Peacock

The silhouette store had an easter sale on so i went looking and found this beautiful file and had to use it immediately...
I have several frames waiting to be used and i liked this one for the framed picture...so i looked in my stash and found this lovely spotted paper and some black card...


I used my sil babes to cut the file on the paper and needed to cut the black card to fit inside the frame..my friend always is amazed that i manage to cut the card to size and i showed her the trick to it last week...when you buy a frame it invariably has a paper flyer inside...so if you remove that and then cut around it...then it should fit..its as easy as that...

This may seem obvious to us seasoned crafters but there you go....

Because the file was intricate i used stick and stay spray adhesive to stick the peacock onto the black card

When it had dried i popped it into the frame.

Thank you for looking
love debby xx

  1. Deb's I love it. Can I order one with an ecru background and slighly creamer overlay so that it looks a little shabby chic ? I am looking for things to put on the walls upstairs in my study.
