Looking great, Rose -- shame it's almost impossible to get the effects of those special threads in a photograph, isn't it? I suppose like plays, you can say of photographs that 'the best are but shadows; and the worst are no worse, if imagination amend them', so we'll let our imagination add the different kinds of purple!

I love purple ... sparkly purple looks amazing. It looks great as a Tigger frame Rose. You are well steaming ahead there though ... there must be sparks coming off that needle!

I feel this is a perfect finish. I added a few stickers to the matting and "WHA-LAA"

That's perfect alright

Really lovely Rose

Yup, I'll agree with that! Totally perfect Rose.
When are you giving it to your daughter? I'm sure she's going to LOVE this.

That's such a great (and quick -- my word how do you do it?) finish, it looks perfect!

Do you keep a stack of frames just in case? And do you cut your own mats? (And if so what do you use? and is it difficult?)

That's lovely, Rose and nice framing

Rose · Post by **Rose** » Mon Apr 21, 2008 3:46 pm

No Mabel I don't have the extra cash to keep frames on hand and I would never know what size to have. This frame I picked up on the way home with my daughter the other day. I told her I had a 5X7 picture I needed to frame and would she help me pick out a nice frame. She chose this one and the mat was already in it. I thought it was a bit dull so I added the stickers.

I am going to give it to her just before we leave to take her back to school. She had a 3 day week-end this time.
