Upcycled plate for SRM Stickers


Altered-plate

So back in October, I envisioned a wall full of decorated pie plates when I did my first one. That seems like an uphill task since I'm only on plate #2... *LOL*


This time round, it features nephew #1 & 2 posing sweetly for the camera back in January [with some sort of bribery involved of my part for sure...since they are both looking at the camera AND smiling...rare feats for children...*winks*]


I LOVE that I managed to use little bits from my "save-it-for-a-rainy-day" stash...scraps of ribbon and twine and felt blooms. Then I added some SRM Stickers and buttons from Purple Pumpkin to complete my pie plate. :)
P/s: Happy weekend friends!

  5. So, so creative and fun, my friend! Love the background you made from book paper. The way you colored it looks like a lovely outdoorsy scene that is so serene and fabulous. Love the round chipboard, too. Works so perfectly to frame the adorable silhouette cut photo. Totally cute cluster of embellies, too!
