Here is a project I made a while ago and thought you may like to try for yourself ...I bought this black plastic frame from a local Home bargain store for 79p ...yes 79p and I got to thinking it would look so much more exciting if I added some pretty flowers and empire gold wax .I love how it turned out .I used my Tim Holtz tattered floral die. to make the flowers which I embossed with a dotty embossing folder. I then added gold pebeoempire gold wax over the top to bring out the embossed texture I added a simple black pearl to the centre .The added leaves are made using sue Wilson leaf dies. The frame was then waxed in the corners using the same wax .I added a gorjuss girl image just to finish it but you could easily add a fave photo....how cute is that for 79p......

ReplyDeleteWow, gorgeous upcycle job here, bravo!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh you have done a smashing job with the frame and to think you only paid 79p for the frame you have made it look a very expensive piece of art indeed and I just love the digi you have chosen to finish it off. It is just PERFECT.
