Anna Kate Name Frame

My daughter's friend had a birthday recently and I've been wanting to make a name frame, so this was a perfect opportunity. I really wanted a white frame, but couldn't find one, and didn't have time to paint it, so this natural one was the best candidate:

A Triangle Trifold Card

The last card uses Poppin' Pearls in the background. The shimmer of pearl ex is difficult to convey in photographs, but it gets lots of "ooh"s in real life!
