Home sweet home

Well it's my turn over on the WOW! blog to post today and the theme this month is altered art.....
So I decided to alter a chipboard photo frame.... I made a wall hanging from it.

This is what I created...
 This photo shows a close up of the flowers in the bottom corner. They have all been dipped into embossing powder. This is such a fun technique to do....... the paper you make your flowers has water in it, so when you add the flowers to the embossing powder they go all bubbly as the water comes out of the flower..... It's great fun and gives a brilliant effect.
 This one shows a close up of the top right hand corner - can you tell I was having a lot of fun making these flowers!
 For this picture I put the flash on. I thought it showed off just how much sparkle you can achieve by using embossing powders.
If you like to use embossing powders and fancy a go at altering something, we would love to see what you create. Make sure you leave a link to your project over on the WOW! blog and we will come over and leave you some sparkly love.....

Off to do some more crafting now.... have a fabby day x
Happy crafting
