Colorful embossed decor saying "Embrace Beautiful Chaos" in a white frame, surrounded by flowers and crafts. Pink background with text.

Hello Lovelies! I am all about some Craft Room signage for Tim Holtz and Sizzix's Vault Texture Fades Embossing Folders release! I have a rainbow problem and love flowers so of course I had to make something bold and bright with the Botanical folder.

With the intense color, my "Embrace Beautiful Chaos" needed to be neutral and a bit quieter. As long as I'm explaining how I got to making this Tim Holtz Botanical Framed Decor... I went for the contrast between the vellum and metal butterflies to add both delicacy and "weight" to the make. Apparently there is a method to my madness/chaos!

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Trim Distress Watercolor Cardstock to 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and emboss with the Botanical 3D Texture Fades Embossing Folder.
Place inside a Splat Box and spray generously with Distress Spray Stain and let dry.
Mix a pea-sized amount of Perfect Pearls with water and mist the embossed panel to add a subtle shimmer. Let dry.
Die-cut the letters twice for the sentiment out of white cardstock and the butterflies out of vellum.
Add traces of Foundry Wax to the vellum butterfly and heat set.
Use a paint brush to add more Foundry Wax to the Idea-ology Butterfly and heatset.
Use a nail file or sanding sheet to distress the metal butterfly.
Highlight the embossed texture by brayering Picket Fence Distress Paint. Let one layer dry and then repeat to deepen contrast.
Adhere chipboard behind the embossed panel to make it more sturdy and then attach to 6" x 9 white cardstock panel and place in the frame to finish.
