Same But Different - Tando

Over on the Tando creative blog the DT Members are having a challenging time - a selection of us were sent the same pieces of chippie and this week we are showing our "Same but different" pieces...we were all given the new straight edged, small frames (for some reason I can't copy the image?! not sure why).

This is what I made with mine...


We were given five complete arches which consisted of the back plate, inner frame and outer edge.  I removed two inners and one outer and this formed my "trio".  Each part was coloured using distress inks and then stamped with various stamps....these were then all spritzed with perfect pearls.  Two stars from the stars grab bag were coated using the fran'tage embossing enamel in bronze with sprinkles of aged black and aged ivory.... the middle section has the inner adhered to the backplate, the stamped quote is one from my stash and I can't remember which make it is....the swirl has been cut from a Tando plaque and was coloured using distress inks and then embossed with one covering of utee.... I glued all the sections together and then using tape bound them together at the back ensuring that they stood freely.....

Pop on over to the Tando Creative blog to see what other members of the DT have created with their pieces.
