Another Dollar Store Redo



I can not take any credit for coming up with this idea. I saw it on www.tatertotsandjello.blogspot.com She has amazing decorating ideas and you should run over and check out her blog!

I used My Digital Studio to make the background paper because I didn't have any Valentine's paper on hand. It is one of the Love Letter designs. That is something that is soooo nice about My Digital Studio! I am going to print out Amore on My Digital Studio and add it to the blank space at the bottom.

The frame is another one from the Dollar Store. If you dig you can find some really nice frames.
I just got a bag of the decorative gems and used E600 glue to adhere the gems to the glass in the frame.

Valentine's Day Frame




I got this mirror today at our Dollar Store. It was super shiny white. I sanded all of the edges that were raised and then I took watered down black acrylic paint and painted where the raised bumps are on the frame. I wiped it off with a dry paper towel. I finally finished a Love banner that I started last year, so as soon as I get it hung I will take a picture of my whole display.

Accessories: Love Impressions Rub Ons from the Occasions Mini Catalog, Basic Rhinestone Jewels and Pretty in Pink 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon.
