Another post Christmas share from me today...and a much shorted write up you'll be pleased to know lol
This one was a Christmas present for my step-daughter as she has recently moved to a whole new town, new job, miles away to move in with her fabulous girlfriend Rachel.
We are so proud of them both that I wanted to make something special for their first home together.
The totally awesome Krista from Saturated Canary then posted a new image called Freedom and that was it...totally perfect :D
I coloured her with my Graph'it Markers, cut her square on white 300gsm super smooth paper (from That Craft Place) and then put her in a 15x15 cm box frame.
The box frame gave me the room to add the 'junk' as I like to call it from my stash. Flowers, lace, pearls, well you'll see in the pics.
I added the name of the image by hand as I wanted them to know it was from the heart and that was it xx
Here's the pics...
Thank you so much for stopping by at this busy time of year and crafty hugs to you xx
Happy Crafting :D

ReplyDeleteSuch a beautifully colored image and then the frame is fantastic. I'm sure your step daughter will love this. Just love that hair.
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful Sandie, what a fabulous gift! Thank you for joining in the last challenge of the year at Allsorts. Hope you had a lovely Christmas x
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, Sandie! I love the corner groupings, they lend elegance and style to the piece. The contrast between the "bohemian" elegance of the image and the softness of the pearls is quite striking! Thanks so much for leaving this on our front porch, here at 613 Avenue Create, we were delighted to find it there.
