Framed.....

Hi there...
I needed a bit of rest and relaxation today after a rather stressful day yesterday....so I thought I would alter the little wooden photo frame that has been languishing for an age in my craft room.....

It started off looking something like this....this is actually the other frame I have and the 'frame' bit is the other way round...foolishly I didn't take a photo before I started..........I am almost sure I got them from PaperArtsy but I can't see them on the website now... anyways, I'm waffling now.....

I painted it with my dabbers and then put a thickish layer of  Rock Candy crackle paint on it..after it had dried I toned it down a little with my Walnut Stain Distress Ink....I used the fabulous Dylusions stamps 'Around The Edge' they are stamped with Versafine and clear embossed and then coloured in with slightly watered down acrylic paint...The top looked a little bare so I added some buttons and a metal word...

And here it is with the photo...

Memories of the most fantastic birthday with my gorgeous friend Gez

Thanks for looking I'll catch up with you soon...I have some 'Secret' Book pages to show you......
