Bluebell Woods framed.

 well my BFF may have taken a little longer to finish her bluebell woods  but wow she got it framed super fast.

Now I too went frame hunting in my stash and also found a frame that I thought would suit. Then I did nothing with it. I needed a mount cutting to fit exactly because of my measuring ohps and the very very close to being non existent bottom edge.

I knew that I had some bits of mount board that would probably do, both blue and brown. I thought I knew where they were. They weren't! I have obviously done that mid sort move something to a different place and then managed to forget the new place and only recall the old place!

No rush my BFF was still stitching......then all of a sudden she was done and framed and my woods were feeling a bit left behind.

Then I spotted something and thought it was worth a try.....and here is is framed.....

I like the warm brown mount with its slight sheen, it does not have the normal angle to the edge, it is a straight cut as that is not mount board. It is a bit of recycling from something that was gifted to me. 

A box of chocolates, Thornton's if memory serves me, now I must admit that I recommend the wonderous many uses of the box a bit more than the chocolates themselves which tend to be a bit sweet for my taste now (I rather like Bendix bitter mints but the box there has not found it way into my crafts yet).

I like the warm cosy and somewhat opulent effect of my frame choice and it brings out the light blue of the fabric. I also like the light airy fresh feeling my BFF's framing choice gives her version.

We finish as we started, the same yet very different.
