Cluster Frames

 

 

I made two Cluster Frames with the Love the Fall kit to go along with my tutorial. Please DO NOT take offense to the first one its meant to be cute NOT dirty!! My hubby has a shirt with a squirrel on it that says quit staring at my nuts so thats what made me create this one. (That and I was dared!!!) lol

I hope that you all like them both. Just click on the preview to download the one you want!

Hugs,
