NAME IN ART


NAME IN ART...


I GOT INSPIRED TODAY WHEN I SAW A POST ON A BLOG CALLED
MY 3 MONSTERS. IT LOOKED LIKE A FAIRLY EASY PROJECT
WITH ALOT OF PUNCH SO I GOT BUSY ON THE COMPUTER DOWN LOADING
IMAGES FROM FLICKER.PUT THE PROJECT TOGETHER IN PHOTOSHOP AND
PRINTED IT OUT ON MY PRINTER.
GOT A OLD FRAME AND PAINTED IT BLUE.THE MATTING WAS WHITE AND
WAS A LITTLE SCRUFFED UP SO I PAINTED THAT TOO WITH A COLOR
CALLED SUADE.

TAKE A LOOK
BEFORE...


PAINTING OF THE MATTING


THIS IS WHAT THE PICTURE LOOKED LIKE BEFORE I FRAMED IT...



AFTER...

I LOVE IT. AND I WAS SO HAPPY WITH IT I HUNG IT RIGHT UP..
ITS AN EASY PROJECT AND MAKES A GREAT GIFT.
I USED MY FIANCE'S LAST NAME, MY LAST NAME AND THE YEAR WE
BOUGHT OUR HOUSE. BUT YOU CAN USE ANY COMBINATIONS OF LETTERS YOU
WANT..

SINCE I POSTED THIS I DECIDED TO MAKE
MY IN-LAWS A PRINT FOR CHRISTMAS.


I LOVED THE WAY IT LOOKED IN THIS NICE THICK FRAME. I GOT THE FRAME AT
MARSHALLS THEY HAD A REALLY GREAT SALE ITS A $40 DOLLAR FRAME AND
I ENDED UP GETTING IT FOR $15.00. AND THE FRAME IS THICK ENOUGH SO THAT YOU COULD JUST STAND IT UP IF YOU DONT WANT TO HANG IT ON THE WALL.

THE DEAL WAS SO GREAT I PICKED UP ONE FOR MYSELF AND DECIDED TO CHANGE THE FRAME ON MY PROJECT... ILL USE THE OTHER FRAME FOR ANOTHER PICTURE DOWN THE LINE. A GIRL CAN CHANGE HER MIND...
