Here's what I used:
2 unfinished picture frames
2 pieces of scrapbook paper
2 pieces of felt
Bahama Blue craft paint
Fern craft paint
Walnut Distress Ink
Mini Clothes Pin
Mini Metal Clip
Mod Podge
Sandpaper
Here's what I did:
First, I painted both frames.
One Bahama Blue and one fern.
(I used Distress Ink on the green one...just to see if I liked it. lol)
I traced the outline of the frames on the
scrapbook paper and cut out the outline.
I put mod podge on the front of the frame
and placed them front down on the paper.
Once dry, I used an xacto and cut off the excess paper.
I sanded the edges and distressed with Distress Ink.
I cut felt pieces to size and place them in the center.
I cut felt pieces to size and place them in the center.
I tied hemp string around both and
added a mini clothes pin and the metal clip to each.
Yes? They turned out super cute!
