Hi Everybody,
Today I am sharing a large picture frame that I have embellished and it now sits in my craft room. I made this some time ago.
The side edges of the frame have been covered in tiny mirror tiles and the front has glass pieces glued to the front.
The little heart is a mirror tile and that and the gemstone are glued to the glass on the outside of the picture, and it sits in quite a deep frame.
For the inside of the picture I have used gold mirror card to create the base to the butterfly and the leaves and they are sitting on top of white leaves and purple ones cut with the same die.

The detailed layer of the butterfly is done in blue and lilac Distress Inked handmade paper with the butterfly image stamped in gold
The background is Distress Oxide inks that have been brushed on and then splattered with gold.
I have trimmed this into a smaller panel and mounted it onto some more white card to leave another border around the design.
I really am quite pleased with this piece.
What do you think ??
Bye for now ...
