It's the first Friday in May, and time for a new Scrap 'n Stamp Inspiration Hop! Tomorrow is National Scrapbooking Day, and so we decided on a CREATE CRAFTY MEMORIES hop, with inspiration from the Scrap 'n Stamp team and some special guests!
First off, I should mention... I don't scrapbook. I love making cards and tags, and really, that's pretty much the extent of it. But I wanted to make something a little different for this hop, so here's what I came up with:
That's my boy Duncan! And now his photo has a custom frame. I had picked up a pack of plain wooden frames at IKEA pre-pandemic, and so it was more than time to decorate one. I started by giving the frame a couple of coats of gesso to prep the bare wood, and followed with some white acrylic paint. For decoration, I added the three My Favorite Things cats to the top of the frame - I backed each one with some heavy cardboard for durability. From a design standpoint, they should contrast more with the white of the frame, but from Duncan's point of view, grey is just fine. :D The little paw prints on the bottom corners are from an older Lawn Fawn set.
An inspiration hop means there's a prize to be had! One lucky commenter will win a $50 gift code to the Scrap 'n Stamp store. Visit and leave a comment at each inspiration stop for your chance to win. Here's the entire hop order:

That’s cute! Hi Duncan!
Oh my gosh what a cut project! Love it!
Duncan is the cutest especially in a customized frame!
Beautifully framed picture, love the little pawprints and the kitties of course. nice job.
Oh, I just love this! I just recommended that a fellow crafter, whose dog just died, make a remembrance book or photo frame so he won't be so sad. I love this.
Duncan is a handsome boy! Love the frame for his picture!
What a cute frame you've created for your gorgeous Duncan, Lindsey. Love it!
Hellllooo Duncan; what a handsome little fella. Glad you dug into your supplies, Lindsey, and used some of that stash!
What an adorable kitty!!! Love your sweet frame, just so fun!!!
It's great that they are so many different types of crafters so we can learn new ways to combine our passions.
