Faux stitching, fussy cutting and a beautiful image of Peggys Cove
Back to making cards!! This image has been in my stash for a long time because a portion of the sky was not well stamped. I was looking in my stash for an image that would fit into this frame (also from my stash) and this one I thought was pretty close so I just fussy cut along the horizon and when I put it in the frame the lighthouse overlapped the frame! I love it!! I watercoloured the image (PSX), added a blue decorative paper to make the sky, trimmed the outside edges to fit in the frame and adhered all the pieces in place. I adhered the top of the lighthouse to the front of the frame with a bit of 3D foam tape which makes it stand out very nicely from the scene. The frame had already been embossed with a distressed embossing folder so I simply added some faux stitching to give it a bit more definition. I adhered this large element to a gray card and I was done!! An card for any occasion!! Therese
