WF18 ART4U

I made a frame for my piece by using extra layers of heavy watercolor paper. I have always liked the look of art that includes the frame as part of the project, so that is what I tried to do here. After gluing on the frame, I cut a leaf die from the same watercolor paper and glued it to the project. I patted oxide inks on my craft mat, spritzed them with water and smooshed the project through the inks, and also using a brush to apply inks in some areas. I stamped the bird using Seedless Preserves oxide ink, smudged the edges a bit with a finger dauber, fussy cut it and pop dotted it to the piece. I used a stencil and white matte stencil paste at the top. I then added flowers around the bottom.
