I thought it might be fun to share a frame (1500p x 2100p). He is one I just finished that I'm sure would look great with your wonderful artwork inside. (shown as a graduation invitation filler photo). Be creative! Even change its color or augment it in some way. Do something outside your normal style.

FRAME LINK: http://i51.tinypic.com/qn1sb7.jpg

If you have one to contribute, post it as a 1500p x 2100p jpeg with a solid color center.

I used http://www.tinypic.com to create a link.

I make mine in PhotoShop with layers which allows you to change the mat color or style and also the color of the revel around the picture. I would attach it but it is a PSD file to retain the layers.

Great looking frame! That is the best gold font I've seen. How do you achieve the effect? It's a bit of a secret. I developed it while making my headstone cards. It is support to look engraved.

I've got some textures which I don't mind sharing, but not sure how to download them or make them available to you guys. They're basically jpeg files and some I've tinted or saturated to change colors.
thought they'd make great backgrounds and have used a few for my cards.

Tom, you're the guru, whats the best way to make them available to everybody?

Best always, Randy

Woops, missed the link in your post for tinypics. Ignore the above and I'll work on downloading a few of those later. Curious to see what you guys can do with them if anything.
