Mixed Bag Monday Challenge #11 DIY!

[joscie]

My challenge for this week's mixed bag Monday Challenge is to use those brand new super awesome, infinitely customizable Do It Yourself frames (http://www.peppermintcreative.com/forum/../index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=820), edges (http://www.peppermintcreative.com/forum/../index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=818), and/or flourishes (http://www.peppermintcreative.com/forum/../index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=819)!These products come both as separate layers and as layered TIFF or PSD files so you can color the doodle, the element and the stroke. You can use patterned papers or sample colors from your pictures or patterned papers or ... the possibilities make my head spin.
My sample layout uses the DIY frames where I used it as a clipping mask for patterned paper and DIY flourishes where I used a sampled color.

you will have to excuse my literalness of the dyi!

i do not have any of the dyi elements or the minty bucks to buy em so i made do. i used the freestyle swirls and took them apart and dropped papers on them then remerged...same for the doodle frame.
