Photo display

  Earlier this year Close to My Heart put out a wreath kit.  The base was made from a thick chipboard.  I've been trying to figure out what I wanted to create with the center piece from that kit.  So after mulling over ideas for months I finally decided.  You'll notice that's a trend with me.  I take forever to research and finally make a decision but I like to be thorough.  I have a plate display from my Grandma that I've been waiting use.  Using several new products from Close to My Heart I set out to make a photo display.

   I painted the circle with black and blue acrylic paint.  At first I tried my water colors but they were too light so I painted right over it.  I used the new constellations stamp set and heat embossed the images using white or silver powders.  I use VersaMark ink when I heat emboss.  I used the new family thin cut to cut out the word family.  There are various papers mixed from the brand new basic fundamentals and enchantment fundamentals  lines.  The embellishments are are mix of things I have in my stash.

  I love showing people how to be consumable with their crafting stash.  This project would be a good gift too!  You could do a theme from a trip, or even a holiday.  I'd like to try this next with an embroidery hoop and material or paper to see how that would work.  I'd love to hear if you plan to try this.  As always you can check out these products and all the new stuff on my site at www.justineharris.ctmh.com.

Sincerely,

Justine
