mothers day project.xx

good evening all.first off i need to apologise for not visiting any of your blogs over the last couple of days but when i`ve not been at work or doing my mum/wife duties i have been making my mums and mils cards and this project here.lol.
lets just say i have stressed myself silly but i got there in the end.also apologies for a few blurry pics, my phone needs charging.

and here is the cause of my stress.i bought a cheap plastic photo frame, piccy of the original frame further down.i originally tryed to paint it with acrylic paint so i could use my distress inks but it was a total disaster so a quick dash to the diy store and a can of plasti coat later and i tryed again.so products used are cheap plastic frame.the original sticker removed.2 coats of white matt plasti coat and then 2 coats of cream.a mixture of glossy glue and cosmic shimmer powder.whilst still wet i sprinkled more cosmic shimmer powder over the frame and then i used a scrunched up piece of bubble wrap and dabbed all over.a papermania build a butterfly and a few buttons later and voila.

the buttons



the butterfly




and lying down.pity the shimmer doesn`t show up in the pics.





and how it started off.
well i hope you will all forgive me for being absent and i hope you all think it was worth it.lol.thanks so much for popping by and i promise to be back to commenting soon.luv coops.xx
