on the project I am using. After i found the size of the font I liked, I used the offset feature at .05 and made the base of the letters. I cut my sentiment on WHITE VINYL and the shadow on DARK BLUE. Here is the link to the "curly fonts" on dafont.com

For the clouds I used one of my favorite Silhouette Materials. I cut out the clouds that come with the LITTLE ANGEL set and cut them on Silhouette's DOUBLE SIDED ADHESIVE MATERIAL. I love this material since both sides are sticky I was able to cut the clouds, peel away the yellow film and stick it down on my board. Then once I had all the clouds down I peeled off the white film and sprinkled  Silhouette WHITE GLITTER,, Martha Stewart TINSEL GLITTER and Martha Stewart CHUNKY GLITTER all over the clouds until covered. I finished the angel off with some Stickles GOLDEN ROD for her halo. 

This was a super fast and easy project and it helped me honor my Mom's on Mothers Day even though they are not here with my in this physical form.
