I knew that I wanted to create a background that would make my framed couple the focal point. I started with a square piece of black chipboard, which I ink-stenciled with the white ink and the Dreamweaver Stripes stencil. A narrow panel of ivory cardstock was ink-stenciled with the Damask stencil again using Dark Cashmere and Venetian Lace die inks from Clearsnap® . Velvet and lace ribbon from was adhered along the edges of this panel. Now I could put the rest of this together...
The acetate piece with the music and silhouette were adhered to the panel. The frame was popped up over the top using dimensional glue dots. To embellish the frame, I stamped the flower image from the Fiesta set multiple times on the scraps of music sheet, and spritzed them with Clearsnap Premium Dye Ink Sprays in Banana and Chocolate. I cut them, loosely following the line of the design, and curled and "smooshed" them into layered flowers to adhere along the edges. Some plaid ribbon was looped and tied with a piece of twine and a vintage button to add to the frame. The same ribbon was wrapped around the handle of the wood frame. The final touch was two Dreamweaver die cut ovals layered, with the Stampendous Cling Mr. & Mrs. stamped in black ink. This too was popped up on the framed project. Oh, wait...I forgot the most important elements that I added...glue on the edges on the flowers with Stampendous Gold Crushed Glass Glitter for extra vintage charm.
