I used one of my blocks of wood to mount this frame on. The back and front pieces are the postage stamp die cut. I cut a rectangle out of the middle and embossed it with a diffuser texture fade. Coloured it with salty ocean, weathered wood and broken china distress paints. Once dried I added onyxite treasure god to enhance the embossing. French roast fresco paint was used to paint the pediment and the dots were created with white enamel accents.
The LP image was stamped onto a piece of kraft card in black stazon. The TH chit-chat stickers were used for the words.
And as you can see, it was a gorgeous day so I was able to take the photo outside!!
There is a brand new monthly challenge site just started up called Our Creative Corner. Their first theme is 'anything goes', so in order to support them, I am entering with this piece.
