I'm so behind on everything "artsie" but I do have good excuses--there's just always so much going on with our large family! I do want to state for the record, though, that I am never late for appointments or for work--just posting on my blog and art! Here's what I did with the given image this past week for Art Creations Friday:
I covered a papier maché frame with some old scrapbook paper I've had forever, and then changed the hue on the image using my photo program on my computer. I printed that out, glued it to a thin piece of cardboard, and then colored the picture with chalks. The word "pretty" is from a page out of that antique book I have (that's falling apart)--I then added glitter with Stickles, and while it was drying, embellished the frame with paper flowers, (the button in the middle of the large flower was an ivory-colored antique button I dyed with alcohol inks), and a flourish stamp and glitter. Then I slipped the picture into the frame, and it was finished! I'm including the original image so you can see the difference--this was so much fun! (You can get a much better look at the little details if you click on the photos!)
