| Sisters photo frame |
Where did July go huh?? Anyway let's kick start August with some creations and make it a month to get scrapping !!! I received my very gorgeous DT kit from Veronica last Friday and spent about 10 minutes oohing and aahing at the contents... right up my alley !!!
My first creation is a OTP photo display frame. It was painted in cream/off white paint and then distressed- with sandpaper.
I traced each section onto the backing board and mounted the photos to 3 of the sections.
I used the striped side of Graphic 45 A Ladies Diary Collection Focal Point paper, leaf design side of Graphic 45 A Ladies Diary Collection Timeless Memoir paper and spotted side of Jenny Bowlin - Wren- Accessory Sheet in the other sections.
I added some rub on quotes to the 3 non photo sections.
The top frame piece was then adhered - using double sided tape , to the backing board, over the top of the photos and patterned paper sections.
Next the embellishments were added.
I inked the Dusty Attic Birds on a Branch #2 chipboard piece in aqua and cut it , adhering the 2 sections to the top and bottom of the frame.
A few pearls were scattered amongst the branches.
Other embellishments added - Prima Wood Buttons- Songbird, Petaloo Glass Pins- Peach, Graphic 45 Staples- Metal Buttons, some lace, ribbon and some more pearls
Hope you like the result !!!
Sharon
Love it!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour creation is just beautiful. I love every part. I must get some aqua ink . You have inspired me with your frame, I've 5 sisters I love doing layouts of them. this could be another way. x
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it and it has inspired you Elaine - the ink was just a small versacube aqua ink so nothing fancy - or expensive :)
DeleteThanks for that Sharon , I will have to get it as it looks a great colour especialy on the chip board, did you have to anything to the board before you inked it? x
DeleteNo nothing before i inked. I just smeared the ink roughly across the chipboard so it is not completely covered there are lighter spots and some where the chipboard colour shows throuch - not sure if that shows up in the close ups :)
ReplyDeleteActually the ink pad is Turquoise Elaine - just checked :) Nearly the same as Aqua
ReplyDeleteThanks for that info I'll have to have another search for the Turquoise I did see it but was looking for Aqua didn't think about it.I may even have it & not know. x
