Well, to start, the other day I discovered that the teeny, tiny, craft store in town carries GRAPHIC 45 papers!! I was shocked! Of course I stocked up!!! Love their stuff - so vintage! Anyhow, I had picked up a few nic nacks, crafts for the kids and a wooden frame the last time I was at Michaels. I decided to pimp up the frame and give it a vintage face lift using my new papers.
I added a few prima flowers, added some distress crackle paint to the grungeboard and that's about it! The chipboard letters are from Anna Griffin - so velvetty!
I traced the bottom of one of my patterned papers from Sassafrass Lass to make the border along the roof.
Gorgeous vintage tag and butterflies - all Graphic 45!
I totally love the way it turned out - would make a nice gift don't you think?? I may try my hand at these altered projects a little more often!!
Hello! Welcome to my blog. My name is Tara and I am a wife and mother to 3 beautiful children who are the heart and soul of my projects. I started scrapping in 2008 and loved it immediately. What a wonderful outlet to explore my love of crafting and photography. Thanks for stopping by.
