Heartfelt Creations Pansy Frame

Good morning!

This photo was from a photoshoot I did with my niece

a few years ago...She is so photogenic!

I decided to do a frame for my project this week so

I went to the drug store and bought a cheap wood frame.

I sanded it, painted it then sanded it again to distress

the painted surface making it much easier for glue to

stick to the frame, plus I love the distressed look.
