G45 Travelogue Frame

I found this really cute frame in the clearance section of Hobby Lobby. 



I decided to use Graphic 45's Travelogue paper and cute little embellishments - I love the colors in the paper.  I used Ranger's white paint dabber to soft up the gold and give it a more vintage look.  It is hanging in our guest bathroom and I love it's uniqueness.

One present down....





and how many more Christmas presents to make?  Oh, I don't think I want to know.  I've got a HUGE project planned for my son - I'll share another time.  Here's a frame I made for a dear friend.  (I got the frame at M's for $1).  I colored the Tildas with copics, made the rosettes, and grabbed the rest from my stash.   The flowers are the cutest little primas!  I love the color of paint I had - it looks very copper-y/rich.
The paper is wonderful Graphic 45 Christmas past, and if  you look closely I've got some Tim Holtz tissue tape on it.
