Altered Photo Frame

Ways to Use It #170
Good mornig to all !
Today's WT challenge on SCS is using photos .
I rarely ever used my pic on a project, but when I found the photo frame at a dollar store with an Acrylic C on it, I ended up using a recent pic from Hawaii.
The C is detachable, so I was able to alter and add the paper in the back and was able to do some stamping using the Travel Post. I added Primas and put buttons on the center of the flowers. I CB the main BG on the acrylic frame, and the buttons were mounted on top of the frame for dimension. I did the same thing with the HPH, mounted it on top of the frame.

Thanks for stopping by.

RECIPE:

Stamps: Travel Post, French Script,
Defining Alphabet, Define Your Life
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Whisper White ,
Buckaroo Blue (retired)
Ink: Chocolate Chip, White Craft,
Buckaroo Blue (retired)
Accessories: Lots and lots of Buttons,
HPH, Grosgrain ribbon, Primas

Tools: CB and folder, glue dots. Glue Stick


I stamped the Travel Post stamps first, and then stamped French Script in White Craft ink. I used glue stick around it after to adhere
the paper on the back of the acrylic letter C.
