my version of the framed collage

Thank you Nancy for letting me know that this project idea came from the blog called: http://www.pickledpaperdesigns.blogspot.com/ . It is a great blog, and they do amazing work...please, go check it out :)!

Okay now back to the frame I have :)! I became brave and I stamped the sentiments on my black picture frame, using my white VersaMagic "Cloud White" dew drop ink pad. It does wipe off, I tried it and so if I don't like it I can take it off :)! If I like it and you all think it looks ok, I will spray the frame with my acryllic spray so that it will stay on the frame and not be rubbed off.

This last image is of what the frame/collage looks like once I was done...unfortunately, my middle child didn't see the glass sitting on top of a bookcase ( a safe spot for it I thought) and he came bouncing in and it broke from falling off. I think it looks better without the glass in it anyways :)! Ok, so let me have it...please give me your opinions on what you think of this frame and collage because I may give it to a friend for a gift. The stamped sentiments do go all around the frame, just can't see them in this picture except on the bottom of the frame.

I thought this collage needed something in the bottom left corner so I stamped a snowflake, cut it out and then attached it using mini pop dots. I also shifted the "Happy Holidays sentiment over a bit, because it was being covered by the frame a bit. So this is the second picture of my framed collage picture...looks better I think :), what do you think now??
